You should do something about plaque and tartar formation on a daily basis. By thoroughly brushing at least twice a day and flossing at least once, you can keep bacteria and food particles off of your smile and prevent the accumulation of harmful substances that raise your risk for problems like tooth decay and gum disease. On a consistent recommended basis, you should also count on your regular dental exams and cleanings to protect you against these materials. Teeth cleanings at our Rowlett, TX dentist’s office provide particularly important protection against tartar buildup—while you can remove plaque deposits before they harden to tartar, deposits that are already present will remain until your next preventive treatment.
