Dental cleanings are a routine part of your preventive care exam and the foundation of lifelong oral health. Dental cleanings are a simple, painless process that can help prevent the development of gum disease, tooth decay, cavities, and tooth loss. Helping our patients achieve optimal oral health is a priority for our team at Solberg & Miller Dentistry in Altamonte Springs, FL.
We recommend patients visit the dentist every six months for a preventive care visit which includes a comprehensive dental exam, advanced screenings for complex dental problems, and a professional dental cleaning. Our goal is to help patients maintain a healthy, functional smile through comprehensive family dental care. Our team of dentists works with patients of all ages to help them make informed decisions regarding their oral health.
Tips To Develop Good Oral Hygiene Habits
- Brush your teeth for at least two minutes, twice daily.
