Maintaining optimal dental health involves a combination of professional care and diligent at-home oral hygiene practices. At North Bay Smiles in Petaluma, California, we emphasize the significance of routine oral care and its pivotal role in preventing dental issues such as plaque build-up, which can lead to a myriad of further problems. Regular visits to our practice, coupled with proper brushing, flossing, and dietary habits at home, form a comprehensive strategy for preserving oral health. By understanding the relationship between professional dental care and personal oral hygiene, individuals can achieve and maintain a healthy smile for years to come.
In an ideal world, patients should visit the dentist every six months for an examination and cleaning. During this visit, you can expect the following steps:
Good oral hygiene at home is essential for maintaining healthy teeth and gums. Brush teeth twice daily using fluoride toothpaste, floss daily to remove plaque between teeth, and rinse with a mouthwash for added protection. Limit sugary snacks and drinks and visit your North Bay Smiles regularly for check-ups and cleanings to prevent dental problems.
