Prevention is the key to minimising the need for extensive dental treatment and to assist in maintaining a healthy smile for life. It is important you attend regular checkup appointments so Dr Rammo is able to monitor your oral health and detect any problems early, when they are much easer to treat.
As part of your regular examination, we will remove plaque and tartar from your teeth, and provide valuable advice on effective oral hygiene techniques and other preventive dental care. You can expect your hygiene appointment to last approximately one hour.
It is important that everyone, including children have their teeth professionally cleaned at least annually. If tartar forms below the gum-line, bacteria can accumulate, creating a number of other dental problems. Tartar is too hard for you to remove yourself by brushing and flossing and its build-up can have devastating effects such as gum disease and even tooth loss.
