Preventive Dentistry in Wichita, KS
Preventative care is the foundation of dentistry, and routine professional cleanings are crucial to preventative care. Not only do cleanings help keep your teeth free from decay, but they also preserve your gum health. Gum disease can contribute to systemic disease, so it is vital that you receive regular, thorough cleanings.
Dr. Steven understands that patients often don’t look forward to their twice-yearly cleanings, so he uses a hypersonic scaler to maximize your comfort and minimize your treatment time. There is minimal “scraping” with a hypersonic scaler. Instead, the scaler vibrates faster than sound to help remove plaque and tartar. When compared to a manual scaler, a hypersonic scaler is quicker and gentler on your teeth and gums.
It is important to visit us at Dold Family Dental at least every six months for a cleaning to maintain your oral health. Make your appointment today by calling us at (316) 202-8588.
