Just as you need to look after the rest of your body to look good, so you need to care for your teeth and gums. When you visit Dr. Lomartire for dental cleaning and prevention treatment, the doctor will examine your teeth fully and usually take a full set of x-rays at the same time to see what is going on inside your gums and jaw bone.

Once completed, the doctor will evaluate the findings and put together a plan of action. This will involve you visiting the practice for regular check-ups.

Cleaning and polishing: This will remove tartar from your teeth as well as plaque, which is formed from bacteria. If left in place, inflammation will eventually occur. He will then polish your teeth to make them look good, removing stains at the same time.

Evaluating your gums: Your gums and the bone underneath your teeth will be carefully checked to ensure that there are no problems or any disease developing.

X-rays: These will allow Dr. Lomartire to check inside your jaw bone and teeth for such things as bone loss, problems with development, teeth in the wrong position, tumors, abscesses and any other hidden problems.

Existing dental work: Dr. Lomartire will check all fillings, crowns, bridges, implants etc. for any damage or signs of wear and tear.

Did you know that thousands of people every year are diagnosed with oral cancer? This disease can be devastating and even deadly if left untreated for too long. That’s why diagnosing oral cancer in its earliest stages is so crucial to the treatment process. Dr. Lomartire can quickly and comfortably scan for oral cancer as a part of your routine dental check up. The doctor will be looking for any tissue abnormalities that could suggest its presence.

Everyone should consider having dental cleaning and preventative work on a regular basis. Good dental hygiene and detection of any problems early on can help you avoid more serious issues later, such as gum disease or tooth decay. This does not mean that you should not continue to take care of your teeth at home. As well as cleaning your teeth carefully you should always watch out for any signs of inflammation of the gums, damage to the teeth or possible oral disease.
