Why Our Practice Recommends Preventive Cleanings Every 3 Months to Some Patients
There are 700 reasons
700 is the number of species of bacteria that inhabit the space between your gums & teeth as well as throughout your mouth. Disrupting the bacteria every three months with a thorough, professional dental cleaning prevents the toxins, gases & acids these bugs produce from causing damage to your gums and jaw bone.
Reason 701
It is important to understand that the bacteria are not only present in your mouth. They travel throughout your circulatory system including your brain. For the last 25 years, the science has shown that these bacteria and their toxins damage the cells that line the arteries that line your heart.This leads to plaque and therefore hardening of the arteries.
