Dental cleaning is the removal of tartar and plaques from your teeth and gum lines, therefore reducing inflammation and improving the health of your gum. Plaque is sticky film that forms on the teeth which contain bacteria and develops when food mixes with saliva. However, plaque accumulation can lead to gum disease, including inflation of gums, also known as gingivitis. If you do not treat gingivitis, it can advance to periodontitis causing more dental issues. Periodontitis is a severe infection that destroys the bone that supports the teeth, accordingly you should schedule a routine dental checkup with McClane Dentistry.
Oral Cancer Screening
Oral cancer screening is a thorough check-up of your mouth performed by a dentist to look for cancerous and precancerous signs in your mouth. The main aim behind this screening is to detect the disease at an early stage so that proper measures can be taken to cure or prevent it . The test might not reveal the results instantly, and therefore, the doctor might recommend the patient return in two weeks. In the meantime, they will scrape off the cells from the affected area where they see signs of oral cancer and send it for biopsy.
