🦷 Why Professional Dental Cleanings Are So Important

Brushing and flossing at home are a great start, but they can’t do it all! A professional dental cleaning helps keep your teeth and gums healthy long-term—even if you take great care of your smile at home.

✨ Remove What Brushing Can’t
Plaque can harden into tartar in hard-to-reach areas. Once that happens, only a professional cleaning can remove it.

🛡️ Prevent Cavities & Gum Disease
Bacteria in plaque can lead to tooth decay and gum inflammation. Regular cleanings help lower your risk and catch issues early—before they turn into bigger problems.

😁 Fresher Breath & Brighter Smiles
Cleanings help remove surface stains and bacteria that cause bad breath, leaving your smile feeling fresh and clean.

❤️ Support Overall Oral Health
Dental cleanings also give your dental team a chance to check your gums, teeth, and existing dental work to keep everything on track.

📅 Most patients benefit from cleanings every six months, but your dentist can recommend the schedule that works best for you.

A healthy smile starts with prevention—and professional cleanings are a big part of that!

Bleeding gums aren’t “normal.” 🚩
They’re often an early sign your gums need extra attention. Dr. Coccaro focuses on keeping your foundation healthy because gums support everything. 🦷💪

If you’ve noticed bleeding, tenderness, or bad breath that won’t quit… let’s take a look.

🦷➡️❤️ Your mouth is not “separate” from the rest of your body. The connection between oral health and overall health is real, and gum inflammation can impact more than just your smile. Bleeding gums aren’t normal, they’re a warning sign. 🚩

Keep up with cleanings, brush, floss, and don’t ignore changes.

🦷 Do your teeth hurt when you drink something cold or hot?

That sharp twinge could be tooth sensitivity—and it’s more common than you think 😬

✨ Common causes include:
• Worn enamel
• Receding gums
• Teeth grinding or clenching
• Whitening products
• Acidic foods and drinks

🪥 When enamel wears down or gums pull back, the sensitive inner part of the tooth gets exposed. That’s when cold, heat, and sweets start to sting.

💡 The good news?
Tooth sensitivity is often treatable! Desensitizing toothpaste, fluoride treatments, and gentle brushing techniques can help. In some cases, your dentist may recommend additional solutions based on the cause.

😁 Don’t ignore tooth sensitivity—it’s your teeth asking for attention.

📅 If sensitivity is interfering with your daily life, we’re here to help.

It’s National Cheese Lovers’ Day 🧀🎉
Good news: cheese is basically a snack that your teeth actually approve of. 😄
Cheese can help neutralize acids and it’s a solid source of calcium, which supports strong teeth.

So yes, this is your official permission slip to enjoy a little extra today. 😉

A routine dental exam isn’t just “checking for cavities.” 👀🦷
We’re looking at gum health, old fillings, bite issues, and catching problems early before they turn into bigger (and pricier) fixes. 💡

If it’s been 6+ months, this is your sign. ✅
