At Rose Crest Dental in Chandler, Arizona, we believe that oral health is an essential part of your overall well-being. Dr. Matt Hunsaker, DMD, is committed to helping you maintain a healthy smile and a healthier body. Regular dental cleanings and preventative care are crucial steps in preventing tooth decay, gum disease, and other serious health conditions. With Dr. Hunsaker’s gentle, thorough approach, you can trust that your teeth—and your overall health—are in great hands.
Many people think of dental cleanings as just a way to keep their teeth looking bright and shiny, but regular cleanings and preventative care are much more important than just cosmetic. Poor oral health is linked to numerous systemic conditions, such as heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory issues. By maintaining a clean mouth, you’re not only protecting your teeth and gums but also investing in your overall health.
Regular dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup that can cause cavities and tooth decay. By visiting Dr. Hunsaker for preventative care, you reduce the risk of developing tooth issues that can lead to more costly and complex treatments down the road.
Gum disease is one of the most common oral health problems, often resulting from poor oral hygiene. Regular cleanings allow Dr. Hunsaker to identify early signs of gingivitis or periodontitis (advanced gum disease). Catching these issues early helps prevent tooth loss and other serious health problems associated with gum disease.
Oral health is linked to many other health conditions, including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and even dementia. Studies have shown that poor oral hygiene can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke, while treating gum disease can help improve blood sugar control in diabetes patients. By maintaining your dental health with routine cleanings and preventative care, you’re also caring for your body as a whole.
Regular cleanings help remove the bacteria that cause bad breath. Keeping your mouth free of plaque and tartar improves your overall oral hygiene, which leads to fresher breath and greater confidence.
Preventative care helps avoid costly treatments like fillings, root canals, and tooth extractions. Regular cleanings help detect potential issues early, saving you time and money in the long run.
At Rose Crest Dental, Dr. Hunsaker takes a holistic approach to dental care, understanding that oral health is a critical part of your overall health. He is deeply concerned about your well-being and will provide personalized care that focuses on prevention to keep you healthy for years to come.
Dr. Hunsaker’s thorough cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup from all surfaces of your teeth, even in places that are difficult to reach with regular brushing and flossing. By maintaining this level of cleanliness, your teeth and gums stay healthier, and you reduce your risk of disease.
Fluoride is a natural mineral that strengthens your enamel and helps protect your teeth from cavities. Dr. Hunsaker offers professional fluoride treatments to keep your teeth stronger and more resistant to decay.
Dental sealants are thin, protective coatings applied to the chewing surfaces of your back teeth. These sealants help prevent cavities from forming, especially in children or adults prone to tooth decay.
Dr. Hunsaker will take the time to educate you on the best oral hygiene practices to keep your teeth and gums healthy. Whether it’s demonstrating the proper brushing technique or recommending the right type of floss, his guidance ensures that your oral health routine is as effective as possible.
During your visit to Rose Crest Dental, Dr. Hunsaker will perform a comprehensive exam of your teeth and gums to check for signs of decay, gum disease, or other issues. This helps identify potential problems before they develop into more serious conditions.
Using specialized tools, Dr. Hunsaker will clean your teeth by removing plaque, tartar, and bacteria from the surfaces of your teeth and below the gumline. This deep cleaning helps prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath.
After removing plaque and tartar, Dr. Hunsaker will polish your teeth, leaving them smooth and shiny. This not only helps improve the appearance of your teeth but also makes it harder for plaque and bacteria to build up again.
To further protect your teeth, Dr. Hunsaker may apply a fluoride treatment. This helps strengthen your enamel and reduces the risk of cavities.
After your cleaning, Dr. Hunsaker will provide personalized tips and recommendations to help you maintain your oral health at home. This might include advice on brushing techniques, flossing, and lifestyle habits that support healthy teeth and gums.
