Jaffe Dental Group

We recommend scheduling a professional teeth cleaning every six months to prevent oral health issues like cavities and gum disease. A regular cleaning removes plaque and tartar buildup that brushing and flossing alone can miss. However, some patients may require a cleaning every three months based on their individual oral health needs. Our general dentist will assess your oral health during your initial appointment to determine the best cleaning schedule for you.

Our general dentists provide several preventative services to help maintain good oral health and avoid future dental problems. These include: regular dental checkups and cleanings, dental sealants to protect molars and premolars, fluoride treatments to strengthen enamel and prevent cavities, and personalized oral hygiene education on brushing, flossing, and selecting the right oral care products.

In addition to brushing and flossing daily, maintaining a healthy diet low in sugar, staying hydrated, and using an antiseptic mouthwash can support good oral hygiene. Mouthwash should be used as a supplementary step, not a replacement for brushing and flossing.
