Gum Health & Hygiene
Healthy gums are the foundation of strong teeth. At Aston Clinic, we offer professional deep cleaning treatments to remove bacteria and tartar, helping to prevent and treat gum disease.
Why Is Gum Health Important?
Gum disease is common and can lead to bleeding, bad breath, and even tooth loss. It occurs when plaque and tartar build up around the teeth and gums, causing inflammation and infection. If left untreated, gum disease can weaken the bone that supports your teeth, creating deep pockets that cannot be cleaned with regular brushing. Research has also linked gum disease to overall health issues, including heart disease, making proper gum care essential for your well-being.
How Can Dental Hygiene Help?
Regular professional cleanings by our dental hygienists remove plaque and tartar that brushing alone cannot. This reduces gum inflammation, prevents disease progression, and helps keep your teeth and gums healthy. Early detection and treatment of gum disease can prevent more serious dental issues, saving you time and money on future treatments.
