Most people think of dental cleanings as just a way to keep their teeth looking bright, but routine dental cleanings are a cornerstone of overall health. At Stauffer Dental in San Tan Valley and Queen Creek, we focus on preventative care to help patients maintain healthy teeth, gums, and even a healthier body.
The Connection Between Dental Health and Overall Health
Your mouth is more than just a smile — it’s the gateway to your body. Poor oral hygiene can contribute to serious health issues, including:
- Heart disease
- Diabetes complications
- Respiratory infections
- Pregnancy complications
Regular dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing alone can’t reach, protecting not just your teeth but your whole body.
What Happens During a Dental Cleaning?
During a professional cleaning at Stauffer Dental, our team will:
- Examine your teeth and gums for signs of decay, gum disease, or other issues.
- Remove plaque and tartar buildup using specialized instruments.
- Polish your teeth to remove surface stains and leave your smile smooth.
- Provide personalized guidance on brushing, flossing, and oral hygiene habits.
Our goal is to make your cleaning comfortable, thorough, and even enjoyable — no stress, no pain, just a healthy, confident smile.
