Whether you need guidance on home care, a thorough cleaning, or treatment for early signs of gum disease, his team provides gentle, personalized care to keep your smile healthy and strong.
Why Oral Hygiene Matters
Oral hygiene goes beyond a clean smile—it supports your body’s overall wellness. Bacteria from untreated dental plaque can lead to gum disease and inflammation, which have been linked to systemic health conditions like heart disease and diabetes. Consistent oral care helps:
With professional cleanings and at-home care, you can prevent most major dental problems before they start.
Essential Daily Oral Care Habits
Dr. DiQuattro recommends simple, effective habits for maintaining oral health between visits:
Regular checkups and cleanings every six months allow your dentist to identify issues early and ensure your routine is working for you.
Professional Support for Better Oral Hygiene
Even with excellent at-home habits, professional cleanings are essential for removing hardened plaque (tartar) that brushing and flossing can’t eliminate. During your visit, Dr. DiQuattro’s team carefully cleans your teeth and checks for early signs of cavities, gum inflammation, or enamel wear.
If needed, additional treatments like fluoride applications or scaling and root planing can help restore gum health and prevent deeper issues.
