Teeth Cleaning Cary NC

Regular dental check-ups and teeth cleanings are great for your teeth and gums, but did you know that they are also a vital component in your whole-body health and wellness? Some examples of the mouth-body connection include:

  • Gum disease: periodontal disease has been linked to various systemic health problems ranging from pre-term labor to heart attacks and strokes.
  • TMJ disorder: misalignment in your jaw, stress, and a variety of other underlying issues can lead to TMJ disorder, which can dramatically affect your quality of life with symptoms such as daily headaches, jaw pain, and the inability to chew properly.
  • Sleep disorders: in obstructive sleep apnea, the mouth’s soft tissues can collapse into the back of the throat when breathing, causing the brain and organs to become deprived of essential oxygen.

How does this all relate to seeing the dentist regularly? At Holistic Dental Centers, we do much more than just clean your teeth when you come in for your routine dental visits. In addition to using non-toxic materials while gently cleaning and polishing your teeth, we will use the most current tools and technologies to ensure that your teeth and gums contribute to your overall wellness rather than detracting from your health. That includes:

  • Talking with you about any concerning symptoms you may be having
  • Evaluating your bite and teeth to ensure that they are correctly aligned
  • Checking for signs of oral cancer
  • Providing you with educational information on how to take care of your smile at home
  • Using digital x-rays and 3D scanning technology when needed to diagnose and plan your treatment while exposing you to less radiation than traditional x-rays
  • Using biocompatible materials in every treatment we perform.
