When was the last time you visited our office for an oral hygiene examination and cleaning? Now that spring has arrived, there is no better time to schedule your next appointment. You can consider it the “spring cleaning” of your mouth. Spring cleaning is a common term for the activity of organizing and deep cleaning during this season. When you visit our office for a hygiene examination and cleaning, we do a deep clean of the mouth, removing any lingering plaque and bacteria that have built up since your last visit. Failure to schedule routine appointments can lead to serious complications with your oral health. Read on to learn more.

What To Know About A Tooth Extraction

Emergency Dentistry, Integrity Dental, Patient Information

At Integrity Dental, we do everything we can to save your natural teeth. Unfortunately, that is not always possible, and there are times that we recommend an extraction to our patients. An extraction may be needed for a number of reasons such as severe decay, complications from gum disease, trauma to the mouth, or even to help prepare the mouth before orthodontic treatment. A tooth extraction is when the entire tooth structure, including the root, is fully removed.
