Your teeth are certainly the stars of your oral health show, but they can’t do it alone. You depend on the health of your entire mouth to keep you safe, and part of that is keeping an eye on your gumline. When plaque and tartar start to form on the surface of your teeth, it can irritate and even infect your gum tissue, leaving you at real risk of periodontal disease. This condition is the leading cause of adult tooth loss in this country, so it’s important to pay attention.
With our team at Cedar Dental in Cedar Rapids, IA, you’ve got someone looking out for your smile. We understand that time can slip away from any of us, but if you have been longer than six months since your last checkup, you might be able to tell. Plaque and tartar buildup can leave you with rough teeth, an acidic taste, and cause lasting harm to the structures of your smile, including periodontal disease. So, take your timeline seriously.
