The Best Time for a Cleaning at Our Lake Mary Dental Office

If it’s been longer than six months since your last teeth cleaning then now is a good time to schedule one. Get your teeth clean and healthy ahead of the holiday frenzy! 

Your health and your smile are our top priorities. The longer you go in between cleanings the higher your chance of experiencing dental problems. Scheduling a cleaning every six months at our Lake Mary dental office is one of the best things you can do to maintain your dental health. 

Achieving and maintaining oral health starts with regular brushing and flossing at home. But, even the best dental hygiene regimen still can’t remove some plaque and tartar buildup. This is where regular cleanings come in. 

When plaque builds up around your gums it creates a conducive environment for bacterial growth. Bacteria and excessive plaque cause bad breath and can lead to gingivitis, which is a precursor to periodontitis or gum disease. 

Gingivitis is a degenerative disease that causes gum and tooth deterioration. Inflamed or bleeding gums are an early sign of gingivitis. If caught early, this can be easily treated by your hygienist or dentist. 

Untreated gingivitis leads to Periodontitis, which breaks down soft tissue and damages the bone that supports your teeth. Some early indicators of gum disease are bleeding gums and bad breath. Gum disease has also been linked to strokes, heart disease, and diabetes. 

If you require more extensive care we offer a wide range of restorative, cosmetic, and endodontic dental services. 

Even the cleanest teeth can lose their luster and become stained over time. Cosmetic dentistry can provide you with numerous benefits if you have discolored, damaged, or decayed teeth.

Teeth whitening is one of the easiest ways to brighten your smile! If you have noticed your teeth are starting to lose their sheen then teeth whitening might be the answer! Your teeth can be 4-8 shades whiter in just a few days with our tray whitening system! 

Dental implants are a fantastic restorative solution if you have experienced an accident or have lost a tooth due to decay. Modern dentistry has made these procedures easier and more effective than ever. A dental implant restores the function of your teeth, prevents bone loss, and gives you a full smile back.

We have state-of-the-art equipment and a comfortable environment at our Lake Mary dental office so we can provide you with high-quality dental care. We want the whole family to continue having healthy smiles.

My girlfriend told me to go to Dentist of Lake Mary. She’d had a great experience, and so did I. I wasn’t convinced when I first went, but the staff and services were great. The dentist didn’t do anything without telling me exactly what was going to happen. Each new step was explained in detail. I don’t like dental visits but this was definitely my best experience yet. I won’t go anywhere else.

A friend recommended Dentist of Lake Mary. That’s why I went. I wasn’t expecting anything different from any of the other dentists I have gone to. But was I pleasantly surprised. I’ve already had a really good experience during my first couple of my visits there. From the front desk to the doctors and staff, everyone is beyond friendly and patient. I’m sticking with Dentist of Lake Mary.

Every member of the staff at Dentist of Lake Mary was informative, friendly and helpful. Even though it was my first visit, the dentist went out of the way to make sure I knew what was going to happen and was there anything else the staff could do to make me more comfortable. The dentist explained every step in detail. Since I was having a root canal, I was very nervous, but everyone at Dentist of Lake Mary made sure I was OK. Just a great atmosphere and vibe in the office, and that’s a first for me at a dentist’s office.
