It is important to visit your dental Coorparoo on a regular basis to make sure that you have clean teeth and healthy gums and no underlying dental issues which may affect your oral health. It is recommended that you visit your dentist at least once every six months and more often if you are prone to dental issues. This is so that your dentist can examine your teeth and gums for any signs of decay or disease, advise how you can improve your dental health and treat any underlying issues which may be affecting the health or appearance of your mouth. Alongside a thorough examination of your dentition, it is also important to have regular appointments with your hygienist, as preventive dental treatment, removing bacteria, plaque and tartar from your mouth which may not be removed after brushing alone.

It can also develop below the gum line resulting in damage to the supporting structures of the teeth, causing gingivitis, periodontitis and eventually tooth loss.
