Cleanings & Exams

Dental Exams

In order to keep our patients as healthy as possible, we work with them to establish ongoing dental care and an understanding of how to practice good oral hygiene at home.

If you live in the Gurnee area, call (847) 336-3770 to schedule your exam and to learn how you can stay healthy year-round.

Dr. Arash Hosseini has years of experience working with patients of all ages and knows how to help children to feel comfortable while visiting the dentist. Families throughout Illinois bring their children to our office for dental cleanings, exams, and check-ups.

We recommend that teeth cleanings and exams start from a very young age, in order to instill good dental health habits as early as possible.

 

Why Are Regular Dental Cleanings and Exams Important?

Good oral health is important regardless of how old you are. As people age, their risk for an oral infection continues to increase.

The older teeth get, the more the protective enamel starts to wear away, and the easier it gets for cavities to develop. The best way to combat this is by brushing and flossing throughout the day in addition to visiting Dr. Hosseini on a regular basis.

Ariata Dental offers flexible appointment times so that you can schedule an appointment around your work or family schedule, so you don't have to cancel plans or take chunks of time out of your day to get your teeth cleaned.

Dr. Hosseini recommends that patients around Gurnee, IL should receive teeth cleanings at least twice a year with Ariata Dental.

 

Dental Health Education

During your routine teeth cleanings and examination, Dr. Hosseini will also discuss ways that you can keep your teeth and gums healthy at home.

At Ariata Dental, we believe that good oral hygiene at home is vitally important in conjunction with regular visits to our office.

Dr. Hosseini recommends that you use a soft toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste to brush your teeth twice a day. This is one of the best ways to clean harmful sugar and bacteria off of your teeth.

You will also benefit from flossing daily to get food particles and bacteria out of hard to reach places. Following up with an antibacterial mouthwash will help kill any remaining germs.
