It is a fact that teeth cleanings are the most effective ways of ensuring that the dentist is able to prevent to the best of his ability decay in a patients mouth and monitor any pre-exisiting conditions in order to ensure that you are receiving optimal dental care. The American Dental Association has reccomended that visiting a dentist “regularly” for a cleaning every 6 months is best if we are to ensure optimal dental care. However for some people, the best frequency could be every 3 months if the dentist has to treat extensive periodontal disease. It is unfortunate but if are at higher risk for gum disease, you may need to visit a dentist more frequently.
During you cleaning and check Dr. Vaiman and Dr. Kessler will monitor you for decay and periodontal disease and give you advice on brushing and how to implement the proper routine dental care. At New York Family Dental Arts we strive to provide the highest standards in dental care. We cannot emphasize the importance of 6 monthly check-ups allowing us to guage the condition of your teeth, and gums and provide with an oral cancer screening.
On most occasions you visit the hygienist for your regular six monthly cleaning, it’s likely that this is the treatment you will receive. Patients with good dental health, who are not undergoing a treatment plan, will receive an overall check of the health and hygiene of the mouth every six months, and a thorough clean, especially in any hard to reach areas. Your hygienist will ensure the gum line is free of tartar, and polish teeth to shine, brighten, and lift away any staining or discoloration. The hygienist will pay particular attention to the stability of the teeth’s roots in the gum, and ensure there are no signs of gum disease, such as bleeding, or indication of other anomaly.

We are sensitive and understanding dental professionals who realize that not everybody is comfortable going to the dentist even if it is a regular cleaning. Are injections and fillings painless? If fillings are needed, our dentists will numb the area with a painless injection, then fill the cavity with a tooth-colored composite.
There is now no need for dark, silver fillings as we now use composite white fillings, also known as cosmetic fillings. These tooth-colored ceramic materials that we use are safe and extremely durable, and both Dr. Vaiman and Dr. Kessler able to custom color the filling or crown to match your natural teeth.
The traditional way to detect tooth decay was by touching the surface of the teeth with a metal probe. If the metal probe stuck, then there was a cavity. Using new laser technology, our dentists can detect early tooth decay without taking the chance of missing even the smallest cavities.
