The Role of Dental Cleanings in Preventing Gum Disease
Dental cleanings prevent gum disease. Perfected Smiles in Rochelle Park, NJ, explains how routine visits protect gums and teeth.


Why Gum Health Is Critical
Gum disease is one of the most common dental issues, but also one of the most preventable. Professional cleanings are the first line of defense.
At Perfected Smiles, Dr. Jason Schepis, DMD and Dr. Ryan Maher focus on prevention through regular cleanings.



How Cleanings Prevent Gum Disease
By removing plaque and tartar, cleanings stop bacteria from inflaming gums. Early treatment prevents gingivitis from progressing to periodontitis.
Regular visits save both teeth and gums.
