Soon, you’ll be getting ready to celebrate the holiday of love with your sweetheart. But before your romantic evening out, visit Dr. Hsue at West Valley Dental to make sure your mouth is healthy and kissably fresh for your Valentine with one of these three dental treatments :

#1 – Dental Cleaning

It’s the perfect time for one of your two dental cleanings of the year. Not only does this give us a chance to remove plaque from your teeth, but we’ll also be able to look for any signs of tooth decay, cavities, and gum disease so we can take care of them right away before date night.

By the end of your visit, your teeth will be clean and polished for a healthy smile that’s shining for date night.

#2 – Dry Mouth Treatment

A dry, sticky mouth can dry out the romance on your special night. It can cause bad breath and dry, cracked lips, too. You may not be drinking enough water, or you may have an underlying problem with your oral health that’s slowing your saliva production. We’ll get to the bottom of your dry mouth and can also offer a prescription to help alleviate your symptoms.

#3 – Bad Breath Treatment

Persistent bad breath that isn’t helped with brushing, mouthwash, or mints may be a sign of gum disease, something Dr. Hsue and our team can help you get under control with our deep cleaning treatment. If gum disease isn’t the root cause, we will offer other possible reasons your breath is less than fresh and give you some oral care tips to help keep your breath minty fresh and have you ready to pucker up on Valentine’s Day!
