Virgin Valley Dental in Mesquite, Nevada, prioritizes Preventative Dentistry to uphold optimal oral health for our patients. We emphasize the importance of proper brushing and flossing techniques to maintain a healthy mouth, encompassing both gums and teeth. Our team recommends brushing teeth at least twice daily for a minimum of two minutes, ensuring thorough removal of plaque and food particles from all tooth surfaces, including the tongue. Additionally, daily flossing, as endorsed by the American Dental Association, aids in plaque removal between teeth, mitigating the risk of tartar buildup, cavities, and gum disease. While flossing may initially feel unfamiliar, our practice encourages perseverance as it becomes an integral component of your dental routine, contributing to long-term oral wellness.
