TEETH CLEANINGS

A Clean Slate for Your Smile

Professional teeth cleanings go beyond what your toothbrush can achieve. They effectively remove plaque and tartar buildup, promoting healthier gums, fresher breath, and a brighter smile. Before the cleaning, the dentist will assess your gum health and check for signs of gum disease, like redness or bleeding. If pockets between your teeth and gums are deep, advanced cleaning methods may be recommended.

Why It’s Important/Benefits:

Prevent gum disease and cavities by removing plaque and tartar.
Improve the appearance of your teeth by eliminating surface stains.
Promote fresh breath by addressing bacteria buildup.
Strengthen enamel through optional fluoride treatments.

THE STEPS TO YOUR BEAUTIFUL SMILE

How We Diagnose and Plan Treatment:

1. Initial Assessment: The dentist or hygienist evaluates your oral health, looking for signs of gum disease or plaque buildup.

2. Customized Cleaning Plan: Based on the evaluation, a cleaning strategy is tailored to your needs.

3. Scaling: Plaque and tartar are removed from the teeth and gumline using specialized instruments.

4. Polishing and Fluoride Application: Teeth are polished, and fluoride may be applied to protect against future decay.

What to Expect During Treatment:

The cleaning process starts with scaling to remove plaque and tartar from your teeth and along the gumline. This is followed by polishing, which smooths your teeth’s surface and helps prevent future plaque buildup. Finally, an optional fluoride treatment may be applied to strengthen your enamel and protect against decay.

What to Expect After Treatment (Recovery/ Potential Risks or Symptoms):

You may notice your teeth feel smoother and cleaner immediately after cleaning. Some people experience mild sensitivity for a day or two, but this quickly resolves. Cleanings are a safe and effective way to maintain oral health with no significant risks.
