The Teeth Cleaning Process

Initial Examination

Your visit begins with thoroughly evaluating your teeth and gums, conducting an oral cancer screening, and overall oral health. Our dentist carefully checks for signs of decay, gum inflammation, or other concerns that require attention while explaining our observations to keep you informed throughout the process.

Plaque, Tartar & calculus Removal

Using state-of-the-art ultrasonic tools and hand instruments, we gently remove accumulated tartar and calculus from both above and below the gum line. This specialized cleaning reaches areas that regular brushing cannot access, helping prevent gum disease and tooth decay.

Deep Cleaning When Required

If we detect signs of periodontal disease, we may recommend scaling and root planing (SRP) to address deeper pockets of bacteria and infection beneath the gums. This thorough process helps heal existing infections and prevents further progression of gum disease and the impact the disease has on your body.

Final Polish and Protection

We complete your cleaning with professional tooth polishing to remove surface stains and leave your teeth feeling smooth and clean. A fluoride treatment may be applied when appropriate to strengthen your enamel against future decay.

Benefits of Dental Cleanings

Prevention of Serious Dental Issues

Regular professional cleanings help prevent cavities, gum disease, and other complications that could require extensive treatment. Early intervention through routine cleanings saves both your teeth and your budget in the long run.

Early Detection of Problems

During your cleaning appointment, we can identify potential issues in their early stages when they're easier and less expensive to treat. This proactive approach helps maintain your oral health and prevents minor problems from becoming major concerns.

Fresh Breath and Brighter Smile

Professional cleanings remove bacteria that cause bad breath and surface stains that dull your smile. Enjoy increased confidence in both personal and professional settings with a clean, fresh-feeling mouth.

How often should I get my teeth professionally cleaned?

Most patients benefit from professional cleanings every six months. However, if you have periodontal disease or other risk factors, we may recommend more frequent visits to maintain your oral health.

Will my cleaning be uncomfortable?

We prioritize your comfort and use gentle techniques throughout the cleaning process. Most patients find our modern cleaning methods to be surprisingly comfortable and stress-free.

What's the difference between regular cleaning and deep cleaning (SRP)?

Regular cleanings focus on removing plaque and tartar above the gum line, while deep cleaning addresses problems and infection below the gums to treat periodontal disease. We'll recommend the most appropriate type of cleaning based on your specific oral health condition.
