Professional teeth cleaning to maintain your oral health and keep your smile bright and healthy.
Professional dental cleaning, also called prophylaxis, is a preventive procedure performed by our dental hygienists to remove plaque, tartar (calculus), and stains from your teeth that regular brushing and flossing can't eliminate.
Regular cleanings are essential for maintaining good oral health, preventing cavities, gum disease, and other dental problems. We recommend professional cleanings every 6 months for optimal oral health.
Remove plaque buildup that produces acid and leads to tooth decay.
Stop gingivitis and periodontitis before they cause serious damage to your gums and bone.
Remove surface stains from coffee, tea, wine, and tobacco for a whiter smile.
Eliminate bacteria that cause bad breath and keep your mouth fresh.
Reduce risk of heart disease, stroke, and diabetes linked to gum disease.
Prevent costly dental procedures by catching problems early.
Our hygienist examines your entire mouth for signs of gingivitis, cavities, or other concerns.
We apply a special plaque-revealing agent (chewable tablet, liquid, or gel) that stains plaque buildup. After about 1 minute and a gentle rinse, areas with plaque become visible in different colors - light colors indicate recent plaque, while darker shades show older, more mature buildup. This helps identify areas needing better oral hygiene.
Using special instruments, we remove hardened tartar and plaque from around your gum line and between teeth.
Professional-grade toothpaste gently scrubs and polishes your teeth, removing surface stains.
Deep flossing between all teeth to remove any remaining plaque or toothpaste from earlier steps.
Rinse your mouth to remove any debris and leave your mouth feeling fresh and clean.
Optional fluoride treatment to protect teeth against cavities for several months.
