Teeth Cleanings

Our teeth cleaning removes plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing at home can miss. Regular professional cleanings help prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath, keeping your smile fresh and healthy.

During your visit, a hygienist gently scales away buildup above and below the gumline. Next, your teeth are polished to remove surface stains and leave them smooth. We finish by flossing and checking for signs of decay or gum inflammation.

Most patients benefit from a visit every six months, though some may need to come in more often. Between appointments, brush twice a day, floss daily, and limit sugary snacks to protect your results.

What Are Teeth Cleanings?

Teeth Cleanings, or dental prophylaxis, are professional cleaning procedures designed to remove plaque, tartar, and stains from your teeth. This routine service is essential for preventing cavities, gum disease, and maintaining overall oral health.

Benefits of Teeth Cleaning

  • Preventive Care: Early detection and removal of dental plaque to prevent cavities.
  • Gum Disease Prevention: Regular cleanings help reduce the risk of gingivitis and periodontal disease.
  • Fresh Breath: Removal of bacteria and plaque contributes to long-lasting fresh breath.
  • Brighter Smile: Stains are polished away, revealing a brighter and more radiant smile.
