What Happens During A Teeth Cleaning?
A professional dental cleaning is much more than a polish. It’s a thorough and careful process that removes the plaque and tartar buildup that daily brushing and flossing can’t quite reach. During your visit, our friendly hygienists work with a gentle touch to clean each tooth, carefully monitor your gum health, and make sure everything looks—and feels—great.
what you can expect during your visit:
A gentle removal of plaque and tartar around the gumline and between teeth
A thorough flossing and polishing to smooth your enamel and remove stains
A full review of your oral health and tips for brushing and flossing at home
A personalized care plan if we notice areas that need extra attention
We explain every step and answer any questions you may have—because we believe patients should always feel informed and involved in their care.
Why Regular Cleanings Are So Important
It’s easy to think that cleanings are just for “clean” teeth, but they do so much more. Routine cleanings help prevent issues like gum disease, tooth decay, bad breath, and even tooth loss. Cleanings also give us a chance to catch small issues before they become big problems—saving you time, stress, and money in the long run.
benefits of regular cleanings:
Preventing gum disease and reducing inflammation
Protecting enamel by removing harmful plaque and tartar
Keeping breath fresh and teeth feeling smooth
Reducing your risk of cavities and tooth sensitivity
Monitoring changes in your oral health over time
Think of cleanings as a wellness checkup for your smile. They’re one of the simplest and most effective ways to keep your teeth and gums healthy for life.
