A professional teeth cleaning can help maintain your beautiful smile and dramatically improve your oral health.
Although regular brushing and flossing at home helps to remove food particles and reduce the amount of bacteria in your mouth, there are some areas that are difficult to clean. Certain kinds of dirt like tartar (hardened plaque) can only be removed using professional tools in the dentist’s office.
If you’ve been avoiding professional teeth cleaning, don’t be intimidated. Take the first step to better oral hygiene and a better-looking smile by making an appointment today.
Benefits Of A Professional Teeth Cleaning
Without professional teeth cleaning, plaque and tartar can build up and cause your teeth to appear discolored. Missing regular teeth cleaning appointments can also result in gum disease and underlying bone deterioration, bad breath, tooth decay, and even tooth loss.
Dr. Dani recommends that you visit his office in Los Angeles for professional dental cleaning every six months to get rid of all plaque, tartar, and stains on your teeth and avoid these problems. As with all oral health, prevention is the best path.
Process Of Professional Teeth Cleaning
Teeth cleaning is usually combined with an oral checkup during routine dental visits that take between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the condition of your teeth. Here’s what to expect during your appointment:
- Examination
- Plaque and tartar removal
- Gritty toothpaste cleaning
- Expert flossing
- Rinsing
Depending on your case, Dr. Dani may perform fluoride treatment to strengthen tooth enamel and help deter cavities or deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) to remove tartar below the gum line and at the roots for patients with gum disease.
