The Dental Cleaning Process

Typically, dental cleanings take about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the patient’s needs. Before cleaning the teeth, we sometimes take digital X-rays to check for any cavities, cracked teeth, or other dental disasters waiting to happen. Then, the fun part will start! Our hygienists will use special tools to scrape away any plaque buildup and tartar from your teeth. Then, they’ll polish your teeth with gritty toothpaste, leaving them squeaky clean. It’s a relatively quick and painless process that will leave you feeling fresh and clean again.

Dental Sealants, Fluoride Treatment, & Oral Cancer Screenings

Caring for your smile is essential. In addition to brushing, flossing, and professionally cleaning your teeth, anti-cavity treatments like fluoride and dental sealants can make a difference in preventing tooth decay. These treatments can enhance the overall strength and health of your teeth. Individuals can achieve optimal results by incorporating dental sealants and fluoride treatment into their dental care regimen.

While nobody wants to think about cancer, getting oral cancer screenings at routine dental cleanings is a smart move to catch any potential issues early on. It’s always better to be proactive regarding your health, so go ahead and schedule that oral cancer screening. Your smile (and your overall well-being) will thank you.

Caring for Your Smile Starts with a Dental Cleaning & Exam

Teeth play a significant role in determining overall well-being. From brightening your smile to preventing major health issues, investing in proper oral hygiene serves so many purposes. That said, a consistent dental hygiene routine can work wonders, and one of the best ways to ensure that your teeth are as clean as possible is to schedule a dental examination and cleaning appointment.  You’ll be surprised at how refreshed you feel afterward!
