Our experienced team is committed to your comfort and care at every visit.

What Happens During a Dental Cleaning?

A professional cleaning goes beyond what regular brushing and flossing can achieve. Here’s what you can expect:

1. Comprehensive Examination

Before the cleaning, we examine your teeth and gums to check for signs of cavities, gum disease, or other oral health concerns.

2. Plaque and Tartar Removal

Using specialized tools, we remove plaque and hardened tartar (calculus) from your teeth, particularly in hard-to-reach areas.

3. Deep Cleaning and Polishing

Your teeth are polished to remove surface stains, leaving your smile bright and smooth.

4. Flossing and Fluoride Treatment (if recommended)

We floss to ensure no debris remains and may apply fluoride to strengthen your enamel and protect against decay.

Why Are Professional Cleanings Important?

Even with excellent oral hygiene, plaque and tartar can accumulate over time. Regular dental cleanings:

• Help prevent cavities and gum disease.
• Remove bacteria that can cause bad breath.
• Support your overall health by reducing the risk of systemic conditions linked to oral health, such as heart disease.
• Enhance your smile’s appearance by eliminating surface stains.

How Often Should You Get a Dental Cleaning?

For most patients, we recommend a professional cleaning every six months. However, individuals with gum disease or other oral health concerns may benefit from more frequent visits. Dr. Taylor Schaar will tailor a cleaning schedule to meet your needs.
