Dental Cleaning

Dental cleaning, also known as prophylaxis or teeth cleaning, is a routine preventive dental procedure aimed at removing plaque, tartar, and stains from the teeth and gums. During a dental cleaning appointment, a dental hygienist or dentist uses specialized instruments to meticulously clean the surfaces of the teeth, including those hard-to-reach areas that are often missed during regular brushing and flossing. This thorough cleaning helps prevent the buildup of plaque and tartar, which are major contributors to tooth decay, gum disease, and bad breath. Additionally, dental cleaning may involve polishing the teeth to remove surface stains and achieve a smoother, brighter smile. Regular dental cleanings are essential for maintaining optimal oral health and preventing dental problems in the future.
