Professional dental cleaning involves the removal of plaque, tartar, and stains from teeth using specialized instruments. The procedure includes scaling to remove hardened deposits, polishing to smooth tooth surfaces, and fluoride application for cavity protection. Most patients need cleanings every six months for optimal oral health. Many practices also offer air polishing, which uses a fine jet of powder and water to lift stains from coffee, tea and smoking that a standard polish can leave behind.
How it works: Oral examination and health assessment. Plaque and tartar removal (scaling). Tooth polishing with specialized paste. Flossing between all teeth. Fluoride treatment application. Oral hygiene education and recommendations.
Standard cleanings are suitable for most patients, but enhanced options exist for specific needs. Deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) is necessary for patients with gum disease. Air polishing removes stubborn stains more effectively. Some practices offer ultrasonic scaling for more comfortable plaque removal. Regular home care remains essential between visits.
