What Are Dental Cleanings?

Even with daily brushing and flossing, some buildup can’t be removed at home. Regular cleanings are essential for maintaining a healthy smile and preventing serious dental problems down the road.
  • Removes Plaque & Tartar – Eliminates hardened deposits that cause cavities and gum inflammation.

  • Polishes Teeth – Smooths tooth surfaces and removes surface stains for a cleaner look.

  • Freshens Breath – Gets rid of odor-causing bacteria and debris.

Teeth cleanings do more than brighten your smile—they support your overall health too.

Why Regular Dental Cleanings Are So Important

Skipping professional cleanings can lead to problems like decay, gingivitis, or bad breath. Staying on schedule helps you stay ahead of small issues before they turn into major ones.
  • Prevents Tooth Decay – Cleanings help stop cavities before they start.

  • Protects Gums – Reduces inflammation and lowers your risk for gum disease.

  • Saves Time & Money – Preventive care is more affordable than restorative procedures.

  • Supports Whole-Body Health – Reduces the risk of oral bacteria impacting heart and systemic health.

Routine cleanings are one of the smartest, simplest things you can do for your smile.

Answers to Your Questions

Yes. Home care is essential, but professional cleanings remove tartar and reach areas that brushing alone can’t.

Most patients feel only mild pressure. If you’re sensitive, let us know—we’ll make adjustments to keep you comfortable.

That’s okay! We welcome you back without judgment and will gently help you restore your oral health.

Possibly, if it’s your first visit or we need to monitor areas beneath the gumline.

Most plans cover cleanings every 6 months. We’re happy to review your benefits and minimize out-of-pocket costs.
