A bright, clean smile can boost your confidence and make you feel comfortable. Brushing and flossing regularly are essential steps for maintaining your dental hygiene.

However, it is challenging to get free of plaque and tartar from each nook and cranny of your teeth. As there is a connection between your dental and overall health, taking care of your teeth and gums is necessary.

Therefore, our dentists recommend professional teeth cleaning to ensure that your teeth and gums stay healthy, giving you a fresh and radiant smile.

• Your dentist will use specific tools to eliminate plaque and tartar from your teeth and gums thoroughly.
• The cleaning tools have vibrating points with water jets. The jetting water helps in the elimination of the debris.
• Next, the teeth are polished using another set of equipment and a polishing mixture to make them smoother and stainless.
• If gum disease is severe, it may need deep cleaning. The dentist can strike deeper spaces below the gum line, gum pockets, and throughout the tooth root with special tools.

• Removes Plaque :

Plaque is a whitish and sticky film that continuously builds on your tongue, teeth, gums, crowns, dentures, or dental fillings. The bacteria in plaque produce toxic acids from sugars present in food. It damages the tooth enamel causing dental decay.

The gum line’s plaque produces toxins that continuously infect the gums leading to gum inflammation called gingivitis. If gingivitis persists, it can cause gum disease called periodontitis.

Even with regular brushing and flossing, some plaque and bacteria can settle. A dental cleaning can only eliminate it.

• Removes Tartar :

If plaque settles on the teeth for longer, it combines with saliva minerals forming a solid material, the tartar or calculus. The tartar is irregular in texture and attracts more bacteria. Unlike plaque, we cannot remove calculus by simple brushing and flossing. We need specialized dental cleaning tools to get rid of it.

• Brighter smile :

Stains and spots on your teeth can make you feel shy while smiling. The polishing step in teeth cleaning can remove stains efficiently, giving a radiant smile.

• Fresh breath :

The oral bacteria produce compounds that generate bad breath. It can impact your lifestyle. Teeth cleaning is best for getting rid of bad breath.

• Early identification of dental problems :

During teeth cleaning, the dentist will thoroughly check your teeth and gums. It can help identify early signs of gum disease and cavities hidden beneath plaque and tartar.
