What Are the Benefits of Dental Cleaning?
Our Cedar Hill, TX patients who receive regular dental cleanings can expect to enjoy a number of benefits following their procedure, including:
- Prevention of disease that catches cavities or other issues before they progress
- Reduction of plaque and debris buildup
- Ability to elect for fluoride treatment to strengthen and protect teeth
- Improvement of overall tooth health and appearance
What Can I Expect During A Dental Cleaning?
Your dental cleaning will begin with your hygienist removing deposits of plaque and tartar, which can build up, even with daily brushing and flossing. The professional dental cleaning tools used at our office are able to eliminate buildup without damaging the teeth. First, an ultrasonic device addresses large chunks of plaque and tartar with a lubricating mist and high-speed vibrations. Next, handheld instruments, like a scaler or curette, will remove any remaining buildup. Every tooth will be treated individually to get all the tartar and plaque. After the teeth are cleaned, your enamel will be polished to remove stains and strengthen the teeth. If requested or needed, a fluoride treatment will be done after your cleaning.
If you are dealing with a condition, like periodontal disease, Dr. Brown may advise you to come in for professional cleanings and exams more frequently than twice a year.
Fresh Dentistry Reviews
Great customer service and they give a free tooth gem with every cleaning!
Today, Tawanda, the dental hygienist, performed an exceptional job during my periodontal (deep dental cleaning) cleaning. She was exceptionally professional and extremely thorough. She ensured that I was pain-free and exhibited an exceptional chairside manner. Furthermore, she imparted valuable knowledge regarding the utilization of active shield toothpaste and anti-cavity toothpaste to prevent gum disease, treat gum sensitivity, and prevent cavities subsequent to my periodontal cleansing. Tawanda is ourstandingš

Dental Cleaning FAQs
How should I prepare for my dental cleaning appointment?
Preparing for a dental cleaning is straightforward and involves a few simple steps to ensure the most effective visit:
- Continue your regular oral hygiene routine as normal
- Compile a list of any medications you are currently taking, as some may affect your dental health or the cleaning process
- If you have dental anxiety or specific concerns, inform the dental office beforehand so accommodations can be made to enhance your comfort during the appointment
Can dental cleanings whiten my teeth?
While the primary goal of a dental cleaning is to improve oral health by removing plaque and tartar, the polishing process during the cleaning can also remove some surface stains, leading to a brighter smile. However, it's important to note that dental cleanings are not a substitute for professional teeth whitening treatments.
What happens if plaque or tartar is not removed during a cleaning?
If plaque and tartar are not effectively removed during a dental cleaning, they can lead to a variety of dental health issues, including tooth decay, gum disease, and bad breath. Tartar, which is hardened plaque that cannot be removed by brushing alone, provides a rough surface that can harbor bacteria, leading to further oral health complications. Regular professional cleanings at Fresh Dentistry are essential to prevent these issues and to maintain overall oral health by thoroughly removing plaque and tartar buildup.
