What to Expect During a Professional Teeth Cleaning at West 17th Avenue Dental Care

Your visit for teeth cleaning is not just about making your smile sparkle – it’s a comprehensive process designed to safeguard your oral health. Here’s what you can look forward to during your appointment:

Initial Examination: Assessing Your Oral Health Needs

Before starting the cleaning, our skilled dental hygienist will thoroughly examine your teeth and gums. This includes checking for:

  • Plaque and tartar buildup
  • Early signs of cavities or decay
  • Gum inflammation or signs of gum disease (gingivitis)
  • Any visible abnormalities, such as lesions or other oral health concerns

This step ensures a customized approach tailored to your dental health needs.

Even with diligent brushing and flossing, plaque and tartar can build up in hard-to-reach areas. Using specialized tools, our hygienist will:

  • Gently scrape away tartar (hardened plaque) along the gumline and between your teeth
  • Target bacteria-laden areas that contribute to gum disease and cavities
  • Provide relief from sensitivity during cleaning, ensuring your comfort.

This step is vital for preventing gum disease and maintaining a healthy smile.

Once the plaque and tartar are removed, we’ll polish your teeth using a high-grade, slightly gritty toothpaste. This process:

  • Removes surface stains caused by food, drinks, and lifestyle habits
  • Smooths your enamel to make it harder for plaque to stick
  • Leaves your teeth feeling clean and fresh

You’ll walk out with teeth that feel as good as they look!

Even the most meticulous at-home flossing can miss hidden debris. Our hygienist will:

  • Carefully floss between every tooth, reaching deep into the gumline
  • Remove any particles that may contribute to bacteria buildup
  • Offer tips for improving your flossing technique at home for even better results

For patients seeking added defense against cavities, we recommend fluoride treatment. In just a few minutes, this process:

  • Reinforces enamel to resist decay
  • Provides a protective barrier that can last for several months
  • Helps remineralize weakened areas of your teeth

Fluoride treatment is especially beneficial for children, teens, and patients prone to cavities.

After your cleaning, our hygienist will share:

  • A detailed overview of your oral healt
  • Tips for improving your daily dental care routine
  • Recommendations for any follow-up treatments or preventive measures

You’ll leave not only with a brighter, cleaner smile but also the knowledge to maintain it until your next visit.

The Incredible Benefits of Regular Teeth Cleanings

Regular teeth cleanings do more than brighten your smile—they significantly improve your overall oral health:
