What is Teeth Cleaning?

Teeth cleaning is an important dental procedure that involves the removal of plaque and tartar from your teeth since plaque and tartar are breeding grounds for bacteria in your mouth. Throughout the teeth cleaning process, one of our licensed dental hygienists will remove any built-up of plaque and tartar from your teeth using special tools. They will also polish your teeth to give them a healthy shine and remove any surface stains.

Why Are Teeth Cleanings Important?

Professional teeth cleaning helps you maintain oral hygiene and prevent oral diseases. We recommend getting your teeth cleaned every six months to ensure that your teeth remain clean and free from diseases.

What Are The Benefits of Teeth Cleaning?

Teeth cleaning provides numerous benefits that go beyond just having clean and white teeth. Some of these benefits include:

  • Less Tartar and Plaque Buildup: Plaque and tartar buildup can lead to gum disease and tooth decay. Having your teeth cleaned regularly by a dentist helps to prevent such build-up, leading to healthy teeth and gums.
  • Fresher Breath: Bad breath is caused by bacteria in the mouth. Professional teeth cleaning helps to get rid of these bacteria, leading to fresher breath.
  • Reduced Risk of Gum Disease: Periodontitis, often referred to as gum disease, is a prevalent dental issue that results from inflammation and infection of the gum tissue. Regular teeth cleaning helps to prevent gum disease, ensuring your teeth remain healthy.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do professional dental cleanings protect my overall health?

Regular dental cleanings don’t just keep your smile bright; they also play a major role in supporting your overall well-being. Harmful bacteria in the mouth can travel through the bloodstream, contributing to inflammation and even increasing the risk of conditions like heart disease or diabetes. By keeping plaque and tartar under control, professional cleanings reduce bacterial load, keeping both your mouth and body healthier.

Can professional teeth cleanings help with bad breath?

Absolutely! Persistent bad breath, or halitosis, often stems from trapped food particles and bacteria that hide in hard to reach areas of the mouth. A professional cleaning removes these odor causing substances while polishing the enamel for a smoother surface that is harder for bacteria to cling to. Most patients notice that their breath feels fresher immediately after their visit.

What’s the difference between regular cleaning and periodontal scaling?

A regular dental cleaning focuses on the surfaces of the teeth and along the gumline, while periodontal scaling, also known as scaling and root planing, targets bacteria that have built up beneath the gums. Periodontal scaling is the standard of care for patients having signs of gum disease. During your visit, the team at Farhoumand Dentistry will evaluate your gum health and determine which type of cleaning best fits your needs.

Are professional cleanings safe for sensitive teeth?

Yes, they are. If you experience tooth sensitivity, let your hygienist know before the procedure begins. Modern tools, gentle techniques, and desensitizing products can make your cleaning comfortable and stress-free. Removing buildup along the gumline can also help reduce future sensitivity, since tartar and bacteria often worsen exposed root surfaces.

How should I prepare for my dental cleaning appointment?

There’s no special preparation required. Bring a list of any medications you are taking and mention changes in your oral health, such as bleeding gums or lingering tooth pain. This information helps your dentist and hygienist tailor your care and catch early signs of potential issues.

What happens if I skip professional cleanings for a year or more?

Delaying dental cleanings allows plaque to harden into tartar, which can only be removed by a dental professional. This buildup creates a perfect environment for bacteria to thrive, leading to gum inflammation, cavities, and eventually bone loss. Even if your teeth feel fine, skipping regular cleanings can cause hidden problems that become more difficult and expensive to treat later.

What can I do to maintain my results between cleanings?

To keep your teeth looking and feeling great after your cleaning, brush at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and floss once daily. Consider using an antibacterial mouthwash to further reduce bacteria and plaque buildup. A balanced diet, regular hydration, and limiting sugary snacks can also help prevent decay. And of course, don’t skip your next appointment; routine care is the key to lasting oral health.
