Why Is Teeth Cleaning Important?
Without regular professional teeth cleaning, plaque and tartar can accumulate, leading to:
- Discoloration of your teeth
- Gum disease such as gingivitis or periodontitis
- Bone loss
- Tooth decay or even tooth loss
Professional teeth cleaning not only keeps your smile bright but also plays a key role in preventing these serious dental issues.
What to Expect During Your Teeth Cleaning Appointment
Each teeth cleaning appointment includes:
Physical Exam
Your dental hygienist will begin by examining your mouth for any signs of gum disease, cavities, or other issues.
Plaque & Tartar Removal
Using a scaler, the hygienist will carefully remove plaque and tartar from your gumline and between your teeth. Plaque hardens into tartar, which can only be removed by a dental professional.
Deep Cleaning
For patients with more significant plaque buildup or gum disease, deep cleaning may be required. This process thoroughly cleans below the gum line to eliminate bacteria and allow gums to heal.
What Is Deep Cleaning?
Deep cleaning is an intensive procedure aimed at removing bacteria and tartar from the pockets of your gums. This treatment may be required if you have gum disease or extensive tartar build up. Regular brushing and flossing can help prevent plaque build up, but once tartar forms, only professional cleaning can remove it. Deep cleaning helps:
- Reduce the risk of gum disease
- Prevent tooth decay
- Promote gum healing by removing bacteria
How Many Visits Are Needed?
- Number of Visits: 1
- Completion Time: 30 – 60 minutes
- Recovery Period: 1-3 days
- Deep Cleaning: May require 2 visits, depending on the severity of tartar buildup and gum health.

Frequently Asked Question
How often should I get my teeth professionally cleaned?
We recommend scheduling a professional teeth cleaning every six months to maintain optimal oral health and prevent gum disease.
What’s the difference between regular cleaning and deep cleaning?
Regular cleaning focuses on surface cleaning of the teeth, while deep cleaning removes plaque and tartar from below the gumline and between the teeth to treat gum disease.
Will the teeth cleaning process hurt?
Most people experience little to no discomfort during routine cleaning. For deep cleaning, some patients may feel mild discomfort, but we can offer local anesthesia or sedation options to keep you comfortable.
How can I prevent tartar buildup between cleanings?
Maintaining good oral hygiene—brushing twice daily, flossing, and using mouthwash—can prevent tartar buildup. Regular check-ups with your dentist will also ensure any issues are caught early.
Teeth cleaning is recommended once or twice a year depending on your oral health and hygiene. Our professional hygienists do a very gentle and thorough cleaning which is totally pain free and does not cause any damage to the teeth.
