What Are Dental Cleanings?
Even if you have a perfect oral hygiene routine at home, you may still benefit from scheduling a dental cleaning at Benjamin Lievense, DDS PLLC twice or more a year. Using advanced equipment like ultrasonic scalers, a professional cleaning removes built-up plaque and tartar, then polishes the enamel for a healthier, brighter smile. During your cleaning, you can ask for tips on ways to better clean your teeth at home and discover any areas that need special attention. A professional dental cleaning will allow us to look for any areas of concern in the mouth that may require treatment. A professional dental cleaning is essential in maintaining your oral health so make an appointment for yourself and your family at our Saginaw, MI practice.
What Should I Expect During A Dental Cleaning?
Your cleaning will start by removing the plaque and tartar buildup from your enamel, which is difficult to treat on your own with just daily brushing and flossing. Advanced equipment is used to carefully scale buildup without affecting the enamel. First, a device with ultrasonic technology breaks up bigger areas of plaque and tartar with a lubricating mist and high-speed vibrations. Next, a fine handheld instrument, like a scaler or curette, will be used to remove smaller pieces. Every tooth will be treated individually to remove all the tartar and plaque. Once the teeth have been cleaned, the enamel will be carefully polished to remove stains and strengthen the teeth. If requested or needed, a fluoride treatment can be performed following the cleaning.
What Are the Benefits of Dental Cleanings?
Saginaw, MI patients who get routine dental cleanings can expect to enjoy several advantages after their appointment, including:
- Prevention of conditions, like dental cavities or other concerns, before they worsen
- Lessening of plaque and debris accumulation
- Chance to select fluoride treatment to fortify and safeguard dental wellness
- Enhancement of overall tooth health and appearance
