What is a dental cleaning?
A dental cleaning is a routine procedure that removes plaque and tartar from your teeth. Plaque is a sticky film of bacteria that forms on your teeth throughout the day. Tartar is hardened plaque that can build up below the gum line. Both plaque and tartar can cause cavities, gum disease, and other dental problems.
How often should I get a dental cleaning?
The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends that adults get a dental cleaning every six months. However, if you have a history of gum disease or other dental problems, your dentist may recommend that you get your teeth cleaned more often.
What happens during a dental cleaning?
During a dental cleaning, your hygienist will first remove plaque and tartar from your teeth using a scaling instrument and ultrasonic cleaner. They will then polish your teeth using a polishing paste and rotating rubber cup. The polishing process helps to remove surface stains and smooth the surface of your teeth.
Is dental cleaning painful?
Dental cleanings are typically not painful. However, some people may experience mild discomfort during the scaling process. If you have any concerns about pain, be sure to talk to your dentist or hygienist.
What should I expect after a dental cleaning?
Your teeth may feel a little sensitive for a day or two after a dental cleaning. This is normal and should go away on its own. You should also avoid eating or drinking anything hot or acidic for a few hours after your cleaning.
What are the benefits of regular dental cleanings?
Regular dental cleanings help to prevent cavities, gum disease, and other dental problems. They can also help to improve your oral health and overall health.
