Oral hygiene
Why Dental Cleanings Matter
Even with excellent oral hygiene at home, some areas of your mouth can be hard to reach. Over time, plaque can harden into tartar, a substance that can only be removed by a dental professional. Without regular cleanings, this buildup may lead to:
Tooth decay (cavities)
Gingivitis and periodontitis (gum disease)
Persistent bad breath
Tooth discoloration

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I get a dental cleaning?
Most patients benefit from a professional dental cleaning every six months. If you have gum disease or a history of plaque buildup, your dentist may recommend more frequent visits.
Are dental cleanings painful?
Dental cleanings are typically comfortable and gentle. If you have sensitive teeth or gums, let our team know and we will adjust the cleaning to keep you comfortable.
How long does a dental cleaning appointment take?
A standard dental cleaning usually takes about 45 to 60 minutes, depending on your oral health and the amount of buildup present.
Do dental cleanings help with bad breath?
Yes. Professional cleanings remove plaque and bacteria that can cause persistent bad breath, helping your mouth feel fresher and healthier.
Can dental cleanings remove stains?
Cleanings remove many surface stains caused by coffee, tea, wine, and smoking. For deeper discoloration, we may recommend professional teeth whitening.
Is a dental cleaning safe if I have gum disease?
