What is a Professional Teeth Cleaning?

A professional teeth cleaning is exactly what it sounds like. Unlike a teeth cleaning or brushing you do at home, a professional teeth cleaning is a routine dental procedure (typically done twice a year) where your dentist removes plaque, tartar, and stains that brushing and flossing can’t get to. But beyond the cleaning, your dentist will also examine your mouth for any issues with your teeth and gums, scrape away any buildup, polish the teeth, and floss. They may also finish off the appointment with a fluoride treatment to help reduce the risk of cavities, gum disease, bad breath, and other dental and oral health concerns.

An oral cancer screening can also be part of your dental visit. Your dentist will feel for unusual lumps and bumps.

Who is a Candidate for Teeth Cleaning?

Almost everyone is a good candidate for teeth cleaning. If you have teeth, and especially if you haven’t had a cleaning in a while, you are likely a perfect candidate. Additionally, if you are looking for a professional cleaning of your teeth, beyond what you can do at home, your teeth will not be cleaner than after a dentist cleans them.

Professional Cleaning Benefits

Teeth cleaning in Castro Valley comes with a wide variety of benefits, and they cannot be overstated. Some of the benefits you can look forward to with a professional teeth cleaning include the following:

  • Prevents cavities: Having a regular cleaning (along with regular brushing and flossing) can help keep pesky cavities at bay. With less of a risk of cavities, you don’t have to come in for a filling or another procedure to address the decay.
  • Prevents gum disease: Good oral health is about more than just your teeth; it’s about your gums as well. A professional teeth cleaning will dislodge any bacteria and plaque from the gums as well. Your dentist will also be able to examine your gums during this appointment to ensure you are not at risk for gum disease.
  • Detects oral health concerns: During your dental cleaning, your dental professional will be able to look for any dental issues, including cavities, gingivitis, plaque, decay, and other issues, allowing you to get the treatment you need as soon as possible.
  • Quick treatment: A professional teeth cleaning is one of the quickest dental treatments. You should be in and out of the office within 45 minutes (if not sooner).
  • Only needed a few times a year: Regular teeth cleanings are usually recommended every six months, so you only need them twice a year.
