How Dental Cleanings Protect Your Smile
Regular dental cleanings are essential for maintaining optimal oral health. Removing plaque, which harbors bacteria that can lead to cavities and gum disease, is key. We recommend scheduling professional cleanings twice a year to allow our hygienist to thoroughly remove plaque, tartar, and food particles from your teeth and gums.
At Luxe Smile Dental Studio, we use advanced dental X-rays to provide accurate diagnoses and comprehensive care. Our state-of-the-art imaging technology helps detect hidden dental issues early, ensuring effective treatments. We provide precise, safe, and efficient dental X-rays that help maintain your oral health and smile.
Routine dental cleanings provide these benefits:
Fresh and Clean Smile: Keeps your smile feeling and looking fresh.
Cavity Prevention: Helps prevent cavities and supports healthy gums.
Gum Health: Can reverse gingivitis and improve gum health.
Overall Well-being: Contributes to your overall health and well-being.
What to Expect During Your Teeth Cleaning
During a dental cleaning, your hygienist may use either hand instruments or an ultrasonic scaler. Hand instruments scrape off deposits from your teeth, while an ultrasonic scaler uses water and vibrations for cleaning. For optimal results, both methods may be used together.
A routine cleaning targets the surface areas around the neck of the teeth and the gumline, focusing on areas above and just below the gumline. The procedure is typically painless and straightforward. If you have sensitive teeth or other conditions that might cause discomfort, we can apply topical numbing gels or local anesthesia to make the experience more comfortable.
A Fresh, Clean, and Polished Smile
Once your teeth and gums are thoroughly cleaned, our Phoenix dentist will polish your teeth to remove any surface stains. You’ll leave with a bright, refreshed smile. Additionally, we’ll provide you with tips on effective brushing and flossing techniques, along with dietary advice to support excellent oral health.
