Teeth Cleaning

At Mission Dental, we emphasize the importance of professional teeth cleaning as part of your routine oral care. Even with regular brushing and flossing, plaque and tartar can build up over time, leading to cavities and gum disease. Our gentle yet thorough cleanings help keep your smile healthy, fresh, and bright.

What Is Professional Teeth Cleaning?

Professional teeth cleaning is a preventive dental procedure that removes plaque, tartar, and surface stains from your teeth. It helps prevent tooth decay, gum disease, and bad breath, ensuring long-term oral health.

Benefits of Teeth Cleaning

  • Prevents cavities and gum disease by removing plaque buildup.

  • Eliminates tartar that cannot be removed with regular brushing.

  • Reduces stains, giving your teeth a cleaner, brighter appearance.

  • Freshens breath by eliminating bacteria and buildup.

  • Supports overall health, as gum disease is linked to conditions like heart disease and diabetes.

How Does the Process Work?

  1. Comprehensive Oral Examination – We assess your oral health and check for any concerns.

  2. Plaque & Tartar Removal – Specialized tools gently remove buildup from your teeth and gum line.

  3. Deep Cleaning & Polishing – Your teeth are polished to remove surface stains and smooth enamel.

  4. Fluoride Treatment (Optional) – Strengthens teeth for extra protection against cavities.

  5. Personalized Oral Care Guidance – Our team provides expert advice on maintaining a healthy smile at home.

How Often Should You Get a Professional Cleaning?

We recommend scheduling a teeth cleaning every six months to maintain optimal oral health. However, patients with gum disease or other concerns may require more frequent visits.
