What is Teeth Cleaning?

Teeth cleaning is the process of removing bacterial plaque or tartar (hardened plaque deposits). This procedure includes multiple treatments with the aid of various tools and instruments.

As a critical preventative measure, this treatment will help eliminate future oral health issues like cavities, tooth decay, or gum disease. 

Teeth Cleaning Procedure

Dental cleaning needs multiple sittings. The following are the various treatments in the teeth cleaning procedure offered at 5th Ave Smile.

Visual Examination

The visual exam by the doctor includes digital X-rays and similar diagnostic procedures. This is done to assess the risks of developing other oral problems.

Hardened Plaque or Tartar Removal

The plaque or tartar removal process includes tooth scaling and polishing, and debridement, as per your unique requirements.

High-powered Brushing

In this procedure, the hygienist makes use of a specially designed high-powered brush. This deep brushing will give a polishing effect on your teeth by removing surface stains.

Picasso Laser

Picasso laser treatment can help shape gums, remove soft tissue lesions, expose unerupted teeth, or provide relief from canker sores or mouth ulcers.

Flossing

At the end of the treatment procedure, the hygienist will floss your teeth to remove plaque and other hardened materials accumulated below the gum line and between teeth.

Teeth Cleaning After Care

After teeth cleaning, you should take extra care of your oral hygiene. The following instructions can help you with it.
