When you come into our clinic for an appointment, our dental expert will first ask you about the concerns you have with your smile. If you are looking for a thorough dental cleaning procedure, our dental specialist will first carry out a physical exam of the mouth using a small mirror. This will help our dentist to get a better understanding of your oral health, and also to rule out any major dental problems.

When we don’t maintain good oral hygiene, our teeth are more susceptible to housing plaque and tartar. This bacteria-filled residue lingers in between your teeth and gums, which can eventually lead to gum disease and tooth decay. The next step of the cleaning process is to remove the plaque and tartar using a scaler. The dentist will use a scraping motion to thoroughly remove all the residue.
The best way to avoid excessive build-up of plaque and tartar is to brush and floss thoroughly at least twice a day.

The next step of the process is to get an expert toothpaste cleaning. A high-powered electric brush will be used to remove any leftover build-up of plaque and tartar. A grainy toothpaste will also be used in the process, which will help to scrub down the teeth. The process may be a little intimidating at first due to the grinding noise, but it does not cause discomfort. Toothpaste cleaning is best done by dental professionals, as they know the extent of cleaning that is needed for the individual.

Just like an expert toothpaste cleaning, our dentists will carry out an expert flossing session, which will help to improve the health of your gums. You will then rinse your mouth with a mouthwash that contains liquid fluoride.

Finally, our dentist will apply a fluoride gel or paste into a mouthpiece and place it over your teeth for about a minute. Fluoride varnish may be applied in order to enable you to drink and eat after the treatment. After this step, you will be ready to see your new, bright smile.
