What Is Dental Cleaning?

Dental cleaning, also known as dental prophylaxis, is a professional oral hygiene procedure performed by our Vero Beach dentist. During this process, our experienced dental hygienists thoroughly cleans your teeth and gums, removing built-up plaque and tartar that cannot be removed by regular brushing and flossing alone.

Benefits of Dental Cleanings

  • Preventing Gum Disease: Regular cleanings can help prevent gingivitis and more advanced stages of gum disease.
  • Cavity Prevention: Cleaning removes plaque, which is a major contributor to tooth decay.
  • Fresh Breath: Removing bacteria and tartar helps combat bad breath.
  • Early Detection: Dental cleanings allow for the early detection of potential dental issues, such as cavities, oral cancer, or gum disease.
  • Brighter Smile: Polishing during the procedure can make your teeth appear brighter and cleaner.

Dental Cleanings Process

  • Assessment: Our Vero Beach dentist will assess your oral health, checking for any visible issues or concerns.
  • Plaque and Tartar Removal: Using specialized tools, a member of our team will carefully remove plaque and tartar from your teeth and along the gumline.
  • Cleaning and Polishing: After plaque and tartar removal, your teeth will be professionally cleaned and polished to remove surface stains.
  • Fluoride Treatment (optional): Our experienced dental team offers fluoride treatment to strengthen tooth enamel.
  • Final Inspection: Dr. Morgan will perform a final inspection to ensure your teeth and gums are healthy.
