What are Dental Cleanings?
Dental Cleanings Q & A
Your dental expert at Smile Design Manhattan determines how often you should come to the office for dental cleanings. The frequency of your cleanings may depend on your oral health and medical history. In general, you should visit the office for your dental cleanings every six months.
How Often Do I Need Dental Cleanings?
Dental cleanings at Smile Design Manhattan are gentle and comprehensive. Before your dental hygienist begins, your teeth and gums are examined for decay and disease.
Then, with a gentle hand, your hygienist removes the plaque and tartar from your teeth and under your gums using a special dental tool. Your teeth are then cleaned, polished, and flossed. Once your teeth have been thoroughly cleaned, fluoride is applied to strengthen your teeth and stop or prevent tooth decay.
If the dental hygienist finds anything of concern during your dental cleaning, it’s noted for your dentist, who will also make an evaluation.
Whether it’s your first time to the office, or it’s your annual visit, you can always expect:
An examination by the dentist
Digital X-rays
