Teeth Cleaning (Prophylaxis)
Teeth Cleaning (Prophylaxis)
Teeth cleaning, also known as prophylaxis, is a routine dental procedure designed to maintain and improve oral health. At Caspian Dental & Orthodontics, our dentists provide comprehensive teeth cleaning services that go beyond your daily brushing and flossing. During a teeth cleaning appointment, our skilled dental hygienists will remove plaque, tartar, and stains from your teeth, particularly in areas that are hard to reach with a toothbrush. The procedure includes polishing the teeth and, in some cases, applying fluoride treatment to strengthen the enamel. You can expect a thorough and gentle cleaning experience in a comfortable environment.
Benefits of Teeth Cleaning (Prophylaxis)
- Regular teeth cleanings help prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath by removing harmful bacteria.
- They go beyond just giving you a brighter smile, contributing to overall oral health.
- Consistent cleanings allow for close monitoring of your oral health, catching potential problems early.
- By reducing the risk of severe dental issues, regular cleanings save you time and money on future treatments.
