Teeth Cleaning

Brushing your teeth at home helps remove food debris and keeps your breath fresh. However, even with diligent home care, plaque still builds up in your teeth and poses risks to your dental health.

At Peerzada Smiles, we understand how important a healthy smile is for your well-being. That's why we provide expert teeth cleaning services that go beyond your regular dental care.

What is a Teeth Cleaning?

Teeth cleaning, also known as a prophylaxis, is a professional dental procedure performed by one of our hygienists. The process involves the removal of plaque, tartar, and surface stains from your teeth.

Our dental professional will start by examining your teeth and gums to identify any potential issues or areas of concern. Using specialized tools, they will remove the plaque and tartar from the tooth surfaces and along the gumline.

After scaling, they polish your teeth to remove surface stains, leaving your smile looking brighter and cleaner. Finally, depending on your dental needs, our team may apply a fluoride treatment to strengthen your teeth and prevent cavities.

Why is Teeth Cleaning Important?

• By removing plaque and tartar buildup, teeth cleaning helps prevent the formation of cavities.
• Teeth cleanings reduce the risk of gum disease, which can lead to more severe oral health issues if left untreated.
• Teeth cleaning eliminates bacteria and plaque responsible for bad breath, leaving your mouth feeling fresher.
• Good oral hygiene contributes to better overall health, as it may reduce the risk of systemic diseases associated with poor oral health.

How Often Should I Get My Teeth Cleaned?

For most people, we recommend getting a teeth cleaning every six months. However, your dentist may suggest more frequent cleanings if you have specific dental issues or a history of gum disease.

How Can I Maintain the Results of Teeth Cleaning at Home?

To keep your smile in tip-top shape between dental visits, follow these home care tips:

• Brush your teeth at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste.
• Floss daily to remove food particles and plaque from between your teeth.
• Use mouthwash to kill bacteria and freshen your breath.
• Limit consumption of colored or acidic foods and drinks that can stain your teeth.
