Dental Cleanings

A dental cleaning is a professional cleaning you receive from your dental hygienist and is usually completed in less than 30 minutes. Cleanings should be performed every six months to prevent excessive plaque buildup. Plaque left untreated can lead to unhealthy gums and tooth decay. A routine dental cleaning should include scaling, root planing and polishing. Scaling and root planing is the process of removing plaque and tartar from all tooth surfaces with a variety of methods, depending on the amount of plaque and tartar. Polishing completes the cleaning, making the surface of the teeth smooth and minimizing future plaque build-up.

"I just recently started going to Dedicated Dental. Everyone that works there is so incredibly nice and the wait is never that long to be able to get in. I had to have an old filling drilled out and replaced along with another cavity. All my life of having cavities filled, etc.. It was the best experience I’ve ever had. My bite was right on from the get-go and I’ve never had a problem with it since. Thanks for being awesome!"
