At London Square Dental, we believe that prevention is the best medicine.

Our experienced hygienists and dentists use the latest technology to ensure thorough, comfortable care at every visit.

What Makes Dental Cleanings Essential for Oral Health?

Dental cleanings involve removing plaque, tartar, and stains from your teeth to promote optimal oral hygiene. These procedures help prevent serious dental issues and are an integral part of your overall health care routine. Regular cleanings complement your daily brushing and flossing efforts, giving you a deeper clean that's not achievable at home.

Comprehensive Dental Examinations

Your check-up begins with a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, tongue, and oral tissues. We use digital X-rays and intraoral cameras to detect issues that are invisible to the naked eye, including cavities between teeth, bone loss, and early signs of gum disease. We also perform an oral cancer screening at every visit.

How Dental Cleanings Keep Your Smile Radiant

Routine dental cleanings provide numerous benefits that go far beyond a sparkling smile:

  • Prevent Cavities and Gum Disease: Removing plaque and tartar reduces your risk of tooth decay and gum disease.
  • Brighter Smile: Polishing removes surface stains, leaving your teeth brighter and smoother.
  • Fresher Breath: Eliminates bacteria buildup that causes bad breath.
  • Improve Overall Health: Reduces oral bacteria that can contribute to systemic health issues like heart disease and diabetes.

Professional Teeth Cleaning

Even with excellent brushing and flossing habits, plaque and tartar can build up in hard-to-reach areas. Our dental hygienists use specialized instruments to gently remove these deposits from above and below the gum line. We then polish your teeth to remove surface stains and leave your smile feeling fresh and smooth.

Personalized Oral Health Plans

After your examination and cleaning, your dentist will discuss findings with you and create a personalized care plan. This may include recommendations for at-home care, dietary advice, fluoride treatments, or scheduling follow-up procedures. We take time to answer your questions and ensure you feel confident about your oral health.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I get a dental check-up and cleaning?+
For most patients, we recommend a dental check-up and professional cleaning every six months. This schedule allows us to catch potential problems early, remove built-up plaque and tartar, and keep your teeth and gums in optimal health. Some patients with specific conditions like gum disease may benefit from more frequent visits.
What happens during a dental check-up?+
During your check-up, your dentist will examine your teeth, gums, and oral tissues for signs of decay, gum disease, or other issues. We may take digital X-rays to detect problems below the gum line. Your hygienist will then perform a thorough cleaning to remove plaque and tartar, polish your teeth, and provide personalized oral hygiene advice.
Are dental cleanings painful?+
Most patients experience little to no discomfort during a professional cleaning. If you have sensitive teeth or gums, let your hygienist know and we can take extra steps to ensure your comfort, including using a gentle touch and numbing options if needed.
Can dental cleanings whiten my teeth?+
While cleanings remove surface stains, they are not a whitening treatment. For a brighter smile, ask us about our teeth whitening options.
