Professional Teeth Cleaning & Dental Cleaning by Brampton Dentist
Keeping our oral hygiene healthy is one step to keeping our body healthy overall. Similar to keeping our organs healthy, healthy teeth are important for balanced digestive function. When we chew our foods, our teeth allow us to break food down which allows our bodies to take in the nutrients. Our teeth also allows us to speak clearly and pronounce words correctly.
What occurs during a dental cleaning?
A patient is recommended to include regular teeth cleaning and checkup appointments every six months or as recommended by your Brampton dental office.
Dental cleaning with our hygienist in Brampton involves the following:
- Any relevant medical information that could affect the patient’s oral health is reviewed, including medications, pregnancy, diabetes, or heart problems.
- Our dental office will take digital X-rays of your mouth and examine for hidden cavities, loose or broken fillings and other problems that require attention.
- If you mention any problems with chewing, biting, or grinding your teeth at night, our dental office in Brampton will provide options to treat your problems. These options may include mouthguards, braces and TMJ treatment.
- Our expert hygienist in Brampton may use numbing gels on your gums to make the cleaning experience comfortable.
- Your dental hygienist will clean the surface of each tooth’s. Plaque and tartar can build up and even with regular brushing and flossing, they my persist and not be completely removed unless treated by our dental clinic.
- Using a painless piezo scaler, we can safely remove plaque and tartar. This tool is great for cleaning areas between your teeth that are hard to reach with normal brushing.
- After that, your teeth will be polished to help remove surface stains.
- Finally, our Brampton dentist will do a detailed check of your teeth.
Professional teeth cleaning and dental cleaning treatment help patients receive a bright confident smile. Foods and drinks that we consume can actually cause our teeth to stain and discolour over time. Coffee, tea, wine and tobacco and main culprits. Our dental hygienist team can effectively remove these stains and polish your teeth during a professional teeth cleaning session in our office resulting in a beautiful bright smile which you can be proud of.
