Teeth cleaning

Teeth cleaning is an outpatient non-surgical procedure that removes plaque, tartar, and other debris from the teeth to prevent tooth decay, gum disease, and other oral health problems. Before the procedure, a dentist will take the patient’s clinical history and physically examine the teeth and gums, and x-rays. Then, they use a numbing gel to minimize discomfort during the cleaning. The process involves specialized tools to remove plaque, tartar, and debris from the teeth and gums. The dentist may also use a polishing paste to remove surface stains and leave the teeth looking clean. After the cleaning, the dentist will provide post-procedure care instructions to the patient, including recommendations for at-home oral hygiene and any necessary follow-up appointments. The dentist may also prescribe medicines to manage discomfort after the procedure. Teeth cleaning improved oral health, fresher breath, and a brighter smile. It prevents tooth decay, gum disease, and other problems. Regular teeth cleaning helps detect and address potential issues before they worsen. Doctors provide recommendations for maintaining good oral health, such as eating a healthy diet, avoiding sugary foods and drinks, and using fluoride toothpaste. Patients can enjoy a healthy smile by following advice and scheduling regular dental check-ups and cleanings.
