Dental Cleanings (Prophylaxis)

Dental cleanings, also known as prophylaxis, are a key component of preventative care. Regular cleanings help remove plaque and tartar buildup that can lead to cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues. During a cleaning, our hygienists will carefully clean your teeth, including areas that are difficult to reach with regular brushing and flossing. We’ll also polish your teeth to remove surface stains and leave your smile looking bright and fresh.

What to Expect During a Dental Cleaning
