Think it is about time for your next dental cleaning? Getting your teeth cleaned on a regular basis is one of the more important things you need to do to support good overall tooth health.
A teeth cleaning is part of an annual dental check-up, which needs to be done at least once, if not twice, a year. Even if you feel that your teeth are clean, it really is necessary for a dental professional with Serena Medical Center to perform a thorough examination in order to be sure, as the beginning stages of gum disease are often hard to detect.
The cosmetic attractiveness of your teeth is maintained and improved by professional cleaning. With time, discoloration and stains may develop naturally.
The enamel may get discoloured if you smoke cigarettes or consume meals with dark hues, including as red wine, coffee, cola, or tea. Such foods’ colour pigments enter the enamel’s pores and cause yellow discolouration.

At Serena, your dentist or hygienist will cover your chest and clothes with a bib-like cloth. Then, they will begin to clean your smile by removing the plaque from your teeth with a small metal tool or with an ultrasonic vibration device. When the plaque is removed or loosened, you will rinse your mouth with cool, refreshing water. Second, your dentist or hygienist will polish your teeth with paste. This may leave a gritty feeling in your mouth, but it won’t last long after you rinse your mouth. Third, they will then floss your smile and clean between each tooth, freeing any food particles that are stuck. Fourth, they will conclude the cleaning with a fluoride treatment, which will come in the form of a foam, gel, or varnish. This treatment will nourish and strengthen your smile.
Teeth cleanings are not painful. They do, however, involve small tooth vibrations and small amounts of pressure. If these sensations make you feel uncomfortable, the dental team is more than happy to do whatever they can to help you feel more comfortable and safe. If it helps, you can establish a key word or signal that means “stop” before you begin your cleaning. That way, you will have the control and comfort you need in the dental chair.
