What is Teeth Cleaning and Polishing?

Teeth cleaning and polishing, also known as dental prophylaxis, is a preventive dental procedure performed by dental professionals. It involves the removal of plaque, tartar (calculus), and surface stains from the teeth to maintain optimal oral health and enhance the appearance of your smile. The process typically includes scaling, root planing, and polishing to achieve a clean and smooth tooth surface.

Why is Teeth Cleaning and Polishing Done?

Teeth cleaning and polishing are done for several reasons, including:

Plaque and Tartar Removal: Even with regular brushing and flossing, plaque can accumulate on the teeth, hardening into tartar over time. Tartar cannot be removed by regular brushing and requires professional cleaning to prevent gum disease, tooth decay, and other oral health problems.
Gum Disease Prevention: Plaque and tartar buildup can lead to gum inflammation, known as gingivitis, which, if left untreated, can progress to periodontal disease. Teeth cleaning helps remove these harmful substances and reduces the risk of gum disease.
Stain Removal: Teeth can become discolored and stained due to various factors such as tobacco use, consumption of certain foods and beverages, and poor oral hygiene. Teeth cleaning and polishing effectively remove surface stains, revealing a brighter and more attractive smile.

Advantages of Teeth Cleaning and Polishing

Prevents Dental Problems: Regular teeth cleaning and polishing help prevent common dental problems such as tooth decay, gum disease, and bad breath, promoting better oral health and overall well-being.
Enhances Smile Aesthetics: By removing surface stains and polishing the tooth surface, teeth cleaning can significantly improve the appearance of your smile, making it brighter and more appealing.
Early Detection of Dental Issues: During the cleaning process, the dental professional can identify early signs of dental problems such as cavities, gum disease, or oral abnormalities. This allows for prompt intervention and timely treatment.

Types of Teeth Cleaning

Regular Dental Cleaning: This is the standard cleaning procedure performed during routine dental check-ups. It involves the removal of plaque, tartar, and surface stains above the gumline.
Deep Cleaning (Scaling and Root Planing): Deep cleaning is typically recommended for individuals with moderate to severe gum disease. It involves the removal of plaque and tartar both above and below the gumline, along with the smoothing of the tooth roots to promote gum reattachment.
