Dental Cleaning FAQs
1. Why is professional dental cleaning important?
Professional dental cleanings help remove plaque, tartar, and stains that regular brushing and flossing can’t eliminate. They also help prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath.
2. How often should I get a dental cleaning?
The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends getting a professional cleaning every six months. However, some patients with gum disease or other oral health issues may need more frequent cleanings.
3. Does dental cleaning hurt?
For most people, dental cleanings are painless. However, if you have sensitive teeth or gum inflammation, you may feel slight discomfort. Our dental team ensures a gentle and comfortable experience.
4. What happens during a dental cleaning?
A typical dental cleaning includes:
✔ Plaque and tartar removal using special tools
✔ Deep cleaning and polishing for a bright, smooth finish
✔ Fluoride treatment (if needed) to strengthen enamel
✔ Gum health check to detect signs of gum disease
5. Will my dental insurance cover cleanings?
Most dental insurance plans cover two cleanings per year as part of preventive care. Our team can help verify your coverage and benefits.
6. Can a dental cleaning whiten my teeth?
Dental cleanings remove surface stains, making your teeth look cleaner and brighter. However, for deeper stains, you may need professional teeth whitening.
7. What if I haven’t had a cleaning in a long time?
If it’s been a while since your last cleaning, don’t worry! Our team is here to help. You may need a deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) if there’s a buildup of plaque and tartar below the gumline.
8. What should I do after a dental cleaning?
After a cleaning, avoid eating or drinking staining foods and drinks (like coffee or wine) for a few hours. Continue brushing twice a day, flossing, and using mouthwash to maintain your oral health.
9. Can I get a cleaning if I have braces or dental implants?
Yes! Regular cleanings are even more important if you have braces or implants, as plaque can build up around brackets and restorations. Our team uses special tools to clean around them effectively.
10. How do I book a dental cleaning appointment?
Booking is easy! Call us, visit our website, or drop by any of our three convenient locations in Lakeshore, Etobicoke, or Erin Mills to schedule your cleaning.
