Comprehensive dental cleaning for a healthy, radiant smile
Comprehensive dental cleanings are an integral part of preventative care, which is a core principle at Dental Crafted. Our experienced team understand that achieving and maintaining optimum oral health starts long before the first dental symptom arises. Our meticulous dental cleaning has become the mainstay for all of our patients.
What to expect during a professional dental cleaning?
1. Oral examination for a precise diagnosis
Before proceeding with a thorough dental clean, it is wise to conduct a comprehensive oral examination. This includes assessing your gums and teeth to detect any signs of inflammation, called gingivitis, or other oral issues. To ensure accuracy, photos and X-rays will be taken to provide a detailed analysis of your oral health. These records will help us monitor and compare your progress for years to come.
2. Scaling away stain, plaque, and tartar build-up
During a dental clean, you can expect an instrument called an ultrasonic scaler, to provide most of the heavy lifting. This instrument is paired with a warmed water stream, to effectively remove stain, plaque and persistent tartar (aka calculus). Of course, a comfortable experience has as much to do with our careful and calculated approach, as it does our modern and well maintained equipment. All dental hygiene is performed under magnification also, which ensures a meticulous result each and every time.
3. Polishing for a gleaming smile
To conclude a thorough dental clean, you can expect a dental polish with a, usually, fluoride impregnated paste. This last step not only ensures your teeth feel smooth and silky, but it also helps stimulate gum healing so that you are back to your best as soon as possible.
What are the benefits of professional dental cleaning?
- Thorough removal of plaque, tartar, and surface stains: Despite regular brushing and flossing, plaque, tartar, and surface stains can still accumulate on our teeth over time. A professional dental clean utilises advanced scaling and polishing tools, as well as skillful intent, to effectively remove these stubborn deposits. Removing surface stains during dental cleaning helps restore your smile’s natural brightness and aesthetic appeal.
- Prevention of gum disease: Gum disease, also known as periodontal disease, is a common oral health problem that can lead to gum inflammation, gum recession, bone loss, and even tooth loss if left untreated. In fact, it is considered the most prevalent cause of tooth loss in the world, with many systemic implications for your health also.. Regular dental cleanings help to reduce the incidence of gum disease and promote overall health.
- Early detection of dental issues: During a dental cleaning, your dentist or hygienist thoroughly examines your mouth for any signs of dental problems, such as cavities, gum disease, or oral cancer. Early detection allows for timely intervention and treatment, preventing the progression of these conditions and potentially saving your teeth and overall oral health.
- Fresh breath and improved aesthetics: Regular Dental cleanings remove the bacteria responsible for bad breath, so you can walk away with fresh breath and a clean, sparkling smile.
- Overall health benefits: Good oral health is linked to better overall health. Research has shown associations between oral health problems, such as gum disease, and systemic conditions like heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory infections. Regular dental cleanings contribute to your overall well-being and reduce the risk of potential health complications.
