Routine Teeth Cleanings for a Healthier Smile

Teeth cleanings play an essential role in maintaining a healthy smile by removing plaque and buildup that regular brushing and flossing can’t reach. During a professional teeth cleaning at Harris Family Dentistry, your hygienist carefully cleans and polishes your teeth to help prevent cavities, gum disease, and other oral health concerns. Routine cleanings not only protect your teeth and gums but also help keep your smile looking and feeling its best.

What to Expect During a Teeth Cleaning

An oral examination provides a thorough evaluation of your overall dental health, focusing on early detection and prevention. A professional teeth cleaning is designed to support long-term oral health by thoroughly removing plaque, tartar, and surface stains. Each visit focuses on prevention, comfort, and maintaining a clean, healthy smile between appointments.

  • Plaque & Tartar Removal
    Hardened plaque and tartar are carefully removed from the teeth and along the gumline to reduce the risk of cavities and gum disease.

  • Gum Health Evaluation
    The gums are checked for inflammation or early signs of periodontal disease to help catch issues before they progress.

  • Thorough Tooth Polishing
    Teeth are polished to remove surface stains and create a smooth finish that helps resist future plaque buildup.

  • Flossing & Final Rinse
    Flossing removes debris between teeth, followed by a rinse to leave your mouth feeling clean and refreshed.

  • Personalized Oral Care Guidance
    Helpful tips are provided to improve brushing, flossing, and at-home care based on your individual needs.
