What Is Teeth Cleaning?
Teeth Cleaning, or professional prophylaxis, is a preventive dental procedure typically performed during routine dental visits to maintain oral health. While daily brushing and flossing remove surface plaque, professional cleaning is essential for eliminating hardened tartar (calculus) and deep stains that cannot be removed through home care. This process helps preserve a clean and polished appearance while also reducing the risk of gum disease, tooth decay, and other dental complications.
At our affiliated clinic, Teeth Cleaning can be carried out using advanced Airflow technology, which applies a controlled jet of air, water, and fine powder to gently remove plaque and deposits from hard-to-reach areas. Regular cleanings assist in the early detection of dental issues such as damaged fillings, gum disease, or oral lesions. In addition, they contribute to fresher breath and can help minimize long-term dental expenses by addressing problems in their early stages.
How It Works
Teeth Cleaning involves the removal of plaque, tartar, and stains using an advanced technique known as Airflow. Traditional cleaning uses ultrasonic scalers and polishing cups to clean tooth surfaces. Airflow cleaning, on the other hand, uses a jet of air, water, and fine powder to gently remove deposits – even from hard-to-reach areas. This method is faster, more comfortable, and non-abrasive, making it ideal for general cleaning, implant care, and pre-treatment preparation.

2. A mixture of air, water, and fine powder will be sprayed.

FAQ
Q1: What are the causes of bad breath?
A1: Bad breath can be caused by poor oral hygiene, plaque buildup, gum disease, tooth decay, dry mouth, certain foods, smoking, or underlying medical conditions. Bacteria accumulating on the teeth, tongue, and gums are a common source of persistent bad breath.
Q2: Can Teeth Cleaning help with bad breath?
A2: Yes, professional teeth cleaning helps remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria that contribute to bad breath. By cleaning areas that are difficult to reach with regular brushing and flossing, it effectively helps prevent and resolve persistent bad breath.
Q3: What is the difference between Teeth Cleaning and Teeth Scaling?
A3: Teeth Cleaning refers to routine prophylaxis that removes surface plaque and tartar to maintain oral health. Teeth Scaling is a deeper cleaning procedure, often part of periodontal treatment, used to remove hardened deposits below the gum line in cases of gum disease.
Q4: Can I eat normally after Teeth Cleaning?
A4: Eating can resume shortly after Teeth Cleaning. However, it is recommended to wait at least 30 minutes if a fluoride treatment was applied.
Q5: Is once a year Teeth Cleaning enough?
A5: For most individuals, Teeth Cleaning is recommended twice a year. However, those with gum disease, heavy tartar buildup, or other oral health concerns may need more frequent cleanings.
