What is professional teeth cleaning?

Professional teeth cleaning also called deep teeth cleaning or prophylaxis is performed to remove plaque and tartar from teeth. It can be performed by a dentist, but often by a certified dental hygienist.  It is also done to remove staining from teeth. It is recommended that patients get professional dental cleaning done twice a year for their long term dental and oral health. Professional dental cleaning takes from 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the amount of work that needs to be done.

Is professional teeth cleaning painful?

Patients may experience pain and sensitivity during the teeth cleaning procedure. Hygienists may numb the gums of the patient before cleaning to make the procedure pain free.  

What is the recovery time after having teeth professionally cleaned?

Patients who experience pain, sensitivity or bleeding after professional teeth cleaning usually recover within a few days.

What are the types of professional teeth cleaning procedures?

The types of professional dental cleaning include general dental cleaning, scaling and polishing, air abrasion, cleaning using ultrasonic scalers and laser assisted dental cleaning.

What care is required after professional teeth cleaning?

Patients should take any medications prescribed by the dentist correctly. They should rinse their mouths with warm salt water after every meal for at least two weeks. They should be wary of hard food or food that may stick between teeth. If they experience sensitivity, they should not eat or drink very hot or very cold food till the sensitivity abates.

Teeth Cleaning from £117
Teeth cleaning—usually performed by a dental hygienist– is a very effective procedure for removing tartar (mineralized plaque) that may develop even with careful brushing and flossing, especially in areas that are difficult to reach in routine brushing. Because it is essential to remove the tartar below the gum line and above it, getting your teeth professionally cleaned by a dental hygienist at least twice a year is a must. Teeth cleaning with special dental tools removes harmful plaque, calculus (hardened plaque), and bacteria that can’t be removed at home by simply brushing or flossing– regardless of how vigorously you brush or floss. Professional teeth cleaning will include tooth scaling and root planning and tooth polishing and debridement if too much tartar has accumulated and can prevent cavities, gingivitis, and periodontal disease. The shortest hygiene session is around 20 minutes, while the longest lasts about one hour but is reserved for only the most extreme cases, and these sessions can last shorter the more frequently you get them. As a true time saver, we recommend getting the treatment every half-year check-up, which is a necessary part of your oral health and is highly recommended. The best you can do is to see a dental hygienist near you to get proper advice on maintaining good oral health!
Scaling and Root Planing  
Healthy teeth are essential for any smile makeover. That’s why it is a good idea to ensure your teeth and gums are in top condition before considering any cosmetic treatment. Regular check-ups with your dentist and hygienist are highly recommended to keep your smile sparkling. The results of a professional scale and polish can be pleasantly surprising. Every half a year, a dental cleaning session removes stains and tartar that have built upon the surface of your teeth and will improve the appearance of your smile, leaving your teeth looking much whiter and brighter. You can maintain these results with a first-class brushing and flossing routine at home.
Ultrasonic Scaling  
Ultrasonic scaling is a standard procedure performed during a hygiene consultation to remove plaque and tartar buildup from the teeth and gums. A dental hygienist performs the procedure. Before starting, a thorough examination of the teeth and gums may precede it.It is a kind of cleaning that uses a unique instrument called an ultrasonic scaler uses high-frequency vibrations and a fine stream of water to break up and remove the buildup of plaque and tartar from the teeth. The scaler is designed to be gentle on the teeth and gums while effectively removing stubborn deposits that cannot be removed by brushing and flossing alone. Your teeth will be polished to remove any remaining stains and to give them a smooth, shiny surface. Ultrasonic scaling is an important part of preventive dental care because it prevents gum disease, tooth decay, and other dental problems. The procedure is pain-free and does not require any anesthesia. However, patients with sensitive teeth or gums may experience some discomfort.

I am now very proud of my smileKelly, UK, 13 06 24

As a very nervous patient and putting off going to the dentist for almost 10 years, I can not recommend Cherwell Heights Dental Care enough. I required lots of work to be completed but nothing was in any way daunting, painful or frightening and in fact I ended up finding my visits relaxing. Edvina has a very special skill in making you feel relaxed and I immediately trusted her to work on my teeth. I am now very proud of my smile, something I never thought I would be able to say again. All of the staff are pleasant and helpful. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to all especially nervous people who have put off going to the dentist for a while. I have several fillings, a bridge, teeth whitening and veneers. All of which were reasonably priced for the quality that I received.
