Maintain a Healthy, Confident Smile with Regular Dental Cleanings

Dental cleanings in Sacramento, California, are the foundation of a healthy smile. Unlike brushing and flossing, professional teeth cleanings remove plaque, tartar, and surface stains from areas you can’t reach with your toothbrush. 

Has it been over six months since your last dental cleaning? Visit Dynamic Dental for gentle, top-tier services. Dr. Ricardo Andrade, Dr. Denisse Montalvo, and our team will help you maintain the healthy smile you deserve with regular dental cleanings. 

What can I expect during a dental cleaning?

Cleaning your teeth in Sacramento, California, is a painless, non-invasive procedure. Here’s what you can expect. 

  • Examination: We review your medical and dental history to ensure that any medical conditions are considered during cleaning. We’ll also examine your teeth and gums for signs of cavities, gum disease, and other irregularities. 

  • Teeth cleaning: The dentist/dental hygienist uses special tools and skills to remove unhealthy deposits between teeth and just beneath the gum line. If you notice us spending more time on a particular region, it’s because of built-up deposits. 

  • Polishing: The dentist will polish your teeth with a rotating brush and gritty toothpaste. This step removes surface stains and maintains a smooth, natural appearance. After cleaning, this is the right opportunity to talk to your dentist about teeth whitening or other procedures. 

We’ll give you personalized advice on how to maintain your teeth at home with good nutrition and proper brushing and flossing techniques. Based on your oral health needs, we’ll also advise on how often you should return for dental cleanings. The standard is every six months, but patients at risk of gum disease and tooth decay may need cleanings more frequently. 

What are the benefits of dental cleanings?

A dental cleaning is more than a fresh-from-the-dentist feeling. Patients are surprised that the benefits go beyond the mouth. Here are the notable benefits of dental cleanings. 

  • Prevention: Removing plaque and tartar protects your smile from cavities and gum disease. 

  • Early detection: The dentist can detect oral issues at their earliest stage, allowing for timely treatment. 

  • Lasting fresh breath: Cleanings remove harmful bacteria from hard-to-reach surfaces in the mouth, ensuring fresh breath. 

  • A more confident smile: Removing surface stains with cleanings helps you maintain a brighter, more radiant smile.

  • It’s cost-effective: Preventive dentistry with routine cleanings avoids the need for costly and invasive procedures. 

  • Enhanced systemic health: A healthy smile is a healthy you. Preventing dental problems like periodontal disease minimizes the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, Alzheimer’s, and other systemic issues. 

What if I skip dental cleanings?

Life can get busy, and sometimes cost and dental fear can make you fall behind with routine cleanings. Unfortunately, skipping regular cleanings can increase the risk of tooth decay, gum disease, bad breath, and other issues. These dental issues are painful and often require resolution with costly treatments. 

Whatever the reason, don’t put off dental cleanings. Our office is committed to removing barriers to your healthy smile. We are insurance-friendly and offer dental financing to make dental care affordable. If you are anxious about your visit, we provide a calming, judgment-free environment to ensure a stress-free experience.
