Dental cleaning
Professional cleaning removes plaque and tartar in areas brushes can’t reach, helping prevent gingivitis and periodontal disease. We recommend it every ~6 months as indicated.
What it includes
Periodontal assessment, scaling with ultrasonic/manual instruments and polishing to smooth the tooth surface. If there’s inflammation, we may indicate adjuvant care.
Benefits
