What are the Different Types of Teeth Cleanings?
At Baysmiles Dental we offer a few options for teeth cleaning. We can do a standard maintenance cleaning for our patients who have been practicing a healthy home routine, as well as a deep cleaning for any patient who’s might require a little more attention.
Maintenance – Our standard maintenance will have your dentist perform a cleaning that aids in preventative tooth decay, utilizing various tools that can help eliminate plaque and tartar accumulated since your previous visit.
Deep Cleaning – After your initial examination, your doctor will begin the root planning treatment with a topical anesthetic (however if you prefer, an IV sedation may be available). The surfaces of your teeth are smoothed out to prevent any more plaque from accumulating. This process will also allow the irritated or infected gum tissue to heal. Depending on the severity of the periodontal disease, full-mouth root planing may be performed. This can be done by splitting your treatment into quadrants, or all in one sitting, depending on the time frame discussed between you and your doctor.

What are the Benefits of Teeth Cleanings?
Even if you are diligent about brushing and flossing your teeth routinely, gum disease is still an issue for everyone. Through the use of innovative methods, our doctors take pride in helping reduce gum disease and, with the assistance of proactive patients, even possibly reverse it.
Gives you Fresher Breath – bad breath, also called halitosis, is one of the first signs of periodontal disease. This is usually caused by bacteria in your mouth created from rotting food particles accumulated below the gum line and infected gum tissue.
Removal of Tartar – tartar (and eventually plaque) can build up on your teeth, which affects the structures above and below the gum line, becoming a serious problem over time. Routine cleanings will remove plaque deposits, bacteria, and debris that are near impossible to detect and remove at home.
Improved Aesthetics – Yellow or stained teeth can be whitened and brightened, giving you a youthful, more confident smile.
