INCREDIBLE RESULTS
Dental Cleaning
One of the best parts of going to the dentist is coming away from your visit with teeth that feel slick and clean. Although you can do your best to maintain it, it’s hard to match that fresh-from-the-dentist sensation.
Professional Dental Cleaning
Professional dental cleanings (dental prophylaxis) are usually performed by Registered Dental Hygienists. Your cleaning appointment will include a dental exam and the following:

Dental Checkup & Cleaning
Professional dental cleaning is about more than just brightening your smile, however, as it contributes to your overall health. Many serious conditions and illnesses have been linked to poor oral hygiene, such as cardiovascular disease, bone loss, strokes, and cancer. Some benefits of dental cleaning include:
Brighter Smile
Your teeth will be brighter and whiter once the dental hygienist has worked to remove the stains that dull and discolour your teeth. (See here how to keep your teeth from staining)
Prevents Gum Disease
A professional dental cleaning can prevent gum disease.
Prevents Tooth Loss
Gum disease can lead to tooth loss. Since regular dental cleanings can prevent gum disease, you are also preventing premature tooth loss.
Fresher Breath
Proper oral hygiene is the best way to prevent persistent bad breath. Brushing and flossing at home are great, but a professional cleaning takes you one step further and helps keep your breath fresh.
Cancer Detection
Many oral cancers are curable if detected early during routine cleaning.
Better Heart Health
Gum disease has been linked to cardiovascular disease. Regular cleanings help prevent gum disease, thus reducing the likelihood of heart attacks and strokes.
Detection of Other Issues
With regular professional cleanings, it is easy to detect small problems before they become larger ones, such as broken fillings.
Saves You Money
Because routine cleanings help your dental care team spot issues early on, it can save you from more expensive treatments later.
With regular dental cleanings, your dentist and dental hygienist can closely monitor your oral health by comparing your current condition to that of your previous visits. If they see issues developing, they can take action to correct the situation.
