Why Is It Important to Get Regular Tooth Cleaning?
Before brushing, you’ll notice a thin film of plaque appears on your teeth every day. It’s a sticky, transparent film that covers the teeth and gum line. While brushing and flossing are used to eradicate most of this buildup, it can’t reach every corner. Leftover plaque, hidden in gaps and corners, transforms into tartar that can’t be cleaned with a simple brushing. Tartar, if further ignored, causes gingivitis, with redness, swelling, and bleeding gums as visible symptoms. In severe cases, it can turn into a severe periodontal condition which significantly affects teeth and gums.
Signs You Need Tooth Cleaning Immediately
Unlike a major cavity, tooth buildup develops quietly. It rarely makes itself known till a simple tartar buildup and causes significant damage to your teeth and gums. If you notice these signs, tooth cleaning must be your priority:
Bleeding Gums
Gums that bleed even if you brush or floss with the lightest touch. Bleeding gums are among the earliest signs of inflammation.
Bad breath caused by stuck food particles or tartar buildup that does not go away with brushing or chewing gum.
A yellow or beige crust forming in the gaps between your teeth and gums. Such a layer mainly forms behind the lower front teeth or along the upper back teeth.
Gums that are tender to the touch, swollen, or seem like they are pulling away from the teeth. This is a major signal that tartar build-up has caused significant gum damage.
Our Teeth Cleaning Process
If you notice any of these symptoms, it is advisable to get immediate treatment. Our dentists conduct tailored cleaning services, depending on the severity of build-up in your mouth. Our tooth cleaning process is comfortable for patients of every age group, involving:
Our experts assess your teeth and gums before beginning. We look for signs of concern, checking for tooth decay or gum disease.20-30 minutes
Using hand instruments, we carefully scrape away the tartar build-up from your teeth and gumline..20-40 minutes
We apply a gentle polish to remove tooth discolouration and staining, while smoothing the enamel. A fluoride application helps reduce future plaque build-up. 5-10 minutes
We check your gums for inflammation and bleeding. Our experts provide tailored advice on brushing, flossing, and home tooth care. 15-20 minutes
Complete Treatment Timeline: Same-Day Cleaning Process
Tooth cleaning can easily be done in a single session. It’s a short procedure that takes 45 minutes to an hour, with no need for anesthesia. In severe cases, if the plaque has significantly damaged the tooth or gums, a few follow-up appointments are necessary to restore your oral health.
Unsure How You Teeth are Really Doing?
How Often Should You Get Your Teeth Cleaned by a Dentist?
Age and the extent of tooth damage are the main factors that determine the duration of how often your teeth need cleaning. Individuals with good oral hygiene must visit a dentist for tooth cleaning every 6 months. Patients who frequently complain of pain, bleeding, or cavities must visit every 3 to 4 months to access the benefits of teeth cleaning.
- Children (6 months - 12 years): Parents should bring their kids in for a dental checkup as soon as their molars come in. Beginning professional cleaning from a young age is the best preventive measure to avoid further dental issues.
- Teens & Adults (13-60 years): While 6 months is the minimum, patients who drink caffeine or alcohol and smoke might need to visit more frequently.
- Seniors (60+ Years): As age progresses, monitoring gum health regularly is a must. Visiting every 3 or 4 months can especially benefit patients who have diabetes or osteoporosis. It’s also a must for seniors who take medication that reduces saliva production.
What’s the Next Step After Tooth Cleaning?
Prevention is just the first step. In most cases, patients need much more than just tooth cleaning to improve their oral health. At Oris Dental, we’ve had 20+ years of experience providing restorative and diagnostic treatments for better oral hygiene, including:
- Digital X-Rays: With low UV exposure, dental X-rays are used to check for decay or bone loss below the gumline that’s not visible to the naked eye.
- White Fillings or Crowns: If the tooth decays due to advanced tartar buildup, white fillings or crowns are recommended treatment choices to restore the tooth’s appearance and strength.
- Gum Disease Treatment: Restoring the damage done by gum disease, freeing you from bleeding of the gum, swelling, and redness.
- Cosmetic Treatments: Depending on your tooth’s condition, choose between Invisalign, teeth whitening, aligners, or a complete smile makeover to restore your smile’s appearance.
