What teeth cleaning can help with
Professional cleaning removes hardened tartar and plaque that regular brushing cannot reach. It can help reduce gum irritation, improve freshness and remove many surface stains.
What to expect
- Assessment of plaque, tartar and gum health.
- Gentle scaling and polishing as appropriate.
- Personalized brushing and flossing guidance.
- Advice about follow-up prevention.
