How Much is a Tooth Cleaning?

You can now receive a routine checkup and tooth cleaning for only $25.
A teeth cleaning is a preventative dental procedure performed to thoroughly clean the teeth. Bi-annual teeth cleanings are vital to prevent gingivitis and gum disease. Dental Cleanings are very effective in keeping the oral cavity in proper health and reversing the progression of gingivitis.

The benefits include:

• Fresher breath. Halitosis or bad breath is generally a sign of advancing periodontitis. A combination of rotting food particles (possibly under the gum) and potential gangrene stemming from gum infection, results in bad breath. The routine removal of plaque, calculus, and bacteria can noticeably reduce halitosis and infection of the gums.

• A healthier-looking smile. Yellow and stained teeth can dramatically decrease the esthetics of a smile. Teeth Cleanings are an effective step in ridding the teeth of these unpleasant stains.

• Plaque removal. Tartar, also referred to as calculus, and plaque buildup, above and below the gum line, can result in severe periodontitis. Unfortunately, even if you brush and floss regularly at home, it can be impossible to get rid of all tartar, plaque, and deposits from gingival pockets. The experienced eye of a dentist using specific dental equipment is necessary to treat potentially damaging buildup.
