What Are
Dental Cleanings?
Dental cleanings (also called prophylaxis) are professional treatments designed to remove plaque, tartar, and surface stains from your teeth—especially in areas that are tough to reach with brushing and flossing alone. Cleanings help prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath, while also giving your dentist a chance to monitor your overall oral health.
At Green Lake Cosmetic Dentistry, our cleanings are anything but routine. We take time to get to know you, explain what we’re doing, and ensure you’re completely comfortable every step of the way.
How Do Dental Cleanings Work?
Your cleaning starts with a gentle exam and conversation—no pressure, no lectures. We use digital x-rays (when needed) and an oral cancer screening to get a complete picture of your health.
Then, one of our hygienists will carefully remove tartar and plaque with precision tools, followed by polishing to lift surface stains and smooth your enamel. We’ll finish with a fluoride treatment (if recommended) and give you helpful, personalized tips for keeping your smile fresh between visits.
If we notice signs of gum inflammation or early periodontal issues, we may recommend a deeper cleaning or more frequent visits to get things back on track.
What Cleaning Options Do You Offer?
Routine Dental Cleanings (Prophylaxis)
Recommended every six months for most patients, this is your standard preventive cleaning that removes plaque and tartar from above the gumline.
Children’s Cleanings
We welcome kids and make dental visits fun, not scary. Cleanings for children include education, gentle polishing, and optional fluoride to protect developing smiles.
Periodontal Maintenance
For patients with a history of gum disease or deeper pockets, we offer maintenance cleanings that go beyond the surface to protect your oral and overall health.
