What Happens During a Teeth Cleaning?

Brushing and flossing your teeth daily keeps them healthy, but professional cleanings can prevent plaque and tartar buildup. Before a teeth cleaning session, your dental hygienist will take a physical examination of your entire mouth to check for things like gingivitis and other concerns.
Next, they will remove any plaque and tartar around the gumline with a scraping tool. (Pro Tip: If this is your least favorite part of the teeth cleaning process, make sure to floss every day!)
Once the tartar is removed, your dental hygienist will use a high-powered electric brush to deep clean your teeth. The toothpaste used has a gritty texture to scrub the teeth.
Next, your dental hygienist will floss your teeth and rinse your mouth. Afterward, you’ll get a fluoride treatment.

Why should you choose Pola whitening over others?

Some teeth whitening products are produced by companies with limited dental experience and unclear manufacturing origins. Most online teeth whitening systems only use sodium bicarbonate as the active whitening ingredient. This weaker formula can only treat mild surface stains.
Pola is produced by SDI, an Australian company that has 50 years of experience in oral health. Pola’s scientific formula has been refined for decades to ensure the best whitening result. Clinical studies have shown that teeth whitening with carbamide or hydrogen peroxide is safe if performed under the guidance and supervision of a trained dentist.
Better yet, Pola whitening gels can only be purchased through trusted dentists.

FAQ

Do teeth cleanings hurt?

Teeth cleanings are usually comfortable. You may feel mild pressure or sensitivity, especially if there’s tartar buildup. Our gentle approach helps keep you relaxed throughout the visit.

Can teeth cleaning remove stains from coffee or tea?

Yes. Professional cleanings remove many surface stains from coffee, tea, and wine. While not the same as whitening, a cleaning can noticeably brighten your smile.

Should I eat before a dental cleaning?

Yes, a light meal is fine. Brushing before your visit is helpful too. Avoid heavy meals right before your appointment for comfort.

Can I get a cleaning while pregnant?

Yes. Dental cleanings are safe and recommended during pregnancy. Healthy gums help support overall health for both mom and baby.
