Teeth Cleaning

Teeth cleanings are essential dental procedures that effectively remove unwanted plaque, which is a sticky film of bacteria that can accumulate on the surface of your teeth. Additionally, they eliminate calculus, also known as hardened plaque, and extrinsic stains, which are the stains that form on the outside of the tooth due to various factors such as food and beverages. This comprehensive cleaning process not only contributes to a healthy mouth but also helps to ensure fresh breath. For optimal results, it is highly recommended to have a dental cleaning performed prior to undergoing teeth whitening treatments.

Fluoride Application

Dental strength fluoride application is an effective treatment designed to combat cold and hot sensitivity while also preventing tooth decay. By enhancing the remineralization of enamel, fluoride helps restore essential minerals that may be lost due to dietary acids and other factors. Additionally, this treatment promotes desensitization, providing relief for individuals experiencing sensitivity. Regular applications can strengthen teeth, making them more resistant to decay and ensuring overall oral health. Incorporating fluoride treatments into your dental care routine is a proactive step towards maintaining lasting dental strength and comfort.
