Teeth Cleaning

Teeth cleaning, also known as dental prophylaxis or professional cleaning, is a preventive dental procedure that involves the removal of plaque, tartar, and stains from the teeth. It helps maintain oral hygiene, prevents gum disease, and contributes to a brighter, healthier smile.

At Medixir Clinic, we perform comprehensive teeth cleanings using advanced ultrasonic scalers and polishing tools to gently remove buildup without harming tooth enamel. Regular professional cleanings are an essential part of preventive dental care.

Even with excellent home care, plaque can harden into tartar in areas that are difficult to reach with brushing and flossing alone. Tartar cannot be removed at home and must be professionally eliminated to prevent inflammation and gum problems.

Our teeth cleaning process typically includes scaling (removing hardened deposits), polishing (smoothing the tooth surface), and fluoride treatment for added protection. We also assess the health of your gums and provide personalized oral hygiene advice.

Teeth cleaning is recommended at least twice a year for most people. However, individuals with gum disease, braces, or certain health conditions may need more frequent visits to maintain optimal oral health.

Benefits of teeth cleaning include fresher breath, whiter teeth, reduced risk of cavities, healthier gums, and the early detection of oral issues such as decay, infections, or periodontal disease.

The procedure is quick, safe, and non-invasive. Most cleanings take 30–60 minutes and involve minimal discomfort. Patients often report feeling refreshed and confident after their visit.

Skipping dental cleanings can lead to plaque buildup, gum inflammation (gingivitis), and eventually more serious conditions like periodontitis, tooth mobility, and tooth loss. Preventive care is always more cost-effective and simpler than treatment for advanced disease.

Our expert dental hygienists at Medixir Clinic are trained to deliver gentle, thorough care in a calming environment. Whether it’s your first cleaning or a routine visit, we ensure your comfort at every step.
