Keeping your smile healthy starts with regular dental cleanings, and at Wilson Family Dental, we make the experience comfortable and thorough. Cleanings leave your teeth feeling fresh and play a vital role in preventing serious dental issues.
We’re here to keep your family’s oral health on track while providing a caring, welcoming environment that feels like home.
What Is a Dental Cleaning?
Dental cleaning is a professional procedure for removing plaque, tartar, and stains from teeth. A hygienist uses special tools to clean areas that brushing and flossing alone can’t reach.

Why Are Dental Cleanings Important?
Regular cleanings help prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. They also allow your dentist to catch potential issues early, saving you time and money on future treatments.
How Often Should I Get a Dental Cleaning?
Most people should schedule a cleaning every six months. However, if you have specific conditions, like gum disease, your dentist may recommend more frequent visits.
Does a Dental Cleaning Hurt?
Cleanings are generally painless. You may feel some pressure or mild sensitivity, but our gentle hygienists work to ensure you’re as comfortable as possible.
What Happens During a Dental Cleaning?
- Examination: We check for signs of decay, gum disease, or other concerns.
- Plaque and Tartar Removal: We carefully clean your teeth using special tools.
- Polishing: We polish your teeth to remove surface stains and leave them smooth.
- Fluoride Treatment (optional): A fluoride rinse helps strengthen your enamel.
Can Dental Cleanings Brighten My Smile?
Yes! While cleanings aren’t the same as whitening, they remove surface stains, giving your teeth a brighter, fresher appearance.
