Questions
Regular Teeth Cleaning in Mexico: the questions we get.
What is a regular teeth cleaning?
A professional dental procedure that removes plaque, tartar, and stains from teeth using specialized tools. It includes scaling, polishing, and fluoride treatment to maintain oral health.
How often should I get my teeth cleaned?
Most people should get professional cleanings every six months. However, those with gum disease or other risk factors may need cleanings every 3-4 months.
Does teeth cleaning hurt?
Regular cleanings are generally painless, though you may experience mild discomfort during scaling. Any sensitivity typically subsides within a few hours after treatment.
How long does a dental cleaning take?
A typical cleaning appointment lasts 30-60 minutes, depending on the amount of plaque buildup and your individual oral health needs.
What's the difference between cleaning and deep cleaning?
Regular cleaning maintains healthy gums above the gumline. Deep cleaning treats gum disease by removing tartar below the gumline and may require numbing.
Can I eat after a teeth cleaning?
Yes, but avoid staining foods and very hot/cold items for a few hours if you received fluoride treatment or experience sensitivity.
Will teeth cleaning whiten my teeth?
Cleaning removes surface stains and reveals your teeth's natural color but isn't a whitening treatment. It may make teeth appear brighter.
Is teeth cleaning covered by insurance?
Most dental insurance plans cover two cleanings per year as preventive care. Check your specific policy for coverage details and limitations.
Can children get teeth cleanings?
Yes, children should start regular cleanings around age 2-3 or when most primary teeth have emerged. Early cleanings establish good oral hygiene habits.
What happens if I skip regular cleanings?
Skipping cleanings allows plaque to harden into tartar, increasing risk of cavities, gum disease, and tooth loss. Professional cleaning is essential for oral health.
Do I need to brush before my cleaning appointment?
Yes, maintain your normal oral hygiene routine before your appointment. Brushing beforehand is courteous and helps the hygienist work more effectively.
Can I get teeth cleaning while pregnant?
Yes, dental cleanings are safe and recommended during pregnancy. Pregnancy hormones increase gum disease risk, making regular cleanings especially important.
What tools are used during teeth cleaning?
Common tools include scalers for tartar removal, high-powered electric brushes, professional toothpaste, floss, suction devices, and fluoride application tools.
Why do my gums bleed during cleaning?
Bleeding typically indicates gum inflammation from plaque buildup. Regular cleanings and improved home care usually reduce bleeding over time.
Can teeth cleaning prevent cavities?
Yes, regular cleanings remove cavity-causing bacteria and plaque. Combined with fluoride treatment, cleanings significantly reduce cavity risk.
What's included in a standard cleaning appointment?
A standard cleaning includes oral examination, plaque/tartar removal, tooth polishing, professional flossing, rinsing, and fluoride treatment.
Should I take medication before cleaning?
Most people don't need pre-medication. However, those with certain heart conditions or joint replacements may need antibiotics. Consult your dentist.
Can teeth cleaning fix bad breath?
Yes, cleaning removes odor-causing bacteria and food particles. Regular cleanings combined with good home care effectively combat chronic bad breath.
What if I have sensitive teeth during cleaning?
Inform your hygienist about sensitivity. They can adjust technique, use desensitizing agents, or recommend special toothpaste for sensitive teeth.
How do I maintain results between cleanings?
Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, floss daily, use antimicrobial mouthwash, limit sugary foods, and avoid tobacco products.
