Best Candidates
Everyone is encouraged by the American Dental Association (ADA) to get a professional cleaning every six months. A professional cleaning can reduce the formation of cavities since plaque that has built up on the enamel, which is the main cause of decay, is eliminated. A dental cleaning also removes tartar and stains on your enamel that make your smile look yellow and dull. If you’d like to brighten your smile, freshen your breath, and stay proactive with your dental health, make an appointment for a professional cleaning for everyone in your family at MINT dentistry in Houston, TX.
What to Expect
A professional cleaning at MINT dentistry begins once you have gotten comfortable in a plush treatment chair with built-in massage features. After sliding on a pair of our stylish MINT sunglasses to protect your eyes, a member of the MINT team will begin addressing the plaque and tartar that have accumulated on your teeth. Cutting-edge dental equipment and modern techniques are used to remove tartar without harming your enamel or causing you discomfort. To start, an ultrasonic device works away larger areas of tartar and plaque by softening them with a lubricating mist, then removing them with gentle vibrations. Then, a handheld instrument such as a curette or scaler will be used to clean away smaller pieces of tartar and plaque. Each tooth will be attended to for optimal cleanliness. As soon as your teeth have been cleaned, the enamel will be polished to strengthen your teeth and remove stains. If needed or requested, a fluoride treatment can be performed following the cleaning process.
During your entire cleaning, we will make sure you feel comfortable and relaxed. With massage chairs, Beats headphones, and state-of-the-art equipment, visits to MINT dentistry are such a luxurious experience you may forget we are a dental practice!
