Teeth Cleaning & Polishing: frequently asked questions
How often do I need a dental cleaning?
A regular clean is usually advised at an interval your dentist sets according to your gum health and how quickly calculus builds up.
Does cleaning weaken the teeth?
No. The instrument removes calculus without removing enamel. Any sense of gaps comes from the accumulated calculus being gone.
Does cleaning whiten teeth?
It removes surface staining so the colour looks cleaner, but it does not change the natural shade as whitening does.
Is cleaning painful?
Usually not. Local anaesthetic may be used where there is severe gum inflammation.
