Dental Cleaning
Spokane Valley, WA


Dental Cleanings in Spokane Valley, WashingtonDaily oral hygiene, even if performed in a precise and systematic way, is not always good enough to completely remove all of the plaque and tartar from our teeth. To completely eliminate plaque and tartar deposits on the teeth, professional dental cleaning is needed. This is a procedure that should be carried out at least every six months in tandem with dental exams, and can be performed quickly at Coulter Family Dentistry.

Advantages of Dental Cleaning


Professional dental cleaning is extremely advantageous because, in addition to ensuring it ensures an enviable state of health for the long term, it can also be used to prevent numerous dental and gum disease. Not surprisingly, in fact, it is often a useful time to carry out dental exams and oral cancer screening.

In addition to counteracting gingival inflammation, reduce the hypersensitivity of the teeth and strengthen the teeth so as to also prevent their premature fall.

It can also be an effective treatment for halitosis, also due to the accumulation of plaque and tartar on the teeth.

What Does Dental Cleaning Consist Of?

Subsequently, the stains are removed from the teeth by applying a particular abrasive paste with a stain removing action and other whitening products, undergoing an additional whitening procedure. Stain removal is a purely aesthetic intervention, such as the subsequent step of polishing the teeth
On request, then, masks containing fluorine and a special paste can also be applied. The masks have the effect of reinforcing and remineralizing the dental enamel, preventing erosion and making the teeth more resistant to the attack of beating. The special paste is used to prevent or minimize tooth hypersensitivity.
Lastly, after a dental cleaning, you need to rinse your mouth thoroughly to eliminate any residual dental paste and you will have to wait at least an hour before taking sugary food or drinks.
