Cleaning

A professional Dental Cleaning, also known as dental prophylaxis, is an important odontological procedure to prevent disease and alterations in the mouth area.

Benefits
We tend to believe that having an occasional professional dental cleaning is enough - that is a misunderstanding. The ideal situation is to have a cleaning every 6 months. We have to keep in mind that dental brushing and flossing are basically preventive measures that should be accompanied by prophylaxis to fight and eliminate caries and other problems that may develop over time.

Procedure
There are many different ways to perform a professional dental cleaning. The procedure varies according to equipment, skills and knowledge of the odontologist.
