A teeth cleaning at Precision Dentistry of Williamsburg is more than just a cookie-cutter check up; it’s a comprehensive oral health assessment and preventive measure that plays a crucial role in maintaining your radiant smile! Our teeth cleaning process involves the removal of plaque and tartar that have built up on your teeth over time. This build-up, if not addressed, can lead to serious dental issues such as gum disease, cavities, and even tooth loss. Our professional teeth cleaning services are designed to ensure your smile remains healthy, bright, and beautiful.
Regular teeth cleaning is an essential part of your oral hygiene routine. It's not just about having a sparkling smile, but it's also about maintaining your overall health. Poor oral hygiene can lead to a range of health issues beyond your mouth, including heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.
Regular teeth cleaning sessions with Dr. Devin McClintock can help detect early signs of these conditions. Additionally, professional teeth cleaning can reach areas that are hard to clean with routine brushing and flossing, ensuring a thorough clean that leaves your mouth feeling fresh and healthy.
The average person only brushes for 45 to 70 seconds a day, the recommended amount of time is 2-3 minutes.

Teeth cleaning helps to prevent gum disease, an infection of the tissues that surround and support your teeth. Gum disease is a major cause of tooth loss in adults. By removing plaque and tartar, teeth cleaning prevents the growth of harmful bacteria that cause gum disease and inflammation.
Over time, our teeth can become stained from food, drinks, and certain medications. Teeth cleaning can help to remove these stains, leaving you with a brighter, whiter smile. It's an easy and effective way to boost your confidence and improve your appearance.
Research has shown a link between oral and overall health. Regular teeth cleaning may help to lower your risk for some diseases, like heart disease and stroke. Many medical conditions, some of them life-threatening, can be detected in their early stages through regular oral exams.
The first step in the teeth cleaning process is a thorough oral examination. This includes a visual examination of your teeth and gums, as well as an oral cancer screening. This step allows Dr. McClintock to assess your oral health and identify any potential issues.
The next step involves the removal of plaque and tartar that have built up on your teeth. Using specialized dental tools, Dr. McClintock will gently scrape away these deposits, particularly focusing on areas that are hard to reach with regular brushing and flossing.
The final step in the teeth cleaning process is polishing. This involves using a high-powered brush and a special toothpaste to give your teeth a thorough clean and polish. This step helps to get rid of any leftover plaque or tartar and leaves your teeth feeling smooth and shiny.
