Dental Cleaning FAQs

How often should I get a cleaning?
Most adults benefit from every 6 months. If you’re managing gum disease, we’ll recommend a custom interval.
Will it be uncomfortable?
We use gentle techniques and can numb sensitive areas if needed. Tell us how you’re feeling — we’ll adjust.
Are X-rays required?
We take them only as needed for a complete picture of your oral health, and we’ll explain why before we do.
Can I whiten at the same visit?
Often yes. Cleanings are a great first step before whitening so results look even and natural.
