What Is a Teeth Cleaning?

Teeth cleanings, also known as dental cleanings, are preventive treatments performed by a hygienist or dentist to remove buildup that brushing and flossing alone can’t reach. Professional cleanings help prevent cavities, reduce gum inflammation, and support overall oral health.

We recommend most patients get a dental cleaning every six months, though more frequent visits may be suggested for those with gum disease or other dental conditions.

Common Reasons to Schedule a Teeth Cleaning

Even if your teeth feel clean, plaque and tartar can build up in hard-to-reach places. Common reasons people schedule a cleaning include:

Plaque and tartar buildup

Sticky plaque hardens into tartar, which only a professional can safely remove.

Gum inflammation or bleeding

Regular dental cleanings help treat and prevent gingivitis and other early signs of gum disease.

Bad breath (halitosis)

Deep teeth cleanings remove odor-causing bacteria trapped under the gumline.

Preventing cavities

Removing buildup and applying fluoride when needed can prevent tooth decay.

Stain removal

Cleanings gently polish away surface stains from food, drinks, or tobacco.

Monitoring oral health

Your dental cleaning includes a dental exam to catch issues early and keep your smile on track.

Signs It’s Time for a Dental Cleaning

You may benefit from a teeth cleaning if you:

  • Notice bleeding when you brush or floss
  • Have lingering bad breath despite good hygiene
  • See yellow or brown buildup near your gumline
  • Are overdue for your 6-month dental cleaning
  • Want to maintain your smile’s appearance and health

Our team can help you get back on track with a gentle dental cleaning experience.

Our Patients Say The Nicest Things!

Excellent
After 25 years of not smiling, I can finally smile!!! I just received my new implants for my entire mouth and it feels so good to have a genuine smile. Dr. Greg, Dr. Le and the entire staff are amazing. They truly make you feel like a person and just a number like most doctors and dentist. They are very particular in every aspect which separates them from everyone else. I am so happy I chose Comprehension Dental and definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for any type of dental work.
The hygienist is very thorough. She is friendly and always does a great job. The office staff is also very helpful.
Response from the owner:Love your five star review! Thanks so much Gayle! 🙂
I am totally pleased with how wonderful-this office is! First off, the office is impeccably clean, which is extremely important to me. All the front desk staff is top-notch A+ in customer service! I do not think they could find a better receptionist than the one they have as she’s amazing. My appointment started off with be introduced to Rhonda, Dr Majors dental assistant, which she took all my CT scans and x-rays. Rhonda makes you feel so comfortable right off the bat, like she’s a friend and is so thorough and helpful! Thank you, Rhonda! Then my visit I met Dr. Major. Dr Major answered every single one of my questions and thoroughly went through everything I need to know about my dental health! I never felt more comfortable with another dentist as I do with Dr. Major. You feel like you can total trust office. Thank you for everything! Looking forward to my next visit!
Emily is my hygienist. She is so nice , very careful and gentle.
Ok
If you read these, read this one, I went here because I hate the dentist, not that I want a new person to dislike, but after reading all of the reviews for the thousands of dentists in this city, this office seemed like the best of the worst, worst because there a dental office and I don't wanna go anyway. So I finally get there, get in the room, meet Monica, aka "Mo", ask for her, she is awesome, gave more of an empathetic feel rather then the usual clinical where does it hurt, ok this is what were gonna do. Start to layout my story of why im here and what im looking to have done, as a dental helper she flipped the script. Oh you need to talk tk Gregg, so im like great, nerves kick back in, anxiety kicks up, then big Gregg Hendrickson walks in, honestly... he seals the deal, gives you the honest answer, the comfort, the ok, this is the guy im comfortable letting do what I need done but don't want to, lots of dental work, they're a one stop shop, if you don't want to waste the hrs of research and happen to run across this review, know I have seen way to many dentists in my life and this place felt different, from even the pre screen interview before you, first time in 50 years I feel confident with the Dr, the staff, and I only met 3, the scheduling money lady is amazing and funny too, but alas I did not catch her name, she will know who she is when she reads this... thanks for taking care of me and I think I have found my dentist for a while
Dr Kevin is a very professional, competent dentist. Him and his staff made me feel comfortable from the beginning and have been great to me ever since.
Response from the owner:Thank you Fernando for your kind words! We appreciate having wonderful patients like you! 🙂
