Dental Cleaning
Dental cleaning is an important procedure to maintain good oral health and prevent dental problems. There are different types of dental cleaning, each with its specific characteristics and objectives. Below are some of the most common types of dental cleaning:
Dental prophylaxis
It is important to note that dental prophylaxis is a safe and effective procedure for preventing dental problems and improving dental aesthetics. It is recommended to have your teeth cleaned every six months to maintain good oral health and prevent dental problems. In addition, during the prophylaxis visit, the dentist can instruct the patient in the oral hygiene technique that best suits the state of their mouth, recommend the most appropriate toothpaste or mouthwash according to their caries index, dental sensitivity or oral sequence, and finally prescribe the frequency with which they should go for their oral prophylaxis.
Scaling

- Dental scaling is performed with manual and ultrasonic tools.
- This procedure focuses on the gingival area, or in other words, under the gum line.
