Take care of your teeth and gums

Routine teeth cleanings and checkups are vital for maintaining oral health, including your teeth, gums, and entire mouth. Professional cleanings remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria that cause decay, gum disease, and bad breath. Hygienists can reach areas missed by brushing and flossing, while exams allow early detection of issues, preventing pain and costly treatments.

In addition, regular teeth cleanings naturally whiten and brighten your smile without the need for bleaching treatments.

    Regular teeth cleanings:

  • Remove plaque, a sticky bacteria-filled film that damages enamel.
  • Clean hardened tartar, which can contribute to gum disease.
  • Erase stains from coffee, tea, and other beverages.
  • Detect receding gums, damaged teeth, and potential signs of infection or disease.

What happens during a teeth cleaning?

Gum Health

Your gums play a vital role in supporting your teeth and shaping your smile, yet they’re often overlooked. During your visit, we thoroughly examine your tongue, gums, teeth, and the entire mouth, with special attention to the gum line, ensuring optimal oral health and checking for any signs of inflammation or gum disease. And don’t worry—we’ll be gentle when discussing your flossing habits!

Plaque & Tartar Removal

Plaque is a soft, sticky layer that forms on your teeth. Without regular brushing, flossing, and professional cleaning, it hardens into tartar—a darker substance often found in hard-to-reach areas like the gumline. Hygienists use specialized tools and expertise to carefully remove plaque and tartar buildup. Once cleared, they polish your teeth, eliminating surface stains and leaving your smile bright and clean.

Dental Exam

Following your cleaning, it’s the ideal time for a dentist to examine your teeth. They’ll review your chart and X-rays, focusing on any problem areas or recurring issues. The dentist may suggest additional treatments or provide tips to help manage or prevent tooth decay, inflammation, or gum disease. We’re always happy to answer your questions and address any concerns about discomfort, sensitivity, or dental pain you may have experienced.

Cost of Teeth Cleaning in Oakville

Routine checkups and cleanings are essential for preventing dental issues, and most insurance plans cover them almost fully, typically every 6 months. If you don’t have dental insurance, the cost usually ranges from $120 to $300 or more, particularly if it’s your first visit or you haven’t had a cleaning in a while.

    When determining the cost of your treatment, we take into account several important factors:

  • Your current oral health.
  • Whether new X-rays are needed.
  • The time required by the dental team to address your specific needs.
  • The equipment and supplies necessary for your treatment.

Routine appointments are essential to us, as they help prevent the need for invasive procedures, reduce the risk of severe dental pain, and ensure you stay happy and healthy.

to schedule an initial consultation & exam.

Your consultation will include an examination of everything from your teeth, gums and soft tissues to the shape and condition of your bite. Generally, we want to see how your whole mouth looks and functions. Before we plan your treatment we want to know everything about the health and aesthetic of your smile, and, most importantly, what you want to achieve so we can help you get there.

Frequently Asked Questions

We typically recommend having your teeth cleaned and checked every 6 months. However, if you have specific needs, the dentist may suggest more frequent visits, or we may schedule appointments further apart if necessary due to insurance or cost considerations.

Don’t delay! If you’re feeling any pain or discomfort, reach out to us immediately. While cleanings help prevent issues, they’re not the only time to address concerns. Even if the problem seems small, let us know now so we can take care of it before it becomes more serious.

Yes, absolutely. Checkups are important for your entire mouth, including your gums, tongue, and bones. Even if you wear dentures, we still recommend regular visits to ensure your dentures are in good condition and properly fitted, as well as to monitor the overall health of your mouth.

Dental cleanings generally take between 30 minutes to an hour, and are performed while you relax in a comfortable chair.

Use tartar-control toothpaste with fluoride. While brushing is important, dental floss is essential for removing plaque between your teeth and preventing tartar in hard-to-reach areas. Additionally, rinse with an antiseptic mouthwash daily to kill the bacteria that cause plaque buildup.

After a regular dental cleaning, you can eat right away, but it’s best to avoid acidic or abrasive foods and drinks. If you had a fluoride treatment during your cleaning, wait at least 30 minutes before eating.

Brushing and flossing after your cleaning is the best way to maintain the results and keep your teeth in good condition.

Coming from someone who is scared to death of dentists and needles, those ladies are literally the only ones I would recommend to trust with your teeth and fears 😅 I have had 9 huge cavities cleaned and filled, and not once have I felt pain or discomfort during or after the procedure! They have the lightest hands I have ever tried, and the nicest treatment and warmest welcome one could possibly experience 🥰 I have also had my 6 year-old’s cavities done, and the attention and caring they all showed was truly over and beyond 😊 Never imagined I would go into a dentist’s clinic smiling, nor leaving a dentist’s clinic having had a nice, pain-free experience! ☺️ This clinic and the lovely ladies that work there are definitely highly and truly recommended for all ages 😊 The clinic itself is also one of the cleanest I have ever seen as well 🥰♥️ They know how to make one feel at home away from home! 🥰 Thank you so much, White Orchid, for everything!
