What is a Dental Cleaning?

A professional dental cleaning (prophylaxis) removes bacterial plaque, tartar, and external stains that cannot be eliminated with daily brushing. It is performed using specialized instruments and ultrasound to leave your teeth smooth, bright, and healthy.

How is a Dental Cleaning different from Periodontal Treatment?

Dental Cleaning

  • Removes tartar above the gum line

  • Preventive procedure for healthy patients

  • Usually no anesthesia required

  • Once or twice a year

Periodontal Treatment

  • Targets tartar and bacteria below the gum line

  • Curative treatment for diseased gums

  • Generally requires local anesthesia

  • Requires multiple phases and specific maintenance

Dental Cleaning in Adeje, step by step

Initial consultation

Visual examination of your overall oral health: detection of visible tartar, stains, gum inflammation, or possible cavities that may need additional attention.

Complete study

If necessary, control X-rays to detect hidden tartar between teeth or below the gum line that is not visible to the naked eye.

Manual cleaning and polishing

We remove finer residue with specific hand instruments and apply a professional polishing paste to leave your teeth smooth, shiny, and free of surface stains.

Sealant and fluoride application if needed

In children or sensitive areas, we apply fluoride varnish to strengthen enamel and protect against future cavities. We also provide personalized brushing guidelines.

Frequently asked questions about Dental Cleaning

How often should I get a professional dental cleaning?

Generally, we recommend a cleaning every 6 to 12 months. Your dentist will adjust the frequency based on your oral health, hygiene habits, and tendency to accumulate tartar.

Does dental cleaning hurt?

No. On healthy teeth it is completely painless. If you have sensitive or inflamed gums, there may be mild discomfort that disappears once the procedure is finished.

What happens if I don't get professional cleanings?

Tartar that is not removed hardens and can only be eliminated by a professional. Over time, buildup causes gum inflammation, bleeding, bad breath, and can lead to periodontal disease.

Will I see immediate results?

Yes. Once the cleaning is finished, you will notice your teeth feel smoother, look brighter, and you will experience a total sense of freshness. Many surface stains caused by coffee, tea, or tobacco will also disappear.
