What Are Dental Cleanings?
Even if you are brushing and flossing your teeth perfectly at home, it is still important to get a dental cleaning at least twice a year. Utilizing professional dental equipment, a dental cleaning eliminates built-up tartar and plaque and then polishes the enamel for a healthier, brighter smile. During your cleaning, Dr. Palmer will discuss any areas that need special care and provide you with tips on caring for your teeth at home. A professional cleaning will also give Dr. Palmer and his team the opportunity to identify any issues in the mouth that may need treatment. Dental cleanings are a vital part of maintaining your dental health so we invite you to schedule your cleaning at Palmer Dental Group of Houston today.
How Are Dental Cleanings Performed?
A professional cleaning at Palmer Dental Group of Houston will begin by removing the built-up tartar and plaque deposits on your teeth, which are difficult to treat on your own no matter how often you brush and floss. Advanced dental instruments are used to carefully remove buildup without harming the tooth. First, a device with ultrasonic technology addresses large areas of plaque and tartar with high-speed vibrations and a lubricating mist. Next, a fine handheld instrument, such as a curette or scaler, will be used to remove the remaining buildup. Every tooth needs to be individually scaled to ensure all tartar and plaque deposits are addressed. After the teeth have been scaled, the enamel will be polished to remove stains and strengthen the teeth. A professional fluoride treatment can be performed after your cleaning if requested or needed.
What Are the Benefits of Dental Cleanings?
Regular dental cleanings offer patients in the Houston, TX area a number of advantages. In addition to helping individuals maintain their oral health, other benefits of dental cleanings include:
- Option to select a fluoride treatment to strengthen and protect dental health
- Helps to prevent conditions, like dental cavities, or other concerns before they progress
- Reduces plaque and debris buildup
- Enhances oral health and the appearance of your smile
Dental Cleanings Reviews
I had a fantastic experience with Greg Palmer's dental practice. Both the hygienist and Dr. Palmer were incredibly gentle and caring throughout my visit. Dr. Palmer even went above and beyond by accommodating me with a filling during what was initially scheduled as a cleaning appointment. As someone who commutes from out of town, I truly appreciated the extra effort and attention to my needs. Highly recommend!! They're the absolute best!
One of the best dental offices Houston has to offer! The entire staff was very efficient, friendly, and provided a comfortable environment. Dr. Palmer was very skilled knowledgeable while answering any questions or concerns that I had during my exam. I went in for a cleaning with the hygienist, Victoria and she was extremely gentle and very meticulous when it came to my cleaning, which every patient deserves to have a hygienist that cares and pays attention to detail to your teeth. I think this is the best cleaning I’ve had to date! The office itself is very clean with newest high tech dentistry devices. Highly recommend and will be back for future services! Grateful for the entire staff!
Absolutely the most complete cleaning and exam I have ever had with a dentist. They were welcoming and made me feel right at home. Thank you Dr. Palmer.
Today I went in to Dr. Palmer Dental Group for cleaning and filling.. once again the facility was very clean and smelling great, I was welcomed with a smile and I took x-ray and was explained all my options that better suited my condition and my wallet.. everyone in this dental office is awesome 😎
I had an exceptional experience at Dr. Palmer's dental practice. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly and made to feel right at home. The office ambiance was modern and inviting, and the cleanliness was top-notch, which immediately put me at ease. Dr. Palmer and his dental hygienist, Victoria, were not only highly professional but also incredibly courteous throughout my visit. They took the time to explain each step of the process, ensuring I felt comfortable and informed at all times. What truly stood out to me was their attention to detail and their genuine care for their patients' well-being. One thoughtful touch that made my visit even more pleasant was the personalized welcome sign with my name on it—a small gesture that spoke volumes about their commitment to customer satisfaction. Additionally, being able to watch Netflix during my cleaning was a fantastic perk that helped me relax and feel more at ease. Overall, I couldn't be more satisfied with the level of service I received from Dr. Palmer and Victoria. I highly recommend this practice to anyone in search of quality dental care in a welcoming environment. Thank you, Dr. Palmer and Victoria, for your exceptional care!
