Teeth Cleaning in Amarillo, TX
While dental emergencies can strike anyone, anytime, our patients who commit to regular preventive care appointments usually experience fewer problems over time.
Professional cleanings with a registered dental hygienist allow us to take a proactive approach to your dental health and address issues while they are small. Despite your best efforts, deposits of mineralized plaque, known as tartar, adhere to areas of the teeth. These deposits create a nice home for millions of harmful bacteria. Left unchecked, they flood toxins into the gums resulting in devastating chronic problems and can even result in the loss of teeth.
When tartar is removed during your professional dental hygiene appointment, it doesn’t have the opportunity to cause irreversible damage. Our dentists use professional instruments and prescription-strength polishing paste to gently buff away stains and plaque, leaving your teeth ultra-smooth and shiny. Since discoloration settles into the enamel of your teeth over time, this treatment helps slow yellowing while creating a glassy surface for better cleaning.
