Teeth Cleaning (Regular)
Regular professional teeth cleanings are the cornerstone of preventive dental care. At Ryerson Smile Boutique, our hygienists remove plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing can't reach, polish your enamel, and check for early signs of gum disease or decay. We recommend cleanings every six months to maintain optimal oral health.
What is it?
A regular professional teeth cleaning removes plaque, tartar, and surface stains from your teeth that cannot be eliminated by brushing and flossing alone.
How it works?
The hygienist uses hand tools and an ultrasonic scaler to remove buildup, then polishes teeth with a gritty paste to remove surface stains. A fluoride treatment may be applied for extra protection.
How it helps?
Regular cleanings prevent cavities and gum disease, freshen your breath, and allow for early detection of dental issues before they become costly problems.
