Dental hygienists at the Dublin Metro Dental perform thorough dental cleanings, as well as educate you how to maintain a healthy teeth and smile. Comfortable treatment rooms, exceptional care and knowledgeable staff are just a few reasons why patients choose us. Your dental cleaning appointment will include:
- Tartar Removal – Calculus, or tartar, is hardened plaque that has firmly attached to the tooth surface. Calculus forms above and below the gum line and must be removed by a dental hygienist.
- Plaque Removal – Plaque is a sticky, almost invisible film that forms on your teeth. It’s a growing colony of living bacteria, food debris and saliva. If not periodically removed, the bacteria produce toxins that infect and inflame the gums – the warning signs of periodontal disease.
- Teeth Polishing – This removes stains and plaque that are not eliminated during tooth brushing.
- Home Care Instructions – You’ll leave each dental visit with clear, easy-to-follow instructions to enhance the care of your teeth and smile. And if that’s not enough, you receive a complimentary tooth brush!
