Most people don’t get too excited about their teeth cleaning Marco Island appointments. They don’t feel comfortable sitting helplessly on the chair with the dentist prodding away using tools that are making strange noises. To help ease your stress, check out what you can expect in your upcoming appointment.
The dental hygienist checks your entire mouth using a small mirror to look for signs of inflammation and other dental issues. When certain problems are detected, the dentist decides if it’s fine to go on with the procedure.
Using a scaler and a small mirror, the dental hygienist removes all traces of plaque and tartar in between the teeth and also around the gum line. You should hear scraping sounds while this is being performed.
Next, a high-powered electric brush and gritty toothpaste will be used to remove the tartar that may have been left behind from the scaler. The gritty toothpaste comes in a variety of flavors and it works to thoroughly scrub your teeth. This deep cleaning process will make a grinding noise.
When dental professionals do the flossing, they get way deep between your teeth in order to identify trouble spots that may bleed easily and to remove plaque or toothpaste that may have been left behind from the deep cleaning process.
In most cases, a rinse with liquid fluoride will be given to you so that you can rinse out any debris.
This protects your teeth from cavities for several months. They may ask you to choose the flavor before they place the sticky paste or foamy gel into a mouthpiece that perfectly fits your teeth for a full minute. With a small brush, fluoride varnish will be painted onto your teeth.
