Oral Prophylaxis​

Keep Your Smile Bright & Healthy

Oral Prophylaxis

Oral Prophylaxis (often called professional teeth cleaning) is a preventive dental procedure that helps maintain oral hygiene and prevent gum disease, tooth decay, and bad breath.

Keep Your Smile Bright & Healthy

Oral prophylaxis is a professional cleaning procedure performed by a dentist or dental hygienist to remove plaque, tartar, and stains from your teeth. Even with regular brushing and flossing, certain areas in your mouth are hard to reach — that’s where professional cleaning becomes essential.

Why It’s Important

✅ Prevents gum disease (gingivitis and periodontitis)
✅ Removes plaque and tartar buildup
✅ Helps maintain fresh breath
✅ Prevents tooth decay
✅ Keeps your smile brighter and healthier

The Procedure Includes

  1. Scaling – Removes tartar and plaque from tooth surfaces and below the gumline.

  2. Polishing – Smoothens teeth to prevent new plaque buildup and enhance shine.

  3. Fluoride Treatment (optional) – Strengthens teeth and prevents cavities.

Recommended Frequency

Every 6 months (or as advised by your dentist) to maintain optimal oral health.
