Led by Dr. Mateen Sheikh, our independent, family-owned practice on N Florida Ave has earned a 5.0-star Google rating from more than 210 patients who value our unhurried, comfortable approach. Whether it has been six months or several years since your last visit, our team helps you get back on track and keep your smile healthy.
A professional dental cleaning, sometimes called a prophylaxis, removes the plaque and hardened tartar that build up along the gumline and between teeth areas a toothbrush and floss cannot fully reach on their own. Even with excellent home care, some buildup is normal over time, which is why the ADA’s MouthHealthy resource recommends regular dental visits as part of a healthy routine.
Routine cleanings do more than freshen your smile. By clearing away buildup, they help reduce the risk of cavities and gum inflammation before small problems have a chance to grow. The CDC’s oral health resources note that good oral hygiene supports overall health, and consistent cleanings are a key part of keeping your gums and teeth in good shape.
A typical cleaning is a good fit for most patients who are due for their regular checkup. If our team notices signs of gum disease or heavier buildup, we will talk with you about whether a deeper cleaning may be more appropriate before recommending next steps.
