Dental Hygiene
& Cleanings

What is it?

During a pediatric teeth cleaning appointment, the dental hygienist will gently remove plaque and tartar buildup from your child's teeth using specialized instruments. They may also polish the teeth to remove surface stains and apply fluoride to strengthen enamel and prevent tooth decay.

Comfort and safety

Comfort and safety are central to modern dental hygiene and cleaning services, with many providers focusing on patient-centered,, low-anxiety, and technologically advanced care. 

Comfort-Focused Services

  • Techniques: Procedures often use Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) with Airflow® and Piezon® technology, which are designed for gentle, non-invasive removal of bacteria, stains, and tartar.

  • Environment: Clinics aim for a cozy, relaxing, and sometimes spa-like environment, often offering TVs or other amenities to help patients relax.

  • Patient Care: Services are often "guilt-free," with staff focusing on gentle, patient-centered care and educating patients rather than shaming them.

  • Options: Options for sensitive teeth, such as specialized instruments, desensitizing agents, or, in some cases, conscious sedation, are available. 

Frequently asked questions

When to Start Brushing?
Start brushing as soon as the first tooth appears, using a soft-bristled toothbrush. Before teeth, clean gums with a damp cloth.
