What to Expect During Your Dental Cleaning 

Unsure about what happens at a dental cleaning? Here’s a quick breakdown of what you can expect during your visit to our Littleton office:

  1. Examination

A hygienist will begin by examining your teeth and gums to assess your oral health. 

  1. Plaque and Tartar Removal

Using special tools, we’ll meticulously remove any plaque or tartar build-up, even from hard-to-reach areas. 

  1. Deep Cleaning and Polishing

We’ll polish your teeth to remove surface stains and leave your smile feeling fresh and smooth. 

  1. Fluoride Treatment (Optional)

For added protection against cavities, fluoride may be applied to strengthen your teeth. 

How Long Does a Dental Cleaning Take? 

Most cleanings take 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the condition of your teeth. We’ll keep you informed at every step, ensuring a pleasant and stress-free experience. 

Benefits of Regular Dental Cleanings 

Routine dental cleanings are about more than just aesthetics. Here’s why making them a priority is vital for your oral and overall health:

  • Prevent Cavities and Gum Disease

Professional cleaning removes plaque build-up that can lead to tooth decay and gingivitis. 

  • Fresher Breath

Say goodbye to bad breath caused by bacteria lingering in your mouth. 

  • Brighter Smile

Polishing eliminates surface stains, leaving you with a noticeably whiter smile. 

  • Early Detection of Issues

Your hygienist and dentist can identify potential problems like tooth decay or gum disease before they become serious. 

  • Save Money

Preventative care costs far less than restorative treatments for cavities, root canals, or gum disease down the road. 

How Often Should You Get a Dental Cleaning? 

The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends visiting your dentist for professional cleanings every six months. However, individuals with conditions like gum disease may require more frequent care. After assessing your oral health, Dr. Vogl will recommend a schedule tailored to your specific needs. 

Dental Cleaning Costs and Insurance 

At Rocky View, we believe everyone deserves access to exceptional oral care. That’s why we offer specials, accept most major insurance plans, and provide financing options or membership plans for uninsured patients.

Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Cleanings 

Does a dental cleaning hurt? 

Most cleanings are entirely pain-free. You might feel minor pressure during tartar removal, but our experts take care to make the process as comfortable as possible. 

What’s the difference between regular and deep cleanings? 

Regular cleanings focus on the visible areas of your teeth and gumline, whereas deep cleanings (scaling and root planing) target bacteria and tartar below the gumline to treat gum disease. 

Can I eat after a cleaning? 

Yes, you can eat immediately after unless fluoride was applied. If fluoride treatment is included, wait at least 30 minutes before eating or drinking.

See Why Our Patients Love Us!

I have been going to Rocky View Dental for around 7 years now. The staff is always very friendly and efficient, with wait times non existent. Dr Vogl is very personable and honest. I can’t say enough about my hygienist, Karissa. Karissa has been my hygienist for several years and she is a true professional. She’s amazingly gentle and thorough, and a pleasure to talk to as well.

I have been going to Rocky View Dental for a year now and love the entire team. They do not tell you that you need unnecessary work done like other dentists that I have been to. The staff that does the cleanings are always great, no one is stabbing me with whatever tools they use. They are always friendly, and I am not anxious when I am there. I highly recommend checking them out if you are looking for a new dentistry.

We credit Rocky View Dental Care with having great staff all the way around - but we're especially fond of Karissa! She listens, cares and remembers...and is consistently great with reluctant patients. My family of four visits this office and our experience has always included: timely appointments, ease of scheduling, clean office, & quality of care. We found this practice via a referral from a friend ~ and don't hesitate to recommend it to others.

I highly recommend Rocky View Dental. I have had 2 dental emergencies in the past 3 weeks. The first one I stopped by the office to schedule an appointment. They took me back immediately and fixed my tooth. The second time I contacted them late one evening and they scheduled me the next morning. The office is beautiful, comfortable and the staff are amazing. A very positive experience!!! Thank you Rocky View Dental!!!

I'm 44 and never had my wisdom teeth pulled when I was younger. I've had dentists tell me my whole life to get them out or I'll regret it some day. I ended up going to Rocky View and I'm so happy I did. Walt had the procedure completed in less that 45 minutes and I was on my way. It wasn't fun, but I followed the instructions they gave me and now I'm fully recovered and so glad I chose Walt and his team at Rocky View.
