Looking for a Dentist in Surrey?

Many people don’t like seeing a dentist. The odd noises, occasional jaw discomfort, and poking could be some of the reasons behind it. However, knowing and understanding the cleaning procedure can help you have a stress-free dental experience.

If you are looking for a dentist in Surrey, trust our team at New Smile Dental Group for all your dental needs. We offer the right solutions to provide the right dental service.

Let’s understand the teeth-cleaning process in a step-by-step manner

1. Examine Your Mouth 

Before the cleaning starts, we will thoroughly check your mouth. This process is done using a small mirror to examine your teeth, gums, and entire mouth. The primary purpose of this step is to check for signs of inflammation, tooth decay, or any other dental issues. During this, if we find a problem, it is first thoroughly verified and we do testing to resolve it.

2. Scaling

The next step involves removing the tartar from your gumline and teeth. For this, our dentists will use a dental scaler and a small mirror to check it. If you have a lot of tartar build-up in your mouth, it may require longer to scrape the plaque areas as tartar build-up can take some time to remove depending on its severity and the surface area it covers in your mouth.

3. Deep Cleaning and Polishing 

Once your mouth is free from tartar, our dentist will brush your teeth with an electric toothbrush to ensure there is no remaining tartar in your teeth.

Then we use a toothpaste called prophylaxis. The toothpaste has a grainy consistency, which polishes your teeth. This unique paste tastes and smells just like your ordinary toothpaste. Not only this, you can choose a preferred flavour as per your paste. 

4. Professional Flossing 

Our dentist will then floss your teeth and remove residual paste and plaque. In this step, he may also talk about the areas of concern you should pay more attention to. 

5. Rinsing 

Rinsing your mouth with spray water or a solution is an important step. A rinsing solution may consist of liquid fluoride which can quickly rinse your mouth. 

6. Fluoride Treatment 

Fluoride treatment is the last step that protects your teeth from cavities until your next visit with the dentist. For this part of the treatment, a mouthpiece is used and fits over your teeth. Further, a foamy gel or a sticky paste is used on your teeth, and let it sit there for a few minutes.
