Most patients benefit from cleanings at least every six months. Some patients need more frequent visits based on gum health or buildup.
02 Do cleanings hurt?
Routine cleanings are generally comfortable. If you have sensitivity or anxiety, tell the hygienist so the visit can be paced accordingly.
03 Why do I still get tartar if I brush and floss?
Some areas are difficult to keep completely clean at home, and plaque can harden into tartar that needs professional removal.
