Illume Dental’s standard teeth cleaning treatment is disease prevention cleaning. During one of these visits, plaque and tartar are meticulously removed from the surfaces of the teeth, which are then polished. The clinic recommends scheduling these visits every six months to reduce the incidences of cavities and gum diseases.
For patients needing a more rigorous cleaning, Illume Dental’s next option is the root planing and scaling treatment. This treatment targets both the teeth and gums and is meant to smoothen, or plane, the root surfaces, preventing further plaque and tartar from building up. Occasionally, antimicrobial agents are used for extra protection, and even less frequently, local anesthesia may be required.
Illume Dental’s third teeth cleaning option—full mouth debridement—is reserved for severe cases of thick or dense deposits on the teeth and gums. Specialized instruments, such as ultrasonic devices, are usually brought in to help break down heavy plaque and tartar accumulations. Typically, full mouth debridement is performed as a precursor to other treatments.
The primary goals of Illume Dental’s teeth cleaning treatments are to improve oral health and enhance the appearance of smiles. However, their routine teeth cleaning services have also been proven to reduce diseases (both oral and general), augment other dental work such as fillings and crowns, and improve overall comfort and wellness.
“A radiant smile is more than just an aesthetic asset—it’s a testament to your overall well-being,” said a spokesperson for the practice. “At Illume Dental, we understand the importance of a pristine and healthy smile. Our specialized teeth cleaning services are tailored to eradicate plaque, tartar, and staining, leaving you with a refreshingly clean mouth and an enviable gleam.”
