Why professional cleans matter
Brushing and flossing at home cannot always reach every area, such as behind the back teeth and just below the gumline. Plaque and tartar left there can contribute to decay, gum disease and bad breath. Professional cleans, usually about every six months or as your dentist recommends, help keep these areas clean.
What is usually included
- Comprehensive check-up
- Scale and clean
- Polish
- Fluoride application
- X-rays if clinically needed
What affects the fee?
- Whether X-rays are needed, and which type.
- How much cleaning is required.
- Whether a deeper clean for gum disease is recommended, which may be done over more than one visit.
Health funds
Many extras policies contribute to check-ups and cleans, subject to limits and waiting periods. Depending on your cover, you may have little or no out-of-pocket cost.
