A Fresh Start for a Healthier Smile

Dental Cleaning in Newark, NJ

Professional dental cleanings remove plaque, tartar, and buildup that daily brushing can’t—helping prevent decay, gum disease, and other oral health problems.

What to Expect During Your Dental Cleaning

1

Plaque & Tartar Removal

Using ultrasonic scalers and hand instruments, we gently remove plaque and hardened tartar from the surface of your teeth and just below the gumline. This step is essential in preventing gum disease, inflammation, and cavities that can form in hard-to-reach areas.

2

Polishing & Stain Removal

Once buildup is removed, we polish your teeth with a high-powered brush and professional-grade paste. This eliminates surface stains from coffee, tea, or tobacco and leaves your enamel smooth and shiny—making it harder for new plaque to stick.

3

Gum Health & Fluoride Protection

We assess your gum tissue for any signs of irritation or disease and provide tips for home care. When appropriate, we apply fluoride varnish to help strengthen enamel and prevent decay, offering long-lasting protection between cleanings.
