How Often Should You Get Professional Teeth Cleaning?

Assuming you regularly brush and floss your teeth, dentists and dental hygienists recommend routine deep cleaning two times a year. During this cleaning, we remove plaque and bacteria that can cause tooth decay and gum disease.

If you never brush or floss, then it would be wise to visit us for a cleaning 2-3 times a year for optimal oral hygiene.

Not just tooth decay and gum disease, coming in 2 times a year allows the dentist and hygienists o evaluate any other issue going on in your mouth through x-rays and to make sure they treat it before it gets worse.

Burlington Family Dental Centre is committed to offering excellent dental care to our valued patients looking for professional dental cleaning services.

We are open 6 days a week with a range of times for your convenience.

Can't say enough good things about Dr. Emma and her team. The whole team is super friendly and really good with kids — they explain things in a fun, easy way so nobody's scared which is a big deal for our anxious kids.

If you're looking for a family dentist who actually cares, this is it!

I was visiting Hamilton and had a dental emergency. This is the practice my friend loves and they saw me right away. I ended up needing an extraction and Dr. D’Souza and her hygienist, Mark, took such good care of me. They were so encouraging, professional, and kind. I especially liked how clearly they explained what they were doing and gave me directions for after care. It was a challenging procedure and Dr. D’Souza was very skilled and supportive! I was lucky to be in her care!

Complete series of eras to check all my teeth, done carefully and respectfully by Mark.  The receptionist was able to decifer how to send in my bill to my new insurance company with no problem.  Dr. De Sousa welcomed me and thoroughly explained the results of all the tests, and which areas would need some work.  A very thorough initial new patient screening!!

Our 86-year-old mother had a dental emergency and required two tooth extractions. We called Burlington Family Dental Centre, and from the very first phone call we knew we were in good hands.
Jayati, the administrator, was absolutely wonderful. She immediately made us feel that my mom would receive great care and attention. She gathered all the necessary information ahead of time, so when we arrived an hour later everything was already prepared for us, including estimates and paperwork. She was incredibly kind, patient, helpful, and compassionate with both our mom and us.
Then we met Mark, the dental assistant, who was exceptionally attentive, caring, and professional. He thoroughly explained the procedure, detailed all aftercare instructions, prepared an aftercare package, and made my mom feel calm, comfortable, and reassured throughout the entire visit.
Dr. Chen was outstanding. She carefully explained all available options and helped us make a truly informed decision. The extractions were performed quickly, smoothly, and very professionally. My mom didn't experience any discomfort during the procedure, which was such a relief for all of us.
Our overall experience was amazing. It was an incredible relief to find such a compassionate and professional team who were able to help our elderly mother so promptly during an urgent situation.
We are deeply grateful and highly recommend Burlington Family Dental Centre to anyone needing immediate dental care. Truly a 5-star experience!
  
 
  
 
 
 
 
    
 
 

Qualified and Experienced Hygienists

Dental cleaning at Burlington Family Dental Centre is performed by qualified hygienists who use industry leading equipment to meet patients’ oral hygiene needs.

Your caring dental hygienist will start by examining your mouth before proceeding to clean teeth using an ultra-sonic scaler along with other professional instruments that ensure built up tartar, plaque and calculus are removed. Hardened deposits are also broken down and washed off during the process.

The patient benefits from this procedure with a well maintained smile that's healthy and clean.

The Importance of Dental X-rays

In order to provide proper oral care, x-rays are important as part of typical treatment. X-rays allow our dentists to examine your mouth for signs of gum disease, tooth decay, bone loss, and other complications that may not be apparent by the superficial examination of the teeth and gums.

For children and teens, a dental x-ray may be necessary to observe how their teeth are developing and to identify any potential future problems. At Burlington Family Dental Centre, we use appropriate protective equipment in order to carry out x-rays diagnostics safely.

What's Involved in a Dental Cleaning?

Dental cleanings consist of scaling and polishing mostly. It takes about 45 minutes (also referred to as 3 units) for the average person. However, if they have neglected their teeth for a while, more scaling or soft tissue management may be recommended. Sometimes we need to do a bit of flossing in between teeth. Usually, we incorporate a dental exam in with one of your cleanings every year to measure pocket size, x-rays, tooth stability, gum health, teeth grinding, wear and tear, occlusion (your bite) and so on.

How Much Does Teeth Cleaning in Burlington Cost?

Burlington Family Dental Centre offers all new patients affordable teeth cleaning services for only $199 for a limited time. Additional cleaning maybe needed depending on how much plaque is on your teeth and how long it's been since your last visit to a dental clinic. This includes teeth cleaning and polishing performed by our experienced dentists and dental hygienists.
