Teeth Cleaning San Francisco

Frequent cleanings

Professional dental cleanings, performed by our hygienists. A Gentry Dentistry appointment for teeth cleaning in San Francisco will include a dental exam, and the following:

• Removal of tartar: tartar, or calculus is hardened plaque that has been left on the tooth for some time and is now attached to the tooth surface. Tartar forms above and below the gum line and can only be removed with special dental instruments.

• Removal of plaque: plaque is a sticky film that forms on the teeth. Plaque is formed by living bacteria, food debris. The bacteria produces toxins that inflame the gums, and cause cavities. This inflammation is the start of periodontal disease which can be prevented with regular teeth cleaning. San Francisco-based Gentry Dentistry’s staff is highly trained in plaque removal.

• Teeth polishing: This procedure involves removing stains and plaque that is not otherwise removed during tooth brushing and scaling.

Digital x-rays

Dental radiographs (x-rays) are essential, preventative, diagnostic tools that provide valuable information not visible during a regular dental exam. Our highly trained staff use the information to accurately detect hidden dental abnormalities such as gum disease and complete an accurate treatment plan. Without x-rays, problem areas may go undetected. Dental X-rays may reveal conditions such as:

• Abscesses or cysts

• Bone loss

• Tooth decay and decay between teeth

• Problems inside a tooth or below the gum line

• Tooth brushing, at least twice a day, especially at night.

• Flossing daily is the best way to clean between the teeth and under the gum line. Flossing not only helps clean these spaces, it removes plaque build up, preventing damage to the gums, teeth, and bone. Flossing is also important in preventing heart disease and Alzheimer’s disease.

• Rinsing is important to do after brushing, and also after meals if you are unable to brush.

We also offer a prescription toothpaste with a high concentration of fluoride to help prevent recurrent cavities around existing fillings and crowns.  There are many personal options that can help your teeth last longer and shine their brightest and we're always available for consultation.
