Haven’t had a cleaning in a while? You’re not alone. Many people avoid the dentist because they’re unsure what to expect. At Chuks Dental Clinic, we make cleanings gentle, thorough, and stress-free.

Here’s what a typical dental cleaning visit looks like:

🪥 1. Warm Welcome & Medical Review

We begin by reviewing your health history, medications, and any dental concerns. This helps us tailor your care.

🧼 2. Plaque & Tartar Removal (Scaling)

Using special tools, we gently remove plaque (soft buildup) and tartar (hardened plaque) from your teeth, especially around the gum line.

✨ 3. Professional Polishing

Next, we polish your teeth using a high-powered brush and gritty toothpaste to remove surface stains and leave your teeth feeling smooth and clean.

🧵 4. Flossing & Rinse

We floss between your teeth and may offer a fluoride rinse or varnish for extra protection.

👩‍⚕️ 5. Dental Exam

Your dentist checks for signs of decay, gum disease, or any abnormalities. If needed, X-rays may be taken to look beneath the surface.

⏱ The Whole Visit Takes About 45 Minutes to 1 Hour

Don’t worry if it’s been a while—we’re here to help, not judge. The goal is to refresh your smile and catch issues early before they become problems.

Bonus Tip: Schedule cleanings every 6 months for the best results.
