What Is Teeth and Gum Cleaning?

Teeth and gum cleaning, also called professional dental cleaning or prophylaxis, is a preventive dental procedure designed to remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria that regular brushing and flossing cannot eliminate. It helps maintain healthy teeth and gums, prevents cavities, gum disease, and bad breath, and supports overall oral health.

At Skin House, our dental specialists provide gentle, thorough, and effective cleaning to keep your smile healthy and radiant.
