Routine Cleanings
Even if you brush, floss and rinse your mouth with mouthwash two times per day, you can benefit from a routine dental cleaning at our office. Our routine cleanings clean those hard to reach areas that you struggle to reach when cleaning your teeth.
Get a thorough cleaning performed with dental instruments you don’t have at home
Prevent halitosis and cavities
Periodontal Maintenance
Periodontal maintenance, also known as a deep cleaning, includes different components that are not a part of regular dental cleanings. Our root planning shapes the tooth root to eliminate debris and also reduce the chances of bacteria building up in the months ahead.

Deep Cleaning/SRP
Our deep cleanings clean away all the nasty calculus that your toothbrush, mouthwash and floss cannot clean. So don’t assume flossing and brushing is all that is necessary.
