While you may be brushing and flossing your teeth routinely at home, it is still important to get a professional dental cleaning at Junée F. Gardy DDS, PA twice a year.

Gardy the ability to check for any issues in your mouth that may need additional treatment. Having a professional cleaning helps maintain your oral health so schedule an appointment for yourself at our Naples, FL office.
What Are the Benefits of a Professional Dental Cleaning?
Our Naples, FL patients who get routine oral cleanings can expect to enjoy several advantages following their appointment, such as:
- The option to add fluoride treatment for stronger, healthier teeth
- Early detection and prevention of concerns like cavities before they become more serious
- Reduction of plaque buildup and debris
- Improved overall dental health and a brighter smile
How Do Dental Cleanings Work?
Your cleaning will start by using medical-grade tools to address the tartar and plaque buildup on your teeth, which can be difficult to remove at home, no matter how often you brush and floss. Then, an ultrasonic device will loosen the bigger chunks of tartar and plaque with high-speed vibrations and a lubricating mist. Next, handheld instruments, like a scaler or curette, will clean off the remaining pieces. Each tooth will be treated individually, and after your teeth have been cleaned, your enamel will be polished to strengthen it and remove stains. If requested, a professional fluoride treatment can be done following the cleaning.

Dental Cleaning FAQs
How often do I need to have my teeth cleaned?
Generally speaking, most adults and children are encouraged to visit their dentist's office twice per year for routine exams and dental cleanings. This can vary from person to person, however, based on individual factors such as any underlying dental/oral conditions the patient may have and others. Following each cleaning or exam, Dr. Gardy will recommend the most appropriate time to schedule your next appointment.
Will my dental cleaning hurt?
We understand that many patients have anxiety about getting their teeth cleaned due to potential discomfort, bleeding gums, or a prior experience that may have been painful. Our caring team is dedicated to ensuring your comfort throughout the dental cleaning process and will take cues from you, listening to any concerns you may have or discomfort you may be feeling and making adjustments as necessary. When performed properly by one of our experienced providers, dental cleanings are generally not considered uncomfortable. Don't hesitate to ask Dr. Gardy about additional options that can help you to relax for your cleaning.
Do I still need to get my teeth cleaned if I have dental restorations?
Yes, patients with crowns, bridges, dentures, veneers, dental implants, and other dental restorations should still get their teeth cleaned twice per year, or as recommended by Dr. Gardy. Infections, gum disease, and other issues can still develop between and around the dental restorations, making professional cleanings critical for all patients.
