Keep your smile bright and your oral health strong with professional dental cleanings in Chattanooga. Our caring team makes preventive care simple, effective, and comfortable.
Restore and Protect Your Smile’s Health
Routine dental cleanings are the foundation of lifelong oral health. Even with great brushing and flossing habits, plaque and tartar can build up in hard-to-reach areas. Professional cleanings remove these deposits, prevent gum disease, and keep your smile looking its best. When paired with regular exams, cleanings also give us the opportunity to spot early warning signs of cavities, gum disease, and even oral cancer—so we can act quickly and effectively.
Fresh, Confident Smile
Cleanings remove surface stains and buildup, leaving your teeth brighter and your breath fresher. You’ll walk out of our office feeling renewed and ready to smile.
Prevent Tooth Decay
By clearing away plaque and tartar, we lower your risk of cavities before they start. Preventive care saves you time, money, and discomfort down the road.
Protect Your Gums
Regular cleanings help prevent gingivitis and gum disease, which are the leading causes of adult tooth loss. Healthy gums mean a healthier foundation for your teeth.

What to Expect
Comprehensive Exam
We start with a careful look at your teeth and gums to check for cavities, gum inflammation, or early warning signs of other oral health concerns.
Plaque and Tartar Removal
Our hygienist gently removes buildup from the surfaces of your teeth and along the gumline, targeting areas that brushing and flossing can’t reach.
Polishing and Flossing
We polish your teeth to remove surface stains and smooth enamel. Then we floss between every tooth for a truly fresh, complete clean.
Personalized Guidance
At the end of your visit, we’ll review your home care routine, answer questions, and recommend any next steps to keep your smile healthy between appointments.
FAQs

Most patients benefit from cleanings every six months. If you have gum disease, orthodontic appliances, or higher risk factors, we may recommend more frequent visits to protect your oral health.
Cleanings are typically painless. If your teeth or gums are sensitive, let us know—we can use numbing gel or adjust our techniques to keep you comfortable.
Skipping cleanings allows plaque and tartar to build up, which can cause gum disease, cavities, and even tooth loss. Over time, untreated dental issues can affect your overall health and may require more complex and costly treatment.
Most insurance plans cover preventive services like cleanings twice a year. For patients without insurance, we offer affordable options to make care accessible.
