How often can I get a dental cleaning?

At Metlife Dental, we recommend you receive a dental cleaning every six months. Regular dental cleanings are crucial for the maintenance of optimal oral health. These cleanings help prevent plaque buildup, tartar formation, and gum disease. During each appointment, our skilled dental professionals will thoroughly clean your teeth, ensuring all surface stains and bacteria are removed. Moreover, these cleanings provide an opportunity for early detection of any dental issues or abnormalities, allowing for prompt treatment. While biannual cleanings are typically appropriate for most individuals, it is essential to consult with your dentist to determine an appropriate cleaning frequency based on your specific oral health needs. Remember, investing in regular dental cleanings is an investment in your long-term oral well-being.
