Prophylactic Cleaning

Prophylactic cleaning is the routine cleaning that is performed every three to six months to prevent periodontal disease. A few patients will need more cleanings for preventive measures, and a few will need cleanings only once a year. The cleanings are completed by our wonderful hygienist in one hour appointment slots. The prophylactic cleanings include:

1. A dense review of the patient’s medical history and measurement of your blood pressure.
2. An oral cancer screening and examination of teeth and gums
3. Ultrasonic scaling of all teeth, followed by manual scaling. The teeth are then polished by fluoridated pumice for perfect and smooth service.
4. Lastly, a concentrated fluoride rinse is given for topical application at no extra charge.

The fee for the prophylactic cleaning is $145.

If necessary, Dr. Zadeh will combine this treatment with other periodontal therapies to help ensure the best results for your oral health.
