How long does a dental cleaning take?

Sandpiper Dental is here for all of your oral health needs, and we pride ourselves in providing exceptional preventive dentistry in Jacksonville, FL. Part of preventive dental care starts with you and your commitment to excellent oral hygiene.

However, it doesn’t stop there. Your dentist, Dr. Kim Doan, is also here to help you along the way so you can attain your healthiest smile. 

Efficient Dental Cleanings for Your Smile

We offer many preventive dentistry services at Sandpiper Dental, including dental cleanings. On average, a dental cleaning can take 30 minutes to 60 minutes.

However, this depends significantly on the patient’s bill of health. If we notice anything amiss, the appointment may take longer to address the area of concern. Professional dental cleaning may not take as long for patients who practice excellent oral hygiene at home. 

What Happens During a Dental Cleaning 

During a typical dental cleaning, we use specialized instruments to remove all signs of plaque and tartar from the tooth surfaces, between teeth, and along the gumline. We also offer fluoride treatment for patients who would like extra help preventing cavities. Finally, we polish the teeth so they continue to repel bacteria and look radiant and beautiful. 

Whether you are an avid brusher and flosser, or it’s been a while since your last visit, our team at Sandpiper Dental is here to help care for your smile. 

Call us today to schedule your next cleaning.
