Professional Teeth Cleanings in Hialeah & Miami Gardens

Professional Teeth Cleanings in Hialeah & Miami Gardens

Regular professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing cannot reach — protecting your teeth and gums from disease.

Even with excellent home care, plaque can harden into tartar that only a dental professional can remove. Professional teeth cleanings at Cool Smilez Family Dentistry go beyond what your toothbrush can do — removing buildup, polishing your teeth, and helping prevent cavities and gum disease. Most patients need cleanings every 6 months; some need them more frequently.

What Happens During a Professional Cleaning

  • Removal of plaque and tartar (calculus) from all tooth surfaces
  • Cleaning between teeth and along the gumline
  • Polishing to remove surface stains
  • Flossing between all teeth
  • Fluoride treatment (optional)
  • Review of home care techniques

Types of Cleanings We Offer

  • Prophylaxis (routine cleaning) — for patients with healthy gums
  • Scaling and root planing (deep cleaning) — for patients with gum disease
  • Periodontal maintenance — for patients who have been treated for gum disease

Why Regular Cleanings Matter

Gum disease is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults. Regular cleanings remove the bacteria that cause gum disease before it progresses. Cleanings also give us the opportunity to catch cavities and other problems early.

Insurance Coverage

Most dental insurance plans cover two cleanings per year at 100%. We accept Medicaid and most major PPO dental plans.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I get my teeth cleaned?
Most patients benefit from cleanings every 6 months. Patients with gum disease may need cleanings every 3-4 months.
Do teeth cleanings hurt?
Routine cleanings are generally comfortable. If you have sensitive gums or significant buildup, there may be some mild discomfort. We can apply topical anesthetic if needed.
What is the difference between a regular cleaning and a deep cleaning?
A regular cleaning (prophylaxis) is for patients with healthy gums. A deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) is for patients with gum disease and involves cleaning below the gumline.
Do you accept Medicaid for cleanings?
Yes. We accept Florida Medicaid at both our Hialeah and Miami Gardens locations.
