About Teeth Cleanings in Hammond, LA

Twice-yearly dental cleanings at MINT dentistry in Hammond, LA can help you show off a Hollywood smile. Completed with cutting-edge technology, a teeth cleaning (prophylaxis) addresses built-up plaque, tartar, and stains on your teeth to reveal a bright, healthy smile. When you visit for your treatment, one of our MINT dental professionals will give you advice on how to brush and floss at home and discuss any teeth that may benefit from extra attention. Since MINT dentistry is committed to giving you beautiful, sexy teeth throughout the year, you will receive complimentary home whitening treatments at your first cleaning. For all other appointments, we will provide you with additional whitening gel so you can keep up your bright smile. To schedule your next dental cleaning and start showing off healthy, sexy teeth, contact MINT dentistry in Hammond, LA.

Free Whitening

MINT dentistry was proudly the first practice in the country to offer free whitening for patients using PPO dental insurance. By totally free, we mean free. Period. If you have PPO dental insurance, we will make you free custom dental trays and provide you with a supply of professional whitening gel. If used nightly for several hours, it can brighten your teeth as much as seven shades in 4 – 5 days. To maintain your sexy, new smile, MINT dentistry will send you home with whitening gel refills after each visit at our Hammond, LA dental office and make you new dental trays when needed.

How Often Should I Get My Teeth Cleaned?

It is recommended by the American Dental Association (ADA) that everyone receive an in-depth dental prophylaxis (cleaning) a minimum of every six months. A teeth cleaning can minimize your risk of cavities since plaque that has built up on the enamel, which is the main cause of decay, is addressed. A dental cleaning also addresses tartar and stain buildup on your teeth that make your smile dull. If you’d like to improve the look of your teeth, keep your breath fresh, and maintain your oral health, schedule an appointment for a teeth cleaning for your whole family at MINT dentistry in Hammond, LA.

What Happens During a Dental Cleaning?

To begin your professional teeth cleaning, you will be invited to relax in one of our massaging treatment chairs. Our team will give you a pair of our cool MINT sunglasses to shield your eyes as an experienced member of the MINT team will begin addressing the plaque and tartar that has accumulated on your teeth. Cutting-edge dental equipment and modern techniques are used at MINT dentistry to remove tartar and plaque accumulation without damaging your enamel or causing you distress. First, an ultrasonic tool that emits high-speed vibrations and a lubricating mist will be employed to carefully work away larger debris. Next, a detailing instrument, such as a curette or scaler, will be needed to remove smaller pieces of buildup. Each tooth will be attended to for optimal cleanliness. As soon as your teeth are clean, your enamel will be carefully polished to minimize stains and brighten up your teeth. If needed or requested, a professional fluoride treatment can be done once your teeth are clean and polished.

During your entire visit, we will strive to make sure you are relaxed and comfortable. With massage chairs, Beats headphones, and advanced dental tools, we create such a luxurious experience, you'll probably forget we are a dental practice! Our stylish Hammond, LA dental office was thoughtfully designed with you in mind, creating an upscale, modern environment for your best experience during every appointment to MINT dentistry.

After Your Dental Cleaning

Unless there is an active oral condition that necessitates more frequent cleaning visits, a preventive teeth cleaning is generally performed every six months. Throughout your treatment at MINT dentistry in Hammond, LA, we will help you create a good at-home oral care regimen by showing you the proper technique for brushing and flossing or recommending products that can help you with your specific needs. We will also provide precise steps on how to get the best results from your home whitening gel and custom mouth trays so your smile will be fabulous all year long. Another visit may be scheduled if a treatment is required for an urgent concern. If there are no problems, we suggest that you schedule twice-yearly dental cleanings.

The MINT Commitment

The cost of your professional dental cleaning should be covered by your dental insurance as it is a preventive treatment. MINT dentistry will contact your insurer to confirm your coverage and then bill you for any out-of-pocket costs. If you don't have insurance, please ask a team member about the MINT Discount Plan. This gives you the same pricing we give to those with PPO insurance on procedures, plus we do not charge you for exams and x-rays. We are dedicated to giving everyone an upscale smile they can be proud of. Our team works hard to help every patient in Hammond, LA get professional dental care, no matter their age or circumstances.
