Get Teeth Cleaning Services From the Dental Experts Serving Minooka, IL
Our services are like spring cleaning for your mouth.
The Importance of Regular, Professional Teeth Cleanings
Even if you’re diligent about brushing your teeth twice daily and flossing before you go to bed, you still need to visit your dentist for teeth cleaning every six to 12 months. After all, you wouldn’t limit your housekeeping to daily surface cleaning. Every now and then, you probably spend time decluttering your living areas, moving furniture, and thoroughly cleaning to ensure that your home is healthy and spotless.
At a top-notch family dental clinic like Lakota Dental, your hygienist will deliver prophylaxis—or preventative—services that go beyond your at-home tooth cleaning routine, including:
-
• Thorough removal of tartar and plaque buildup
• Teeth polishing to scrub away stains without damaging the enamel
• Fluoride treatment to help prevent tooth decay
Additionally, routine visits to your dentist should include checkups that can identify signs that you may be at risk for gum disease, tooth loss, or even oral cancer. If you live in the Minooka, Illinois, area, you’re only a short drive away from the friendly experts at Lakota Dental. We’d be delighted to provide teeth cleaning and other dental services for your whole family.
Offering a Full Slate of Dental Cleaning Services
In addition to routine teeth cleaning services designed to prevent dental problems, Lakota Dental offers deep dental cleaning, also known as scaling and planing. Unlike prophylaxis, which addresses teeth at and above the gumline, deep dental cleanings aim to remove bacteria and plaque below the gumline. This service is typically recommended for patients who have advanced gum disease (periodontitis) or a high risk for tooth loss.
At Lakota Dental, we take pride in offering a broad array of high-quality dental services—including metal-free fillings, sealants, and periodontal therapy—in a welcoming environment that’s fully equipped with state-of-the-art equipment. What’s more, our family dentist, Dr. Mike Lakota, has over 25 years of experience serving both children and adults.
