Dental cleaning
A cleaning every six months removes the tartar a toothbrush can't reach and is the cheapest way to avoid fillings, root canals and extractions later.
What the cleaning includes.
The cleaning uses ultrasonic scaling and polishing: it removes tartar and stains without touching the enamel. We use the same visit to check gums, cavities and bite, and if we find something small we tell you before it gets big.
It takes about 40 minutes. If you have a lot of tartar or bleeding gums you may feel some sensitivity for a day or two; it goes away on its own.
Book a cleaning if
- It's been more than six months since your last one
- Your gums bleed when you brush
- You notice tartar or stains on your teeth
- You wear braces or a retainer
- You're about to start a treatment and want a clean start

What we get asked most.
How much does a dental cleaning or a filling cost?
The price depends on each case: at your evaluation you get a clear, complete, no-obligation quote before any treatment starts. You can also ask us on WhatsApp at +504 3315-4258.
How often should I get a dental cleaning?
Every six months as a general rule; every three or four if you wear braces, your gums bleed or you smoke. A professional cleaning removes the tartar a toothbrush can no longer reach and is the cheapest way to avoid fillings, root canals and extractions. Book your cleaning online: it takes about 40 minutes and includes a check-up.
Does a dental cleaning hurt or damage the enamel?
No. The cleaning is done with ultrasonic scaling and polishing, and it only removes tartar and stains, never enamel. If you have a lot of tartar or inflamed gums you may feel some sensitivity for a day or two, which goes away on its own. If you are very sensitive, tell us when you arrive and we will go slower or use topical anesthetic.
