How often should you get your teeth cleaned?
Most patients should have a professional teeth cleaning every six months to remove plaque and tartar, prevent cavities, and keep gums healthy. However, some people may need more frequent cleanings if they have gum disease, heavy buildup, or certain medical conditions. During your visit at MDRN MUSE Dental Aesthetics in Chattanooga, TN, we evaluate your oral health and recommend a cleaning schedule that keeps your smile healthy, bright, and easy to maintain long-term.
The Benefits of a Professional Teeth Cleaning
Removes Plaque & Tartar
Even with great brushing and flossing, plaque can harden into tartar in areas that are difficult to reach at home. A professional teeth cleaning removes this buildup to help prevent cavities, gum disease, and long-term damage to your teeth and gums.
Keeps Your Gums Healthy
Routine teeth cleanings help reduce inflammation and bacteria that lead to gingivitis and periodontal disease. Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile, and regular cleanings help keep them firm, comfortable, and disease-free.
Keeps Your Smile Bright
Professional cleanings gently polish away surface stains from coffee, wine, and everyday life while leaving your mouth feeling fresh. Patients often notice smoother teeth, fresher breath, and a naturally brighter smile after each visit.

Our professional teeth cleaning options
This is the standard six-month cleaning most patients receive to keep teeth and gums healthy. It removes plaque, tartar, and surface stains while helping prevent cavities and gum disease. Regular cleanings are the foundation of long-term oral health and a bright smile.
This type of cleaning is for patients with a history of gum disease who need more frequent visits to keep bacteria under control. Typically completed every 3–4 months, periodontal maintenance helps prevent the return or progression of gum disease and supports long-term gum stability.
A full mouth debridement is recommended when there is a heavy buildup of tartar that makes it difficult to properly evaluate gum health. This cleaning focuses on removing large amounts of buildup so your dentist and hygienist can clearly assess your teeth and gums and determine the next best step for treatment.
A deep cleaning is performed when gum disease is present and bacteria have built up below the gumline. This treatment involves carefully cleaning beneath the gums and smoothing the tooth roots to remove bacteria and tartar, allowing the gums to heal and reattach more securely to the teeth.

Most routine teeth cleaning appointments take about 45 minutes to an hour. If it has been a while since your last visit or there is heavier buildup, your appointment may take a little longer to ensure a thorough and comfortable cleaning.
Many dental insurance plans cover routine teeth cleanings as part of preventive care, often at 100%. Coverage can vary depending on your plan, so our team at MDRN MUSE Dental Aesthetics can review your benefits and help you understand what is included before your visit.
For most patients, professional teeth cleanings are comfortable and gentle. You may feel slight pressure or mild sensitivity in certain areas, especially if there is inflammation or buildup, but our team focuses on making the experience as easy and relaxing as possible.
A professional cleaning removes surface stains caused by coffee, tea, wine, and everyday life, which can make your smile look brighter. While it does not change the natural shade of your teeth like whitening treatments do, many patients notice a cleaner, more polished smile afterward.
Skipping routine cleanings allows plaque and tartar to build up, which can lead to cavities, bad breath, gum disease, and more costly dental issues over time. Regular visits help catch small problems early and keep your oral health on track.
