Teeth Cleaning in Oxnard, CA
What is Professional Teeth Cleaning?
Professional teeth cleaning, or dental prophylaxis, is a preventive dental procedure that involves removing plaque, tartar, and stains from teeth. This process goes beyond regular brushing and flossing, reaching areas that are difficult to clean at home and removing hardened deposits that can lead to dental problems if left untreated.
