Dental Cleanings at Dentiland

Dentiland, in Tijuana MX, understands that the foundation for a beautiful smile and a long-lasting one begins with good oral hygiene. Regular professional cleanings are essential to maintaining good oral hygiene. Our team, led by Dr. Licon, an experienced dentist, provides cleanings that are tailored to meet your individual needs. We can help you maintain healthy teeth and gums, whether it's a routine cleaning for your teeth or a deeper one due to gum diseases.

Why is Regular Dental Cleanings Important?

Professional dental cleanings remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria that may not be completely removed by daily brushing or flossing. Plaque can become tartar over time. This substance can only be removed professionally. Regular cleanings can help to prevent dental problems such as bad breath, cavities, and gum disease. Dr. Licon can also detect any early signs before the condition becomes more serious.


Key Benefits Of Professional Cleaning:

  • Prevent Cavities

    Cleanings can prevent cavities from developing by removing plaque, tartar, and other buildups. Without professional cleaning, these buildups can result in more expensive and invasive treatment later.

  • Reducing the Risk of Gum Disease

    Gum disease is a leading cause of tooth loss. Regular cleanings keep your gums healthy and help prevent infection.

  • Promotes Health

    Poor oral hygiene has been linked with severe health issues, such as heart disease, respiratory problems, and diabetes. Maintaining a healthy mouth can improve your overall health.

  • Enhances the Appearance Your Teeth

    Cleanings remove surface stains, leaving your teeth brighter and fresher. This will boost your confidence in your smile.

  • Freshens Breath

    Regular cleanings can help to eliminate bacteria that cause bad breath.

The Professional Cleaning Process at Dentiland

Dentiland strives to offer every patient a pleasant and efficient dental cleaning experience. Here is a brief overview of your cleaning.

  • Stability

    Dentures that are traditionally supported by the remaining teeth and gums can slip and cause discomfort. Implant-supported dentures, on the other hand, are firmly anchored in the jawbone and provide greater stability and functionality.

  • Comfort

    Implant dentures are more comfortable to wear, since they're fixed in place without the need for adhesives. Dentures that are traditional may need to be adjusted periodically in order to stay comfortable and secure.

  • Bone Health

    Implant dentures are a great way to preserve the density of your jawbone by stimulating it. Traditional dentures, on the other hand, do not offer this benefit and may eventually lead to jawbone loss.

  • Maintenance

    Dentures that are made of traditional materials require cleaning every few weeks and adjustments on occasion to ensure a comfortable fit. Implant-supported dentures are easier to maintain once the implants have been placed and are built to last many years if properly cared for.

  • Cost

    Due to the necessity of surgery and implant placement, dentures with implants are usually more expensive. Many patients are convinced that the benefits of implant-supported dentures outweigh their initial costs.

How Often Should You Get a Cleaning?

The American Dental Association suggests you see your dentist at least twice yearly for a dental cleaning. Your cleaning schedule will vary depending on your needs.


  • Standard Clean: Most patients should get professional cleanings every six months to prevent plaque buildup and tartar.
  • Deep cleaning: Dr. Licon might recommend a more frequent or deeper cleaning if you suffer from gum disease. This treatment, called scaling and planing, involves cleaning beneath the gumline to reduce inflammation and tartar.


Dr. Licon will recommend more frequent cleanings to maintain oral health if you have a history of gum disease.

Maintaining Oral Hygiene Between Cleanings

It's important to keep up with good oral hygiene, even if you don't have a professional cleaning. Here are some tips for keeping your teeth and gums healthy in between Dentiland visits:

It is recommended that you brush your teeth twice daily, once in the morning and again before you go to bed. Use a toothbrush with soft bristles and replace it at least every three to four months.

Flossing is a great way to remove plaque and food particles between teeth, which your toothbrush cannot reach. It is important to floss at least once daily to maintain healthy gums.

Sugar contributes to plaque buildup, which can lead to cavities and gum disease. Limit your intake of sugary drinks and snacks to maintain good oral health.

Water is a great way to wash away bacteria and food particles, reduce plaque, and keep your mouth hydrated.

An antimicrobial mouthwash can kill bacteria and help you to freshen up your breath.

The Importance of Gum Health

Although cleanings primarily focus on teeth, gum health plays an equally important role in oral health. Untreated gum disease can cause tooth loss and even serious health issues. Dr. Licon assesses the health of your gingiva during your dental cleaning. Gum disease can be detected by:


  • Red or swollen gums
  • Bleeding after brushing or flossing
  • Bad breath that persists


If Dr. Licon finds any signs of gum disease, she will discuss with you the best treatment options, including more frequent cleanings, better at-home care, or other therapeutic options.

How Cleanings Contribute to Preventive Care

Dental cleanings form an important part of preventive health care. Early treatment of plaque and tartar can help prevent the development of more serious dental problems like gum disease and cavities. Preventive dental care can help you keep a healthy, beautiful smile while avoiding costly and invasive procedures. Dr. Licon can also identify and address early signs of dental problems before they worsen.
