Whether you live minutes away or drive in for dependable dental care, our goal is the same: protect your smile today and support your overall health for years to come.

Why Dental Cleanings and Regular Checkups Matter

Your teeth and gums are surprisingly active places. Throughout the day, food debris, sugars, and harmful bacteria mix to form plaque. This soft layer quickly hardens into tartar, especially around the gum line, where even the best toothbrush or flossing routine can’t always reach. Without professional teeth cleaning, this plaque buildup leads to inflammation, bad breath, early tooth decay, and eventually periodontal disease or tooth loss.

That’s why regular checkups and professional dental cleaning appointments every six months are essential. These regular dental cleanings significantly reduce the risk of long-term health issues, prevent avoidable treatments, and support better dental health at every stage of life.

What Happens During a Dental Cleaning at Aurora Sky Dental

Every cleaning appointment at Aurora Sky Dental is performed with precision and comfort in mind. Our experienced dental hygienist guides you through each step so there are no surprises. Here’s what to expect:

1. Gentle Scaling to Remove Plaque and Tartar

Using a specialized scaler, your hygienist removes hardened tartar and sticky buildup that sits above and below the gum line. This step is one of the most important parts of a professional teeth cleaning, because tartar cannot be removed with at-home brushing or flossing.

 2. Deep Teeth Cleaning and Polishing

Next, we use a polishing tool to smooth and brighten your enamel. This removes minor stains, eliminates leftover debris, and slows future buildup by creating a surface that plaque has a harder time sticking to. It’s one of the reasons teeth cleaning is one of the most noticeable parts of your visit, your smile looks and feels cleaner immediately.

3. Flossing and At-Home Care Review

Your hygienist completes the cleaning with a full flossing pass and offers personalized suggestions for improving your oral hygiene routine at home. This may include switching toothbrush types, adjusting technique, or recommending tools that make cleaning easier for both kids and adults.

4. Fluoride Treatment (As Needed)

For patients prone to cavities, including children, teens, and adults with enamel wear, a fluoride treatment is applied to strengthen enamel and prevent tooth decay. It’s quick, effective, and helps reduce future dental concerns.

Your Dental Checkup With Dr. Ravi Patel: Preventive Care You Can Trust

After your cleaning, Dr. Ravi Patel completes a full dental exam to monitor your long-term oral health and catch problems early, before they grow into bigger issues. Each checkup includes:

Oral Cancer Screening

An essential part of your visit. We provide full oral cancer and oral cancer screening checks because early detection is critical.

Gum Disease and Periodontal Health Evaluation

We measure gum pockets, check for inflammation, and assess any signs of early gum disease or periodontal disease beneath the surface.

Cavity and Filling Assessment

Dr. Patel checks for signs of tooth decay, evaluates existing fillings, and confirms they’re sealed and functioning properly.

Dental X-Rays When Needed

Routine or diagnostic x-rays help us monitor bone levels, detect hidden infection, or identify early structural issues before symptoms show.

We know that visiting the dentist isn’t everyone’s favourite thing, especially for kids. That’s why we focus on:

  • Explaining every step in simple terms

How Often Should You Schedule Dental Cleanings and Checkups?

Most patients benefit from dental cleaning and checkup appointments every six months. However, some, especially those with a history of gum disease, rapid tartar accumulation, orthodontic appliances, or chronic health issues, may benefit from more frequent visits.

If you’re unsure, schedule a checkup and let Dr. Ravi Patel personalize a plan based on:

  • Your gum health
  • Your history of tooth decay
  • Levels of plaque and tartar buildup
  • Risk factors for dental problems
  • Your at-home care routine
  • Your overall oral health goals

This personalized approach is why even patients from Fort Qu’Appelle or farther east choose to maintain their preventive routines with us as part of their broader health care.
