Teeth Cleaning in Cairns
Helping You Maintain a Radiant Smile
Regular teeth cleaning plays an important role in maintaining oral health. At Cairns Precision Dental Group, we provide thorough teeth cleaning to help prevent plaque buildup and detect early signs of dental concerns. Professional cleaning removes tartar that brushing and flossing alone cannot reach, contributing to healthier teeth and gums. Routine check-ups support overall wellbeing and help reduce the likelihood of more complex dental treatments in the future.
Teeth cleaning is more than just a cosmetic benefit—it helps maintain strong teeth and healthy gums. Early detection of dental issues allows for more conservative treatments, which can reduce the need for extensive procedures. Our team also provides guidance on effective at-home care, ensuring you get the most out of your daily brushing and flossing routine. Regular cleaning supports fresh breath and a confident smile.

Providing Thorough Teeth Cleaning in Cairns
Our Teeth Cleaning Protocol
We individually tailor preventative treatment for our patients. Tailoring can be re-assessed as our patient’s circumstances change over time. This can be achieved by all of our patients by following our protocol:
- Six-monthly check-ups.
- Regular visits to the dental hygienist, including fluoride application, oral hygiene instruction and dietary advice to help maintain a healthy mouth.
- Annual x-rays, taken to check in between teeth and around existing restorations, where it can be difficult to diagnose visually.
- X-rays, taken to check any pre-existing treatment to the nerves of the teeth, and possibly to gain a better understanding of the facial structures.
- An explanation of dental treatment and options available, with an approximate longevity indication, so patients can make an informed decision.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is professional teeth cleaning important?
Professional teeth cleaning helps remove plaque and tartar that regular brushing and flossing may not reach. This process supports overall oral health by reducing the risk of gum disease and decay. It also allows for early detection of potential dental issues, helping to maintain long-term oral hygiene. Regular cleanings contribute to fresher breath and a cleaner smile while promoting healthier gums and teeth. Good oral care habits combined with routine cleanings can help maintain dental health.
Can professional teeth cleaning help with bad breath?
Professional teeth cleaning removes plaque, tartar, and bacteria that contribute to persistent bad breath. Food particles and buildup in hard-to-reach areas can cause odours, and a thorough cleaning helps reduce this issue. Gum disease, another common cause of bad breath, can also be addressed with regular cleanings. Maintaining good oral hygiene between visits by brushing and flossing can further support fresher breath and overall oral health.
Can professional teeth cleaning prevent cavities?
Professional teeth cleaning helps reduce the risk of cavities by removing plaque and tartar buildup. Plaque contains bacteria that produce acids, which can weaken enamel and lead to decay over time. Cleaning treatments, along with fluoride application when recommended, help protect teeth from potential damage. Regular dental visits combined with daily brushing and flossing contribute to better cavity prevention and long-term oral health.
