It is important to get teeth cleaning done every six months.

Dental Prophylaxis – commonly called a “prophy” is a treatment that involves polishing the teeth to control bacteria on the teeth and just beneath the gum line.

A prophy is typically performed twice per year to maintain healthy teeth and gums.

These visits are short and gentle on the pocket and are less traumatic for the child.

Tooth polishing is a painless dental procedure, and some patients enjoy it. The dentist uses a small & soft rubber cup and polishing paste.

This procedure helps in making the surface of the tooth smoother which prevents the bacteria in the mouth to adhere to the tooth hence prevents cavity formation.

At Vasupujya Pediatric Dental Clinic we always want the child’s visit to fun instead of scary. Bringing the child to the dentist regularly will help the child to gradually be more comfortable in a dental set up and will also make him value dental hygiene from a young age.
