What is a Routine Dental Checkup and Cleaning?
A routine dental checkup and cleaning (also called prophylaxis or scaling and polishing) is a preventive dental procedure designed to maintain optimal oral health and catch problems before they become serious. During this comprehensive visit, your dentist examines your teeth, gums, tongue, and oral tissues for signs of decay, gum disease, or other issues, while a dental hygienist removes hardened plaque (tartar) and surface stains that regular brushing can't eliminate.
Why is a Routine Dental Checkup and Cleaning Necessary?
Most people don't realize that many dental problems develop silently without causing pain or visible symptoms until they've progressed to serious stages. Small cavities, early gum disease, and even oral cancer can exist in your mouth for months without you noticing any discomfort. By the time you experience tooth pain, the problem often requires more invasive and costly treatments like root canals, crowns, or extractions.

Common Questions About Dental Checkups and Cleanings
The American Dental Association and Vietnamese dental professionals recommend checkups and cleanings every six months for most patients. However, if you have a history of gum disease, wear braces, are a heavy smoker, or drink a lot of coffee and tea, your dentist may recommend more frequent cleanings every 3-4 months. Patients with excellent oral health and minimal plaque buildup may only need annual cleanings, though six-monthly visits remain the gold standard for prevention.
