A dental cleaning is typically a painless procedure because there is no cutting or injecting involved. In some cases a deep teeth cleaning can be uncomfortable, but it shouldn’t be painful. You dentist will give you a local anesthetic, either in the form of a gel or an injection, so you shouldn’t feel any pain during the procedure.

There is very low risk from a single dental x-ray image

The dentist will check for any abnormal signs or concerns with your teeth and gums, and signs of oral cancer. The dentist will confirm what they think and begin to offer recommendations as part of a treatment plan.

Gingivitis is early stage gum disease. It happens when plaque and bacteria build up on your teeth. Common symptoms include red, swollen, bleeding gums.

Receding gums are a condition in which your gums pull back from the tooth surface, exposing the root surfaces of your teeth. It is a form of gum disease.

Getting a root canal is relatively painless and extremely effective. You'll be back to smiling, biting and chewing with ease in no time. Saving the natural tooth with root canal treatment has many advantages.

A filling is used to treat a small hole, or cavity, in a tooth. To repair a cavity, a dentist removes the decayed tooth tissue and then fills the space with a filling material.

Implant surgery is considered a safe and predictable procedure, with success rates of up to 98% in healthy patients.

Daily flossing will remove impacted food and bacteria. It reduces the risk of developing cavities, and gum disease.

Before pulling the tooth, your dentist will give you an injection of a local anesthetic to numb the area where the tooth will be removed.If the tooth is impacted, the dentist will cut away gum and bone tissue that cover the tooth and then, using forceps, grasp the tooth and gently rock it back and forth to loosen it from the jaw bone and ligaments that hold it in place. Sometimes, a hard-to-pull tooth must be removed in pieces.

Entry-level medical aid plans usually pay for dental costs from members’ savings, whereas top-tier plans may cover the expenses from medical aid benefits. Schemes may pay for anything from basic dentistry all the way to specialised procedures, but even basic plans usually cover routine procedures such as fillings, extractions, x-rays, scaling and polishing, root canal treatment and standard plastic dentures. Benefits are typically limited if you’ve opted for a basic plan, and pre-authorisation is required.

Long lapses between cleanings typically lead to excessive build-up of plaque that will need to be addressed during the cleaning, which may contribute to the longer appointment time.

Expect some slight discomfort during the cleaning, and possibly some bleeding of the gums, especially if you haven’t been diligent with flossing.
