What happens later at home?

Proper preventative care including brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits can help keep the gums and teeth disease free for a lifetime. Common sense dietary habits, such as limiting the quantity of sugary and starchy foods consumed, are also important to good dental health.

What are the potential complications after the procedure?

There are no complications from regular dental care. Sometimes, the gums may be sore for a while after a dental cleaning. However, the long-term benefits of removing the remnants of plaque and tartar are worth any minor discomfort.
