Report
A professional teeth cleaning is done by the hygienist at a dentist's office. The hygienist uses tools to remove tartar from your teeth - both above and below where the gum meets the tooth. Teeth cleanings are good practice in preventing diseases in the rest of the body like heart disease, dementia, and complications of diabetes.
