Dental Checkup & Teeth Cleaning in Kisumu

Full-mouth cleanings and regular checkups are essential for healthy teeth and gums. Even with good brushing and flossing at home, plaque and tartar still build up especially in hard-to-reach areas. Professional cleaning removes these deposits, preventing cavities, bad breath, and gum disease.

Dentists recommend twice-yearly cleanings and checkups for everyone, starting around age 3. These visits keep your mouth fresh and let us spot early signs of issues like gingivitis before they become a problem.

At Kisumu Smiles Dental Center (United Mall, Wing A, 1st Floor), we provide gentle, professional dental cleaning for the whole family clear explanations, calm visits, and care that fits your life.

Dental Checkup & Full Mouth Cleaning

A professional dental cleaning isn’t just about polishing your teeth it’s about keeping your entire mouth healthy.

Our dentists in Kisumu recommend a full mouth cleaning every six months, starting from the age of three. These visits allow us to:

  • Remove plaque and tartar build-up that brushing can’t reach

  • Detect early signs of gum disease or cavities

  • Keep your teeth whiter and your breath fresher

  • Guide you on the best brushing and flossing habits for home care

A regular checkup helps us catch small issues before they become big (and costly) ones saving your smile and your peace of mind.

Teeth Cleaning Explained

Learn what happens during a dental cleaning and the benefits it provides.

What Happens During Dental Cleaning

Our process is simple, gentle, and designed for comfort:
1️⃣ Oral Examination: We check your teeth and gums using a small mirror to spot tartar, cavities, or signs of gum inflammation.
2️⃣ Plaque & Tartar Removal: Using modern tools, we carefully remove plaque and tartar from your teeth and gum line.
3️⃣ Polishing: We polish your teeth to remove surface stains, leaving them smooth and shiny.
4️⃣ Flossing & Fluoride: We floss between your teeth and may apply fluoride for extra protection against decay.

The result? A cleaner, healthier mouth and a brighter smile that feels brand new.

Basic Cleaning vs. Deep Cleaning

There are two main types of dental cleaning and both serve an important purpose:

  • Basic Cleaning (Prophylaxis): A routine cleaning done to remove surface plaque and polish the teeth. Recommended every 6 months.

  • Deep Cleaning (Scaling & Root Planing): For patients with gum disease or heavy tartar buildup. It cleans under the gumline to stop infection and restore gum health.

Your dentist will let you know which cleaning is right for you based on your oral condition.
