How often do you have the teeth cleaning?

I go to the dentist twice a year to get my teeth cleaned. I was also afraid before na dhated the sound of their cleaning equipment. But I found a dentist that is good with handling patients. She talks to me while she's cleaning my teeth so I'm kind of comfortable with her. I want to have good teeth so even if I'm annoyed with the cleaning equipment, I still go to the dentist. I don't want to wear dentures at an early age.

Hi I don't like to visit dentist. Infact i never visited till now. Recently i had tooth pain for unknown reasons not a toothache . But it was okay after one day so no problem. I hope such day never comes in my life to visit a dentist. But what is water pick i didn't hear about that.

You should have your teeth cleaned every 6 months. I don't like dentists and haven't been to one in years. I probably have 12 teeth left. Hope that you continue to take care of your teeth.

I don't just don't used to go to dentist to clean my teeth. I just make use of a brush and a tooth paste to brush my teeth twice a day, on morning and on night after my food. I think this is quite enough to keep your teeth clean.

I do visit my Dentist for consultation, but I only do this if I do have some extensive procedure that has to be done such as removing a wisdom tooth, or cleaning some darken parts. It depends on you if you want to consult to a dentist or not. After all, it’s your smile that has to be fixed.

It is advisable for us to visit our dentist twice a year for our cleaning but sometimes we can do it once a year depending on our time or base on the way we clean our teeth. Using floss is a great idea it really helps to maintain our teeth clean aside from brushing it three times a day. For me I prepare to have my teeth clean twice a year I think it is wise and keeps my breath fresh all year round.

In our country we call it 'seeing the hygienist'. The last time I went to the dentist, it was a new one I went to and I didn't like the woman, she was very cold, and when I tried to make conversation she didn't respond, after checking my teeth she said get an appointment with the hygienist, I asked the cost and was horrified! I said no I can't afford it, she just shrugged at me, I never rebooked for the hygienist and I never went back to see her again. I look after my teeth and see the need for teeth cleaning unnecessary and costly.

After a very long gap ( a few years actually), I went in for teeth cleaning a couple of months ago. It was looooong overdue and we had been talking about it but never got down to doing anything about it. There was always something to do which didn't give me time to take appointment, or I was lazy or hubby said later. Anyway, a couple of months ago, I went to one of my students' mother (she is a dentist) and finally got it done.

You are supposed to go every six months. One time I let 6 years go by and not go because of money. But when I finally went I had cavities. After having to pay for that (no dental insurance), I decided going every six months is cheaper than going only once in a while and then ending up having to pay alot for more work. Better get your teeth cleaned often then pay a whole lot more for work later. Also, if you are really afraid, they'll give you some gas to calm you down. I don't need it, but I've seen others take it. Also, scientists have linked bacteria found in the mouth to dementia. Just another reason to go to the dentist.

At least twice in a day

Youless, i only clean my teeth once a year since i don't have the time to do the cleaning. Besides that, i don't really like to walk into the dentist room as well. I don't really like to look at the dentist equipment since they look quite scary. Nowadays, i tried my best to brush and clean my teeth as often as i can. Like i brush my teeth twice a day. If i eat too much sweet food, then i would brush more frequently my teeth. It is very important to have a good sets of teeth.

I always have my teeth cleaned once in half a year. That should be enough to ensure my dental health is in good state. However, I must say that teeth cleaning with local dentist can be quite expensive. The one I went to normally costs me 20 dollars each time. I guess it is a cost that we have to pay for our teeth. Since having healthy teeth is very important in our lives, we have to take good care of it.

Actually I have never to do some teeth cleaning at all,firstly is because go to the dentist and do this is very expensive,secondly is I think it can be made by myself.

I have mine done here , every 3-4 months. As I drink alot of coffee here. Doesnt matter how often I brush. Coffee really stains. Merry xmas to you there. See ya here soon.....

It's good to clean the teeth especially Dental tartar or also called dental calculus is one of the causes that lead to your teeth will look yellow. Tartar also one of the factors causing tooth decay if left in a period of time. I also read that those trips to the doctor to clean teeth twice a year has a 24 percent lower risk for heart attack and 13 percent lower risk of stroke, compared with people who never clean the their teeth (to clean the dental tartar).
