Maintain Your Oral Health With Help From Our Team
Our experienced dentist provides quality preventive care as part of our commitment to your overall oral health. To help maintain your healthiest and happiest smile, Dr. Ouellette recommends that you visit Dream Dental Services twice a year for regular dental exams and teeth cleaning in Altamonte Springs, FL, and the Orlando and Casselberry, FL, areas.
Enjoy Your 5-Star Dental Exam at Dream Dental Services
As part of your regular oral health exam, our registered dental hygienist will perform a professional dental cleaning. This cleaning will remove tartar and plaque from your teeth both above and below your gum line. Even the most careful at-home brushing and flossing methods don’t fully clean the tartar and plaque off your teeth. However, our special dental instruments can get rid of anything that stubbornly clings to your smile. In addition, our complete dental cleaning also includes thorough teeth polishing to remove any residual stains or plaque.
Our Process
Once your teeth have been cleaned and polished, Dr. Ouellette will perform a thorough dental exam to ensure that you go home free of any underlying dental concerns. Your exam will address the following:
Digital X-Rays
If necessary, we will take dental x-rays to find decay, tumors, cysts, and bone loss.
Oral Cancer Screening
We check your face, neck, lips, tongue, throat, tissues, and gums for any signs of oral cancer.
Gum Health Screening
The gums and bone around your teeth will be examined for any signs of periodontal (gum) disease.
Check for Tooth Decay
We test the surfaces of all your teeth to ensure that no decay or cavities are forming.
Examine Existing Restorations
If you already have any fillings, crowns, or other dental restorations, we evaluate each of these to confirm that they are still in strong shape.
After you have a clean bill of dental health, don’t forget to continue your valuable at-home brushing and flossing regimen.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I get a professional dental cleaning?
Most patients should schedule a professional cleaning every six months. However, those with gum disease, a history of cavities, or certain medical conditions may need cleanings every three to four months to maintain optimal oral health.
What happens during a professional dental cleaning at Dream Dental Services?
During your cleaning, a dental hygienist removes plaque and tartar buildup from the surfaces and between your teeth, polishes enamel, flosses between each tooth, and performs an oral health evaluation to flag any concerns for the dentist to review.
Is a dental cleaning painful?
For most patients, a professional cleaning is comfortable and painless. If you have sensitive teeth or significant tartar buildup, you may experience mild sensitivity. Our team will work to ensure you are comfortable throughout the entire visit.
Can a cleaning help prevent gum disease?
Yes. Regular professional cleanings remove the bacteria-laden plaque and tartar that cause gum inflammation and periodontal disease. Paired with good at-home brushing and flossing, routine cleanings are one of the most effective ways to prevent gum disease.
Will a cleaning whiten my teeth?
A professional cleaning removes surface stains from coffee, tea, and food, which can brighten your smile noticeably. However, for significant whitening, a dedicated teeth whitening treatment would be recommended.
Do you offer cleanings for children as well as adults?
Yes, Dream Dental Services provides cleanings for patients of all ages. Early preventive care in children helps establish healthy habits and catch any developing dental issues before they become more complex problems.
