You can also use this type of appointment to discuss symptoms or concerns you\u2019re experiencing and to build a rapport with your dentist.<\/p>\n<h3>How often should I get a dental cleaning?<\/h3>\n<p>The American Dental Association recommends everyone have a professional dental cleaning once every six months. If you have a chronic condition like diabetes or suffer from periodontitis, more frequent cleanings may be necessary.<\/p>\n<p>Following an oral exam and review of your medical history, your RenovaSmiles provider can make recommendations for your individual situation.<\/p>\n<h3>What happens during a dental cleaning?<\/h3>\n<p>A routine dental cleaning includes multiple steps. Before starting your dental cleaning, your RenovaSmiles hygienist examines your entire mouth. They use a small mirror to check your teeth and gums for signs of inflammation or other potential concerns.<\/p>\n<p>Next, your hygienist uses a metal tool called a scaler to carefully remove plaque and tartar from the surfaces of your teeth and around your gum line.<\/p>\n<p>After your teeth are free of tartar, your hygienist brushes your teeth with a gritty toothpaste, followed by a professional flossing. Finally, your hygienist rinses your mouth and calls in the dentist.<\/p>\n<p>Your RenovaSmiles dentist checks for any cavities or other potential problems and asks questions about your dental habits. If necessary, your dentist might also order a series of digital X-rays.<\/p>\n<p>If everything looks good, you\u2019re sent home with a new toothbrush and dental floss. The team also sets up an appointment for another cleaning in six months.<\/p>\n<h3>How do I care for my teeth in-between dental cleanings?<\/h3>\n<p>In-between dental cleanings, it\u2019s important to practice good oral hygiene. This means brushing your teeth twice a day, flossing once each day, and avoiding habits like nail-biting and using tobacco.<\/p>\n<p>The team at RenovaSmiles also recommends eating a healthy, well-balanced diet. This means avoiding sugary beverages like soda or energy drinks and steering clear of snacks that can rot your teeth like candy.<\/p>\n<p>For a dental cleaning, make an appointment at RenovaSmiles today by calling the office nearest you or by clicking the online booking tool.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":168,"parent":52,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_mbp_gutenberg_autopost":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-167","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Dental Cleanings in Northern Virginia | RenovaSmiles<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Keep your smile healthy with professional dental cleanings at RenovaSmiles, serving patients at seven convenient Northern Virginia locations.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/renovasmiles.com\/es\/services\/dental-cleanings\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"es_ES\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Dental Cleanings in Northern Virginia | RenovaSmiles\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Keep your smile healthy with professional dental cleanings at RenovaSmiles, serving patients at seven convenient Northern Virginia locations.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/renovasmiles.com\/es\/services\/dental-cleanings\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Renova Smiles\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2026-05-13T13:20:15+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/renovasmiles.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Cleaning-P.webp\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1920\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"920\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/webp\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Tiempo de lectura\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"3 minutos\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/services\\\/dental-cleanings\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/services\\\/dental-cleanings\\\/\",\"name\":\"Dental Cleanings in Northern Virginia | RenovaSmiles\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/services\\\/dental-cleanings\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/services\\\/dental-cleanings\\\/#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2022\\\/08\\\/Cleaning-P.webp\",\"datePublished\":\"2022-08-09T16:44:05+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2026-05-13T13:20:15+00:00\",\"description\":\"Keep your smile healthy with professional dental cleanings at RenovaSmiles, serving patients at seven convenient Northern Virginia locations.\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/services\\\/dental-cleanings\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"es\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/services\\\/dental-cleanings\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"es\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/services\\\/dental-cleanings\\\/#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2022\\\/08\\\/Cleaning-P.webp\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2022\\\/08\\\/Cleaning-P.webp\",\"width\":1920,\"height\":920},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/services\\\/dental-cleanings\\\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Services\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/services\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":3,\"name\":\"Dental Cleanings\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/renovasmiles.com\\\/\",\"name\":\"RenovaSmiles\",\"description\":\"Family &amp;
