MINT dentistry is proud to be the first practice in America to offer completely free teeth whitening for patients using PPO dental insurance. And there's no catch — we mean free. Period. If you have PPO dental insurance, MINT will make you complimentary custom trays and give you a supply of professional whitening gel. If worn every day for 3 – 4 hours, it can lighten your teeth up to seven shades in less than one week. To maintain your newly brightened smile, we'll give you whitening gel refills after each visit at our Temple Hills, MD dental practice and make you new mouth trays when needed.

The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends that everyone receive a thorough dental cleaning from a professional at least once every six months. Regular cleanings help prevent tooth decay by addressing plaque buildup, the leading cause of cavities. A dental cleaning also removes tartar and stain buildup on your enamel that can make your smile look darker. If you’d like to improve the look of your smile, keep your breath fresh, and keep your teeth and gums healthy, schedule an appointment for a cleaning for everyone in your family at MINT dentistry in Temple Hills, MD.

When you arrive for your cleaning at MINT dentistry, we'll first get you comfortable in one of our luxurious treatment massage chairs. You'll then be given a pair of our stylish MINT sunglasses to protect your eyes as a member of the MINT team begins removing tartar and plaque that has accumulated on your enamel. Cutting-edge dental equipment and modern techniques are used to eliminate tartar and plaque deposits without damaging the tooth or causing you discomfort. First, an ultrasonic tool that emits high-speed vibrations and a lubricating mist may be employed to gently dislodge larger debris. Then, a handscaling tool, such as a scaler or curette, will be needed to address smaller pieces of plaque. Each tooth will be individually attended to for thorough results. As soon as all of your teeth are clean, the enamel can be polished to reduce surface stains and brighten up your teeth. If requested or recommended, a fluoride treatment can be applied following the cleaning process.

Throughout your entire treatment, our team will strive to make sure you feel fully relaxed. With massage chairs, Beats headphones, and state-of-the-art dental tools, it will be such a posh experience that you'll probably forget we are a dental practice! Our stylish Temple Hills, MD dental practice was designed with our patients in mind, creating a modern, upscale feeling that allows you the ultimate comfort.

Routine teeth cleanings should be scheduled at least twice a year, assuming you have no other oral conditions that need more frequent cleaning. Throughout your visit to MINT dentistry in Temple Hills, MD, our team will help make sure you have a good at-home dental care routine by showing you the proper technique for brushing and flossing or suggesting products that can address your concerns. A MINT dentistry professional will also provide precise steps on how to get the best results from your whitening system so your teeth will be sexy all year long. A follow-up visit might be set up if treatment is required for a pressing problem. If there are no problems, MINT dentistry simply advises that you schedule cleanings twice a year.

Dental insurance policies will typically cover biannual cleanings, as they are considered a necessary procedure to maintain oral health.
