Cleanings in Indianapolis and Fishers, IN

Following the patient's dental examination with our team of general and cosmetic dentists—Dr. Matthew Martin, Dr. Stephanie Martin, Dr. Lynn Marshall, or Dr. Lindsey Garrison—at our offices in Fishers, IN, or Indianapolis, IN, they will undergo a comprehensive dental cleaning and polishing session administered by one of our skilled hygienists.

During the cleaning procedure, the hygienist meticulously removes plaque and tartar buildup from the teeth, ensuring optimal oral health.

Following the removal of plaque and tartar, the hygienist proceeds to polish the teeth, effectively eliminating stains and preserving their brightness and whiteness. Patients can expect their smiles to feel refreshed and rejuvenated after this thorough cleaning and polishing process.
