We use ultrasonic cleaning at Main Street Dental Center in Marble Falls because we feel it is a superior way to clean teeth and keep them healthy. In addition, manually scaling your teeth, we use a device that vibrates at an extremely high frequency for effective and delicate cleaning of your teeth. The pulsating movements cause plaque and tartar to fall off your teeth and then we rinse them away with a water tip directly attached to the scaler.

Our ultrasonic cleaning device also helps to eliminate tartar and a hard, calcified type of tartar called calculus. Before ultrasonic cleaning became mainstream, dentists had to scrape plaque and tartar manually. This method is not only harder on the hygienist’s hands and body, it also requires more time spent in the chair for our patients. At Main Street Dental Center, we like to use a combination of both methods to achieve efficient, comfortable cleanings with the best results for our patients.

Patients who have put off dental cleanings will be happy to know that they’re now easy and painless. Please contact us at (830)-798-0844 to schedule your next appointment.
