Free Whitening

MINT dentistry is proud to say that we were the first dental practice in America to offer free teeth whitening with PPO dental insurance. And there's no catch, we mean free. If you have PPO dental insurance, our practice will make you complimentary custom trays and provide you with a professional-strength whitening gel. When used daily for 3 – 4 hours, it can whiten your smile up to seven shades in 4 – 5 days. To refresh your sexy, new smile, MINT dentistry will give you whitening gel refills after your next cleaning appointment at our Louisville, KY dental practice and replace your dental trays when needed.

How Often Should I Get My Teeth Cleaned?

The American Dental Association (ADA) recommends that every individual should have a professional dental cleaning performed twice a year. A teeth cleaning helps to prevent cavities by removing the leading cause of cavities, plaque buildup. Dental cleanings also address tartar and stain buildup on your enamel, which can make your smile yellow. If you’d like to improve the look of your smile, keep your breath fresh, and maintain your oral health, book an appointment for a teeth cleaning for your whole family at our practice in Louisville, KY.

What Happens During a Dental Cleaning?

Your dental cleaning will begin with you relaxing in one of our massaging treatment chairs. Our team will give you a pair of our signature MINT sunglasses to shield your eyes as a member of our dentistry team begins to work on the tartar and plaque that has built up on your enamel. Cutting-edge dental equipment and modern techniques are used to remove tartar and plaque buildup without harming your enamel or causing you discomfort. To start, an ultrasonic device that works through water mist and high-speed vibrations will be used to clear away larger plaque and tartar deposits gently. Next, a handheld tool, such as a scaler or curette, will be needed to remove the remaining tartar and plaque. Every tooth will be treated for thorough results. When your teeth are clean, your enamel will be polished to reduce stains and brighten your teeth. If requested or recommended, a professional fluoride treatment can be performed once your teeth are clean and polished.

Our team will strive to ensure you feel fully relaxed during dental cleaning. From massaging treatment chairs to Beats headphones and advanced dental tools, visits to MINT dentistry are such a fantastic experience you'll probably forget we are a dental practice! Our stylish Louisville, KY dental practice was thoughtfully designed with you in mind, creating an upscale, modern vibe for your best experience during every appointment to MINT dentistry.

After Your Dental Cleaning

Professional teeth cleanings should be performed every six months unless dental cleanings need to be performed more frequently due to an oral health condition. During your cleaning at MINT dentistry in Louisville, KY, we can help ensure you have a better at-home oral care regimen by demonstrating the proper technique for brushing and flossing or recommending products that can address your specific needs. A team member will also provide precise steps on how to use your home whitening gel and custom mouth trays, so your smile will be gorgeous and fabulous. A follow-up appointment may be scheduled if a treatment is recommended for a pressing issue. Otherwise, MINT dentistry simply recommends that you schedule cleanings twice a year.

The MINT Commitment

Dental insurance generally covers the costs of professional dental cleanings, as it is considered a preventive treatment. MINT dentistry will speak to your insurance company to determine your coverage before we bill you for any remaining expenses. If you do not have dental insurance, please ask us for more information on the MINT Discount Plan. This gives you PPO dental pricing on cleanings, and we do not charge you for digital x-rays or your annual exam.
