Dental Prophylaxis
Maintaining good oral hygiene is essential for a healthy smile and overall well-being. At J A Aneja Multispeciality Dental Centre, we offer professional dental prophylaxis to prevent oral diseases and keep your teeth in optimal condition.
Dental prophylaxis is a preventive dental procedure that involves a thorough cleaning of the teeth and gums to remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria that can lead to cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. It is an essential part of maintaining long-term oral health.
