Personalized Preventive Dental Cleanings Designed Around Your Preferences
Routine professional dental cleanings play an essential role in maintaining healthy teeth and gums. During many cleanings, a polishing paste—known as prophy paste—is used to remove surface stains and polish the teeth after plaque and tartar have been removed.
For patients who prefer to avoid fluoride-containing products, Serenity Advanced Dentistry offers fluoride-free prophy paste as part of our personalized, holistic approach to preventive dental care.

What Is Prophy Paste?
Prophy paste is a mildly abrasive polishing material used during professional dental cleanings.
After plaque and tartar have been removed, the paste helps:
- Polish tooth surfaces
- Remove minor surface stains
- Create a smooth finish
- Leave teeth feeling clean and refreshed
Different formulations are available to accommodate individual patient preferences and clinical needs.
What Is Fluoride-Free Prophy Paste?
Fluoride-free prophy paste performs the same polishing function as traditional prophy paste but does not contain added fluoride.
Many patients request fluoride-free products because of personal preferences or as part of their holistic wellness philosophy.
Our team is happy to discuss available options before your dental cleaning begins.
