Question by Karen S.: How much does it cost for a dental “deep cleaning” ?
Does anyone know what is the going rate that a dentist charges in Northern CA for deep cleaning? I do not have dental insurance. My dentist is located in the Bay Area. The total time spent was about 2.5 hours (2 sessions). Some x-rays were taken first. The dentist examined them. Determined that only deep cleaning is needed. The person who does the actual cleaning was the dental hygienist. I was charged $ 575 total. That seems a bit too high.

Answer by Hawkeyesrule
for a deep cleaning that seems right. As long as you continue to go back every 6 months you shouldn’t need another one.

Also, if they asked you to come bac kabout 6 weeks later so they can look at your gums, please do it. It is critical in order to chart the progress or healing of your gums.
