What is FMOP?


FMOP or "Full Mouth Oral Prophylaxis" is a dental procedure that involves a thorough cleaning of the teeth and gums, typically performed by a dental hygienist or dentist.

During an FMOP procedure, the dental professional will use specialised instruments to remove plaque, tartar, and other debris from the teeth and gums. This includes cleaning between the teeth and along the gumline. The dental professional may also polish the teeth to remove any remaining stains and smooth the tooth surfaces.

FMOP is typically recommended for patients who have not had a professional cleaning in a while or who have an excessive buildup of plaque and tartar on their teeth. It can help prevent and treat gum disease, cavities, and other dental problems. FMOP is usually performed as part of a routine dental check-up and is an important part of maintaining good oral health.
