A dental cleaning will not unblock a salivary gland obstruction. Regarding a somewhat loose tooth, a decrease in inflammation may help, and certainly keeping the area super clean will give that tooth a little more longevity.

You have a salivary stone in gland which needs to be removed by an oral surgeon. A deep cleaning is for patients who have gum[periodontal disease] problems. Your loose tooth is from poor oral hygiene and may have to be extracted if the deep cleaning doesn't help. Practice good oral hygiene after your deep cleaning.

No & perhaps. Blocked salivary gland needs services of an Oral Surgeon to unclog. Loose tooth usually means bone loss. If deep cleanings do not help you would be best served by seeing bone/gum specialist, a Periodontist, to evaluate prognosis.
