A member asked:

Will having my teeth cleaned cause a fever and chills?

Dr. Theodore Davantzis answered

Specializes in Dentistry

Not likely: A dental cleaning is a non-invasive procedure. Sounds like you may be getting sick, and it is probably a coincidence that you are feeling this way after your cleaning. See your physician.. You may have caught a virus. Feel better soon.
