Teeth cleaning

My recent visits to two dentists encountered a new problem that I have never knew.  To clean periodontal pouch.  At age 72, I have 15 teeth.  A dentist offer to clean them for $2,000, another for $1,200 and clean them once every 3 month for a total of $4,800 a year.  I have never cleaned periodontal pouch for 72 years because my previous dentists never raise the question.   Is this something new? What health benefit can I expect to start cleaning periodontal pouch starting at age 72 for the rest of my life?
