No....not even a deep cleaning. If your dentist told you so....go somewhere else! Their either a quack or trying to take advantage of you!

No. It should be a minor procedure and not painful unless your gums are in bad shape or you have cavities.

Some people require anesthesia in the form of nitrous oxide or local injection into the gum tissue when they get their teeth cleaned. If it makes the procedure more comfortable for the patient, then it should be done.
If you are referring to general anesthesia where you are asleep, then no. The only time this may occur is when you are having gum surgery and the dental specialist has an anesthesiologist on staff.

Depends on the tooth cleaner. Usually not unless they are very rough.
