hello,
sensitivity after teeth cleaning procedure is normal. you can ask the dentist for a sensitive toothpaste using which, the sensitivity will go away within a week. also, get your cleaning done in a number of sittings rather than in one sitting. this will too reduce the sensitivity.

Sensitivity and mobility are temporary side effects. Doctor will prescribe you a desensitizing toothpaste and gum medication to apply.

Yes , mild sensitivity could be there, it depends upon how clean your tooth is. More clean your tooth already is- less sensitive.
More dirt already, means more cleaning, more chance of having sensitivity!
