Dental cleanings and exams are crucial to maintaining a healthy mouth and smile. Our dentists offer this preventive care to help you avoid dental problems. This ensures that any developing issues are diagnosed and treated as quickly as possible.

Dental cleanings and exams are two of the most basic yet important preventive treatments we provide at our office. Each time you visit our dental practice for a checkup, we will provide professional teeth cleaning and dental exams to help your smile stay healthy. During your cleaning and exam, our dental team will:

  • Clean your teeth by removing any plaque or tartar (also called dental calculus), which can lead to tooth decay and periodontal disease
  • Floss and polish your teeth for a healthy, bright smile
  • Examine your smile for signs of any damaging dental conditions or diseases

We may utilize dental X-rays to further evaluate your smile and make certain that you receive the dental care you need. This is a reason regular dental cleanings and exams are essential in maintaining good oral health. These allow us to prevent cavities and gum disease, making sure that any damaging conditions are treated as early as possible.

We recommend that you visit us every six months for a routine dental cleaning and exam. Our staff may also suggest more frequent visits if needed. We also encourage you to contact us if you suffer from a dental emergency, pain, or injury. To schedule your next appointment, we invite you to contact us today. We look forward to caring for your smile!
