Our dentists and team are proud to provide preventive care to help you maintain optimal oral health and a beautiful smile. Among the preventive services we offer are dental cleanings and exams. This routine care is a cornerstone of maintaining your dental wellbeing, and receiving these treatments regularly is an important part of safeguarding your smile against potential oral health issues.
Your treatment begins with a comprehensive cleaning session, where our dental hygienist meticulously removes plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth. This step is crucial, as these substances are prime contributors to tooth decay and gum disease if left unchecked. Our hygienist will also meticulously floss between your teeth, reaching areas that are often missed during regular brushing. Following the cleaning, we polish your teeth, leaving them feeling smooth and looking radiant.
Following your cleaning, our dentists will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth and supporting oral structures. This exam is vital for detection of early signs of dental conditions or diseases that could compromise your oral health. We use diagnostic tools, such as dental X-rays, as needed to gain a complete understanding of your oral health status and ensure that any hidden issues are diagnosed and addressed promptly. We may also recommend additional preventive treatments, such as sealants and fluoride, if needed.
Regular dental cleanings and exams are an indispensable part of keeping your teeth and smile healthy. We recommend that you receive this dental checkup every six months, though depending on your needs our dentists could recommend a more frequent schedule of visits. We are also pleased to offer emergency dental care if you experience an injury or any type of discomfort or tooth damage. If this is the case, please contact us as soon as possible.
