Dental Exams and Cleanings

What are Dental Exams and Cleanings?

During your routine exams and cleanings, our doctors take a comprehensive look at your teeth, gums, and overall oral health to catch any concerns early. If they find something that needs attention, they’ll walk you through what they see and recommend a treatment plan tailored to you.

Your visit includes a thorough exam with one of our doctors followed by a professional cleaning tailored to your individual needs.

During your cleaning, our hygienists gently remove plaque, tartar, and buildup that brushing and flossing can’t reach. Regular professional cleanings help keep your teeth and gums healthy, prevent cavities and gum disease, and leave your smile feeling fresh and clean.

Who Needs Dental Exams and Cleanings?

For most patients, we recommend an exam and professional cleaning every six months. Depending on your individual needs and oral health, our doctors may recommend a different schedule to help keep your teeth and gums at their healthiest.

Great oral health starts at home, but even the best brushing and flossing routine can’t do everything. Regular visits allow us to catch small changes early, remove buildup you can’t reach at home, and help prevent minor concerns from becoming bigger ones.

Keeping your smile healthy doesn’t have to be complicated. Our team is here to make routine dental care comfortable, thorough, and easy to stay on top of.
