Regular dental cleanings and exams maintain your healthy smile. During your cleaning, our dentists or hygienists remove plaque and tartar that brushing alone can’t resolve. This helps prevent cavities and gum disease.
The exam part of the visit allows the dentist to check for any issues like tooth decay or gum problems. X-rays may also be taken to get a clear view of your teeth and jaw. Early detection of your dental problems can save you from pain and more expensive treatments later on.
A cleaning and exam visit usually takes about an hour. It’s recommended to get these done twice a year. These appointments help keep your teeth strong and your gums healthy. Plus, professional cleanings leave your teeth feeling fresh and smooth.
Taking care of your teeth at home with regular brushing and flossing is important, but cleanings and exams give you that extra level of care. They also give you the chance to ask our dentists any questions.
Finally, routine cleanings and exams are a huge part of keeping and maintaining your teeth and gums healthy. They help you prevent dental issues and keep your smile bright. By seeing our dentists regularly, you can stay ahead of your oral health and avoid future problems.
