Importance of Dental Exams

Regular dental exams are an essential part of maintaining optimal oral health. During a dental exam, our experienced dentists thoroughly evaluate your teeth, gums, and overall oral health to detect any signs of dental problems early and prevent them from progressing into more serious issues.

What to Expect During a Dental Exam

• Comprehensive Evaluation: Our dental exams include a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and oral tissues to assess your overall oral health. We may also perform dental X-rays to detect any hidden dental problems not visible to the naked eye.

• Oral Cancer Screening: As part of our commitment to your health, we conduct oral cancer screenings during dental exams to detect any signs or symptoms of oral cancer early when treatment is most effective.

Benefits of Professional Dental Cleaning

Professional dental cleanings, also known as prophylaxis, are an essential component of preventive dental care. During a cleaning appointment, our skilled dental hygienists remove plaque, tartar, and stubborn stains from your teeth, helping to prevent cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues.

What to Expect During a Dental Cleaning

• Plaque and Tartar Removal: Our dental hygienists use specialized tools to remove plaque and tartar buildup from the surfaces of your teeth and along the gumline, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease.

• Polishing: After plaque and tartar removal, your teeth are polished to remove surface stains and give them a smooth, clean finish, enhancing the appearance of your smile.

• Education and Prevention: Our dental hygienists provide personalized oral hygiene instructions and tips to help you maintain good oral health between dental visits. We may also recommend additional preventive measures, such as fluoride treatments or dental sealants, to protect your teeth from decay.
