Prioritizing Your Oral Health

Book AppointmentThe Power of Prevention
Dental exams and cleanings are about much more than just aesthetics. Regular exams allow us to identify potential issues like cavities, gum disease, and oral cancer in their early stages when they are easier and less expensive to treat.
During these visits, our team can detect early signs of problems and provide the necessary care to keep your mouth healthy.
How Often Should You Schedule Exams & Cleanings?
Our recommended frequency for dental exams and cleanings can vary depending on your individual needs.
Generally, most patients benefit from a checkup and cleaning every 6 months. However, our team will assess your specific situation during your initial appointment and recommend a personalized schedule.
Some factors that can influence your exam frequency can include:
- Your oral health history
- Your risk factors for cavities or gum disease
- Your overall health
- Your personal preferences
What to Expect During Your Appointment
We’ll thoroughly examine your teeth and gums during your exam and cleaning. The process may involve:
- X-rays (if necessary): Dental X-rays provide a valuable view of your teeth and jawbone, helping us to detect hidden cavities or other issues beneath the surface.
- Teeth cleaning: We’ll remove plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth, even in the hard-to-reach areas.
- Oral cancer screening: A visual and physical examination of your mouth, throat, and lymph nodes for signs of oral cancer.
- Brushing and flossing instruction: Our hygienist will provide guidance on proper brushing and flossing techniques to maintain good oral hygiene at home
Consistent Care Is Key
While skipping a dental appointment here or there might seem harmless, neglecting your oral health can lead to issues later.
Consistent dental care is the cornerstone of preventive dentistry, helping to identify and address potential issues before they snowball into more complex problems, including:
- Cavities
- Gum disease
- Bad breath
