Polished, Protected, Powerful: Why Cleanings and Exams Matter
Even if your teeth look and feel fine, your mouth constantly works to fight off bacteria, food particles, and daily wear. Over time, plaque hardens into tartar, cavities sneak in, and gum health can decline without obvious symptoms. The dentist addresses these issues before they become costly or uncomfortable. These visits support your long-term oral health and give us a clear picture of any changes that need attention.
Here’s what we accomplish during your cleaning and exam:
- Remove hardened tartar and surface stains with professional tools
- Identify early signs of decay, gum disease, or enamel erosion
- Screen for oral cancer and other abnormalities
- Assess previous dental work for wear or damage
- Offer personalized guidance on brushing, flossing, and dietary habits
Inside the Visit: What Happens During Your Appointment
We make every visit efficient, thorough, and comfortable. Our team prepares for your arrival, listens to your concerns, and delivers treatment with precision.
- Step 1: Medical Review and Conversation
Our hygienist begins by reviewing your medical history and asking about any concerns or changes you’ve noticed. - Step 2: Professional Cleaning
We remove plaque, tartar, and surface stains using ultrasonic tools and gentle hand scaling. Then we polish your teeth until they shine. - Step 3: Periodontal Evaluation
The dentist assesses your gum health by checking pocket depths and looking for inflammation, recession, or bleeding. - Step 4: Comprehensive Exam
The doctor examines your teeth, bite, soft tissues, and jaw joints. We use digital imaging if needed to spot issues below the surface. - Step 5: Personalized Recommendations
We share our findings and work with you to build a plan that supports your long-term health and goals.
