What to Expect
During Cleaning & Exam

Your appointment begins with a gentle cleaning performed by one of our skilled hygienists. They remove plaque, tartar, and stains while polishing your teeth for a fresh, bright finish. Next, our dentists perform a comprehensive exam — assessing your teeth, gums, bite, and overall oral health. If needed, they may recommend X-rays or additional diagnostics to ensure nothing is missed. By the end of your visit, you’ll have a clear understanding of your oral health and personalized recommendations to keep your smile in excellent shape.

Frequently Asked
Questions

How often should I get a dental cleaning and exam?

accordion-icon

Most patients should have a dental cleaning and exam every six months to maintain healthy teeth and gums. However, some may need more frequent visits based on their oral health needs. Your dentist will recommend a personalized schedule for you.

Do dental cleanings hurt?

accordion-icon

Dental cleanings are typically painless. You may feel light pressure or vibration, especially if there’s plaque buildup, but most patients find the experience very comfortable. If you have sensitive teeth, let us know — we’ll take extra care.

Why are dental exams important?

Dental exams help us catch problems early — like cavities, gum disease, and even signs of oral cancer. Early detection leads to easier, less invasive treatment and keeps your mouth healthier in the long run.

What happens if plaque and tartar aren’t removed?

accordion-icon

If not removed regularly, plaque hardens into tartar, which can lead to gum disease, cavities, bad breath, and even tooth loss. Professional cleanings remove what brushing and flossing can’t.

Are dental cleanings covered by insurance?

accordion-icon

Yes, most dental insurance plans cover cleanings and exams twice a year as part of preventive care. We’ll be happy to check your benefits and help you maximize your coverage.

Can I request certain areas to be checked?

Absolutely! Whether you have concerns about a specific tooth, gum area, or sensitivity, our team will thoroughly examine the areas you mention and address all your questions.
