Dental cleanings and exams are a key part of maintaining your oral health and smile and are among the most important preventive treatments our dentists and team provide. These regular visits help you avoid problems such as tooth decay and gum disease, as well as allowing our dentists to monitor your oral health, help ensure that any developing problems are diagnosed quickly and allow you to receive any additional treatments you may need.
During your appointment, we will:
- Thoroughly clean your teeth to remove any plaque or tartar.
- Floss and polish your teeth.
- Examine your teeth and mouth for signs of any damaging dental conditions or diseases.
- Take any X-rays that may be necessary.
Our dentists will also review our findings with you so that you can understand your current oral health. We may make recommendations on ways to improve your at-home oral hygiene and provide other preventive treatments, such as sealants or fluoride, if needed. If you require any further treatment, we will discuss your options with you so that you can make a fully informed decision about your treatment plan.
We recommend that you visit Dental Zone every six months for a routine cleaning and exam. Depending on your needs, our dentists may recommend a more frequent schedule of visits. We also encourage you to call our office as soon as possible if you experience a dental emergency, pain or injury so that you can receive treatment quickly.
