Dental Exam & Cleaning

A professional exam and cleaning are essential components of preventive dental care. Attending bi-annual exams allows minor issues to be caught early, preventing them from developing into more serious problems. Hygienist-performed cleanings remove hardened plaque, tartar, and surface stains, leaving your teeth cleaner and your breath fresher. Regular exams and cleanings are important for patients of all ages, helping maintain optimal oral health and a confident smile.

It’s recommended to have a dental exam and professional cleaning every six months. We can help by pre-scheduling your appointments, so you never have to worry about remembering when your next visit is due. Regular care helps reduce the risk of cavities and the need for more extensive dental work. Our team is committed to making each exam and cleaning as comfortable and efficient as possible.

Your visit will begin with a professional cleaning performed by our hygienist. X-rays may be taken beforehand as part of your preventive care. During the cleaning, the hygienist will also measure your gums to check for signs of gingivitis or gum disease.

Afterward, Dr. Sheth will perform a thorough dental exam, looking for tooth decay, loose restorations, and other oral health issues. Dr. Sheth will also screen for oral cancer and discuss any necessary treatment plans if concerns are found. Regular dental visits offer numerous benefits, making them an important part of maintaining your and your family’s oral health.
