Regular dental visits every six months are essential for maintaining healthy teeth and gums. During your visit, our dentist or dental hygienist will perform a thorough examination of your head, neck, gums, teeth, and mouth to detect any abnormalities. They may also check your saliva and jaw movement as part of a complete oral health assessment.

Why Dental Cleanings Are Important

• Detect early signs of tooth decay and gum disease
• Remove plaque and tartar buildup, which can irritate gums and cause disease
• Polish teeth to remove surface stains and keep your smile looking bright
• Prevent oral bacteria from entering the bloodstream, which can affect overall health

What to Expect During a Cleaning

• A detailed oral examination to check for any issues
• Removal of plaque and tartar from teeth and under the gum line
• Polishing of teeth to eliminate surface stains
• Personalized guidance for at-home oral care between visits

Regular dental cleanings not only keep your teeth and gums healthy but also support your overall health. Our dental professionals may provide additional recommendations based on your examination to ensure your smile stays strong for years to come.
