A Healthy Smile Starts with Preventive Care
Routine dental cleanings and digital X-rays are the foundation of long-term oral health. At our office, we encourage patients to maintain consistent hygiene visits—typically every six months—to prevent issues before they start and to keep your smile bright, strong, and healthy. Whether you're coming in for your very first checkup or you're a returning patient, our team is here to support you every step of the way.
Why Regular Cleanings Matter
Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup in areas that brushing and flossing can’t reach.
Beyond the cosmetic benefit of a cleaner smile, these visits support:
-
Healthier gums and stronger tooth structure
-
Longer-lasting teeth and fewer cavities
-
Early detection of oral cancer and systemic conditions
-
Fresher breath and confidence in your smile
​
Routine checkups are essential for catching issues early—before they become painful or expensive.
What Happens If You Skip Cleanings?
Neglecting regular dental cleanings can lead to serious oral and systemic issues, such as:
-
Gum disease and recession
-
Tooth loss or sensitivity
-
Chronic bad breath
-
Difficulty chewing and poor digestion
-
Potential links to heart disease and other health concerns
Our goal is to help you avoid these complications and enjoy long-term oral wellness.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
Your initial dental cleaning and checkup typically lasts around an hour. During your visit, we’ll take the time to understand your needs, review your health history, and deliver personalized care, including:
-
Digital X-rays to reveal hidden decay or bone loss
-
Gum health evaluation with pocket depth measurements
-
Oral cancer screening and lesion assessment
-
Comprehensive teeth cleaning to remove plaque, tartar, and stain buildup
-
Personalized hygiene tips to help you maintain your results at home
If you’ve had X-rays taken within the past year, we’re happy to review them—just have them sent to our office before your visit.
The Cleaning Procedure, Explained
Our hygienists use gentle, advanced techniques to clean every surface of your teeth—including between your teeth and along the gumline. We use professional-grade instruments to remove both soft plaque and hardened tartar, followed by polishing with prophy paste to leave your teeth smooth and refreshed.
Before you leave, we’ll show you any areas that need extra attention at home and offer guidance on how to maintain a healthy smile between visits.
Are There Different Types of Dental Cleanings?
Yes—and it depends on your gum health. While most patients benefit from a standard prophylaxis cleaning every six months, others may need more specialized periodontal care:
Full Mouth Debridement
for heavy tartar buildup before a full exam
Scaling and Root Planing (Deep Cleaning)
for early to moderate gum disease
Periodontal Maintenance
for patients with a history of periodontal disease
Not sure which type of cleaning you need? Our team will assess your gums and guide you toward the appropriate care.
