Dental Cleanings and Exams Create Healthy Smiles

dental-cleaning-and-exam

Think of your dental cleanings and exams as a deep cleaning – just like when you clean your home. You inspect the area, decide what needs cleaned and what looks good, and get to work! Your dentist and hygienist will do the same for your mouth.

During a dental exam, we will:

  • Possibly take x-rays, if needed
  • Examine your teeth, gums, and mouth for any potential concerns
  • Remove any plaque and tartar build-up
  • Polish your teeth with a dental-grade toothbrush and specialty toothpaste
  • Floss
  • Apply a fluoride treatment, if needed
  • Oral Cancer Screening

Regular Dental Exams & Cleanings can Help You Avoid Gum Disease

Your Smile is Meant to Last a Lifetime

Your smile was meant to last a lifetime. That’s why it’s so important to take care of your teeth, so they can function well and last as long as they’re supposed to. Ultimately, the best thing you can do for your teeth’s durability is seeing your dentist for regular dental exams and cleanings.

According to the Oral Health Foundation, “Dental appointments shouldn’t just be made when you have a problem that needs to be addressed. Prevention is always better than needing a cure and there are plenty more reasons why it’s important to maintain regular visits to your local dental practice.”

Some of these reasons include:

  • Prevention of plaque, tartar, and decay
  • Helps keep gum disease away
  • Checking for oral cancer and other health issues
  • Getting advice on your specific needs/oral health goals

Preventative dentistry focuses on dental care practices, good oral health, and early detection – which is what’s happening during your routine dental exams. So, your dentist and hygienist may talk with you about what steps to take to avoid gum disease, cavities, and tooth decay, and bring you up to speed on best oral health practices to incorporate into your daily routine, and so on.
