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
