Cleanings and Exams

Maintaining a healthy smile starts with regular dental cleanings and exams. For most patients, dental professionals recommend a cleaning and exam every six months. For patients with gum disease or other oral health concerns, we recommend more frequent appointments. These routine visits help remove plaque and tartar buildup, detect early signs of cavities or gum disease, and ensure your teeth and gums remain healthy. Regular checkups also allow your dentist to monitor changes in your oral health over time.

Individual Needs May Vary

Some patients may require more frequent visits, depending on factors such as gum health, history of cavities, or certain medical conditions. Your dentist will provide personalized guidance on the ideal schedule for your oral care.

Benefits of Regular Cleanings and Exams

Frequent checkups not only prevent serious dental problems but also improve overall oral health, freshen breath, and help maintain a bright, confident smile. Early detection of issues can lead to simpler treatments and fewer complications.
