Preventive-first careThe foundation of a healthy smile

What happens during a dental cleaning and exam?

Routine cleanings and exams are the foundation of long-term oral health. Your hygienist removes plaque and tartar that brushing cannot fully reach, while the dentist checks for cavities, gum changes, bite concerns, and other issues that are easier to treat early. Digital X-rays and an oral cancer screening help us see the full picture, and we tailor your recall schedule based on your risk factors, gum health, and goals.

What your visit can include

  • Professional plaque and tartar removal
  • Polishing for a smooth, fresh finish

Common Questions

Cleanings & Exams, answered.

How often should I get a cleaning?
Most patients do well with a cleaning and exam every six months. If you have gum disease, a history of frequent cavities, or specific risk factors, we may recommend a different schedule.
Are dental X-rays safe?
Yes. We use digital X-rays, which use a very low radiation dose, and we take them only when they are needed to diagnose or monitor your oral health.
Does a cleaning hurt?
Cleanings are usually comfortable. If your teeth are sensitive or your gums are inflamed, let us know so we can adjust the pace and keep you comfortable.
Is this covered by insurance?
Most dental plans cover preventive cleanings and exams in full or in large part. We can help verify your benefits before your visit.
