What to Expect
Dental Examination
During your exam, the dentist will:
- Check your teeth, gums, tongue, and cheeks for cavities, plaque, and gum disease.
- Take X-rays (recommended annually) to identify cavities, bone loss, or abnormalities.
- Discuss any needed procedures and answer your questions to ensure you fully understand your care plan.
Dental Cleaning
After your exam, our dental hygienist will perform a thorough cleaning to prevent or slow gum disease, tooth decay, and bone loss.
At-Home Care
Maintaining proper oral hygiene is crucial to preventing tooth loss. Daily habits like brushing twice a day, flossing, drinking water, and avoiding harmful foods and drinks are essential. Our team is happy to offer personalized advice during your visit.
