What’s Included in Your Dental Exam and Cleaning

We understand that every patient’s needs are different. That’s why we tailor each visit to your individual situation. Here’s what a typical dental exam and cleaning appointment includes:

Comprehensive Oral Exam

Your dentist will examine every tooth for cavities, check your gums for signs of disease, and screen for oral cancer. We use digital X-rays to see what’s happening between your teeth and beneath the surface, catching problems early when they’re easiest to treat.

Professional Cleaning

Our skilled hygienist will remove plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth and below the gumline using gentle, specialized techniques. You’ll leave with smooth, polished teeth that feel fresh and look bright.

Personalized Recommendations

If we spot anything that needs attention, we’ll discuss your options clearly and help you make informed decisions about your care.

FAQ

Dental Cleaning and Exam FAQ

How long does a dental exam and cleaning take?

Most adults with healthy gums and adequate jawbone are candidates. Even patients with bone loss often qualify after a bone graft or with techniques like All-on-4 that don’t require as much bone. Your CBCT scan at the consultation provides a definitive answer.

How long do dental implants last?

A typical appointment lasts about 45 minutes to an hour. The hygienist handles the cleaning, and your dentist completes the exam and any necessary X-rays.

Is a dental cleaning painful?

Not at all. You’ll feel light pressure and hear gentle vibrations, but there’s no pain involved. If you have sensitive teeth or gums, let us know so we can adjust our approach.
