Cleanings & Exams
Regular visits let your dentist check your teeth and gums, remove buildup you cannot reach at home and catch small problems before they become big ones. Your schedule is based on your own needs, not a one-size-fits-all rule.
Can help with
- Professional plaque and tartar removal
- A full check of teeth, gums and bite
- Digital X-rays when they are due
- Practical tips for brushing and flossing at home
