Dental cleaning is an important part of the dental visit. A good dental cleaning will remove plaque and tartar from your teeth. This will help to prevent cavities and gum disease. A dental cleaning will also help to remove any surface stains that are present on your teeth.
A dental cleaning can be done in many different ways. You can have a general dental cleaning, which typically includes scale and polish, or you may have a deep cleaning.
When you come in for your dental exam with us, you'll be sitting down with Dr. Dimitry to talk about your oral health, any issues or concerns you have, and any treatments or services you may need. This is an important part of our visit because it helps us diagnose any dental issues you might be having. We’ll ask questions about your teeth, gums, and mouth to find out if anything needs to be treated.
During your exam, the doctor will check your teeth for cavities, tooth decay, gum disease, or any other problem that needs to be addressed. We'll also check for any signs of oral cancer and make sure your dentures are properly fitting. We'll also use an oral camera to take a picture of your teeth to make sure they don’t have any hidden problems.
