Dental hygiene and examinations are essential components of oral care. Regular dental examinations and hygiene appointments ensure that teeth remain healthy and free from decay, gum disease, and other issues.

Dental Examination and Hygiene Procedures
Even if you brush and floss thoroughly every day, it’s easy to miss some spots, especially between teeth and in the back of your mouth. This simple and painless process eliminates plaque and tartar around your gum line and between your teeth. Using professional tools and a special tooth polish, your hygienist will gently clean your teeth to remove any stubborn tartar. Lastly, your hygienist applies a fluoride treatment to your teeth for added protection against cavities.
If you have any questions about oral hygiene examinations near you, please contact us.
Digital X-rays
During your appointment, your dentist will take digital X-rays of your teeth and mouth. Dental X-rays help your dentist identify oral health issues such as small cracks in the teeth, cavities under the gum line and between teeth, periodontal disease, impacted teeth, and more. A digital X-ray can reveal problems that are impossible to see with the naked eye.
