Dental Examination & Cleaning

Regular dental exams and teeth cleaning are key to maintaining healthy teeth and gums and avoiding oral health issues.

Benefits of dental exams

During your routine check-up, your dentist will look for any signs of tooth decay, gum disease, oral cancer, and bad breath (halitosis).
If an oral infection is detected too late it can spread to other parts of your body, including vital organs.
That’s why the importance of dental checkups is further highlighted by their financial benefits. By ensuring that your oral health remains in good condition, you can avoid costly dental procedures later on.

Benefits of dental cleanings

During a dental cleaning, your dentist or dental hygienist will remove bacteria, plaque, and tartar buildup from your teeth surfaces.
If you have a build-up of plaque beneath the gum line, your dental professional can resolve the problem with a specialized form of dental cleaning called scaling that’s used in cases of gum disease.
Dental cleaning also includes flossing between your teeth and polishing to remove stains and leave your mouth feeling fresh.

How much does a dental check-up and cleaning cost?

Almost all insurances cover preventive dental treatment.
If you need to have a deep dental cleaning, you can expect the cost to be more than a regular dental cleaning because of time and other factors involved, and also some deep dental cleanings will require more than one session.
