Routine Exams & Cleanings
Keep your teeth & gums healthy for the long-term.
Have a lifetime of great smiles
Diligently brushing & flossing at home keeps plaque build-up at a minimum, but there are always places you will miss. Professional cleaning ensures that your smile stays bright and your teeth stay healthy for longer.




Why are routine dental exams & cleanings important?
Comprehensive cleaning all of the debris, bacteria, and deposits that could result in periodontal issues (like gum disease).
Preventative Care
With daily brushing & flossing alongside regular cleanings, we focus on preventing complicated issues like gum disease and major tartar buildup that can be more painful to remove.

What do you need to know about routine exams?
Your smile is unique – which is why it’s so important for us to see you routinely. We can keep your teeth strong and gums healthy with cleanings and recommendations specific to you.
What can I expect during my routine visit?
Every exam and cleaning could include: brushing, flossing, polishing, plaque & tarter removal, and more! It depends on your unique smile.
Is this service for all ages? Or is there a special cleaning for children?
Great question – if your child is routinely seen by your pediatrician we start seeing most children in our practice starting at age 3+. For children we provide careful and gentle cleanings as well as fluoride treatment to protect their precious smiles!
What is periodontal disease?
Also known as gum disease, it is the disease that affects the hard and soft tissue that holds the teeth in the jaw bone.
Why aren't brushing and flossing at home enough?
Daily brushing and flossing helps prevent plaque buildup, but there are some areas below the gums that your floss and toothbrush can’t reach. Dental diseases are progressive and have better treatment outcomes with early intervention.
How many times a year should I get a cleaning and exam?
We recommend twice a year, or every 3-4 months if you have periodontal disease.
