What to expect during dental exams & cleaning

Teeth & gum cleaning

Dental cleaning involves removing plaque and tartar that contains bacteria that expose you to tooth decay. Regular brushing is not enough and you require professional cleaning regularly.

Dental X-rays

X-rays capture images of the interior of your teeth and gums to help your dentist discover potential problems. These are done in a process known as examination. A dental examination is usually non-invasive and involves other techniques too.

Full check-ups

As part of our routine exams and cleaning, we perform a full checkup on your teeth, gums, jaws, cheeks, tongue, neck, and head.

Oral cancer screening

Oral cancer is becoming more common nowadays. We take the opportunity to screen you for oral cancer at each exam appointment.

During your first dental exam & cleaning with us, we will have a discussion about your oral health and your lifestyle to determine whether you are at risk of developing dental problems. If you need to adjust your lifestyle, we will help you make the changes slowly. If you already have a dental problem, we will create a treatment plan suitable for you laying down all the available treatment options.
