Cleanings & exams

What happens at your visit

You start with a gentle cleaning to remove plaque and tartar, then a full exam. We take digital X-rays when they are due, which use far less radiation than older film.

Your dentist checks teeth, gums, and your mouth and neck for anything unusual. Nothing is a surprise, because we explain each step as we go.

What you leave with

A clear summary of what we found, what can wait, and what should not. If anything needs treatment, you get a written plan with costs before we schedule it.
