An important part of keeping your smile healthy is visiting Lifeworks Dental for regular dental cleanings and exams. These routine visits help you maintain good oral and overall health and allow our dentists to promptly provide any necessary treatments. We are dedicated to ensuring that your smile stays beautiful and healthy through comprehensive preventive care.
Why Are Dental Cleanings & Exams Important?
Regular dental cleanings and exams are essential for maintaining optimal oral health. These visits allow us to:
- Remove Plaque and Tartar: Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup that regular brushing and flossing can’t eliminate, reducing the risk of cavities and gum disease.
- Detect Problems Early: Routine exams help detect dental issues early, allowing for prompt treatment before they become more serious.
- Maintain Overall Health: Good oral health is linked to overall health. Regular dental visits can help prevent systemic issues related to oral infections and diseases.
- Provide Personalized Care: During your visit, we can offer personalized advice and treatments tailored to your specific needs and oral health goals.
What to Expect During Your Visit
When you visit Lifeworks Dental for a dental cleaning and exam, you can expect a thorough and gentle experience:
- Professional Cleaning: Our dental hygienist will start by cleaning your teeth to remove plaque and tartar. This includes scaling to remove buildup and polishing to make your teeth smooth and shiny.
- Comprehensive Exam: Our dentist will perform a comprehensive exam of your teeth, gums, and mouth. This includes checking for signs of cavities, gum disease, oral cancer, and other dental issues.
- X-Rays: If necessary, we may take digital X-rays to get a detailed view of your teeth and jawbone, helping us identify any hidden problems.
- Personalized Advice: Based on the exam and cleaning, we will provide personalized advice on maintaining good oral hygiene and may recommend treatments if any issues are found.
