Be Proactive About Your Oral Health

You have to keep your teeth clean and healthy to keep your beautiful smile. Daily brushing and flossing along with keeping your regular dentist appointments can make a big difference in your long-term oral health. During cleanings and exams we will:

  • Perform a thorough cleaning that removes plaque and tartar from your teeth. This goes a long way toward preventing cavities and periodontal disease.
  • Look for signs of decay, infection, and other serious problems. The sooner we spot problems, the sooner we can offer treatment such as a dental filling or gum disease treatment.
  • Perform a screening for sleep apnea. Since this disorder has been linked to serious problems like heart disease and stroke, it’s important to catch it so it can be treated.
  • Provide fluoride treatments and dental sealants for further preventive care, if needed. Fluoride is a mineral that makes your teeth stronger and more resistant to decay. Sealants act as a physical barrier that offers added protection from harmful bacteria.

Over the course of a lifetime, more than 90 percent of people will have at least one cavity and at least 70 percent of people will develop gum infections, according to conservative estimates. Professional dental care is invaluable for preserving your oral health.

Common Questions About Dental Cleanings & Exams

How often should I have a dental cleaning and exam?

For best results, we suggest coming in for a cleaning every six months. That way we will also be able to evaluate your oral health and identify anything that seems amiss in your mouth since your last appointment. Besides, two of these sessions are usually included in your annual insurance benefits!

How long does a dental cleaning and exam take?

It really depends on how long it has been since your last visit. Normally our checkups will be over in an hour or less. That said, if you have not made it to the dentist’s office in a while, your cleaning could take longer than usual due to buildup. On top of that, if we see any issues unfolding, we’ll take more time to talk through the available solutions.

How much does a dental cleaning and exam cost?

Most dental insurance plans allow for two of these preventive checkup appointments with cleanings and exams each calendar year. These benefits seldom roll over though, so use it before you lose it. You can always call our Cumming, GA office to find out more about costs and inquire about current promotions.

Why are dental cleanings and exams necessary?

According to the American Dental Association, you should brush your teeth at least twice and floss once every day. While this is essential for keeping your mouth clean and healthy, only a professional has the instruments and training to remove plaque buildup from your teeth and spot gum disease in its earliest stage. This is why you should visit your dentist for cleanings about every six months.
