A routine cleaning and checkup does more than polish your teeth — it's the visit most likely to catch a problem while it's still small and inexpensive to fix. A hygienist removes plaque and tartar buildup brushing alone can't reach, especially below the gumline. The exam that follows checks for cavities, gum disease, and early signs like enamel wear or oral cancer.
Bitewing X-rays catch cavities forming between teeth long before they'd be visible or symptomatic. Twice-yearly visits are recommended because tartar starts reforming within months, even with good home care.
Skipping a cleaning doesn't just risk cavities — hardened tartar left in place eventually leads to the gum recession and bone loss seen in advanced periodontal disease. Catching it at the routine-checkup stage is far cheaper and less invasive than treating it once it's advanced.
Pocket depths around each tooth are measured to catch gum disease early.
Bitewing imaging catches between-teeth decay invisible to a visual exam.
A visual and physical screening for early signs of oral cancer is part of every standard exam.
Fluoride treatments and sealants can often be applied the same day as your cleaning.
Whatever the specifics of your case, the specialist we route you to has handled it before.
The standard twice-yearly cleaning for patients without active gum disease.
