DENTAL EXAM & CLEANING

The most common procedure performed, is dental cleaning, it serves as the forefront to optimal oral health. At our practice, you can expect a dental cleaning that is not only thorough, but also professional.

Our dentist or certified dental hygienist will perform 3 basic procedures that make up a dental cleaning:

Calculus Control

We use specific tools that are designed to wash away any calculus, or tartar, that have accumulated on your teeth. Tartar resides above and just below your gum line and must be removed in order to prevent tooth decay.

Hand Instruments

After we use a pressurized tool to blast away calculus, we then use another hand instrument to further remove any remaining tartar.

Polishing

Lastly, we use an abrasive, polishing substance that further removes plaque, while also removing minor surface stains for a complete & thorough clean. The polishing substance is flavorful so that children may enjoy it.
