A dental exam and cleaning are specifically designed to help keep your teeth and mouth healthy. Cleanings are performed by a registered dental hygienist who works to clean away built-up tartar and stains from the teeth. The exam is done to help identify issues before they are able to get worse. We recommend having a cleaning and exam done every six months as part of your preventative care regimen.
We will first seat you in one of our comfortable examination rooms. We then ask you about the problem that is troubling you to gather more information regarding the emergency. In most cases, we will take an x-ray of the tooth to help in identifying the problem and creating a treatment plan. The exam includes a thorough inspection of your teeth, gums and mouth.
We look for cavities, problem areas as well as oral cancer. We then create a treatment plan for you and schedule your next checkup visit. If you would like to schedule an appointment for a dental exam and cleaning, call us today so that we can get you in for an appointment as soon as possible.
You may be wondering why a dental cleaning is needed if you already brush and floss your teeth properly at home. Likewise, you might not feel you need an exam because there is nothing that is actively bothering or hurting you. It is important to note that prevention is key when it comes to your dental health. Even with the very best brushing and flossing techniques, tartar can buildup on the teeth as well as areas of decay.
Everyone who has teeth is a good candidate for both a cleaning and examination. We recommend children who are just starting to get their baby teeth come in for appointments every six months. From that point on, it’s important to make it a habit to come into the office to keep up with the health of your teeth. These preventative measures can help in keeping your smile looking its best for life.
We take immense pride in providing exceptional dental care, and nothing brings us more joy than hearing from those whose lives we've touched. Read reviews and testimonials featuring our patients.
More ReviewsAfter going to the same dentist for 50 years I was faced with finding a new one. I am very happy I found Dr Patel. I’ve had a few fillings done and also a couple of teeth replaced and I couldn’t be happier.
I never thought I would look forward to getting my teeth cleaned until I found Brentwood Orchard Dentistry! The receptionists are very welcoming and the dental hygienist is wonderful.
Dr. Patel and his staff are very professional and kind. He takes the time to make sure all work is done perfectly and as painless as possible. The staff in the front are also great!
Can’t thank the staff enough for the care and compassion they show to both my kids , both of whom have special needs and require extra support and assistance. Without y’all my family would be in such a different place.
Dr. Patel, and his staff ARE amazing. I have been going to Orchard Dental for several years now. Today I had to go in and get some fillings replaced, I was very nervous from previous dental experiences.
