What to Expect During Your Dental Check-Up

During your first visit, we will dedicate approximately two hours to conduct a full examination of your oral health. Our team will perform necessary x-rays to assess the condition and quality of your teeth, and we will also conduct an oral cancer screening to ensure your overall well-being.


The subsequent check-up visits typically take about an hour. If you have had previous dental X-rays taken, we will do our best to obtain them to minimize additional costs and provide a comprehensive view of your dental health.

The Importance of Regular Dental Exams and Cleanings

Maintaining excellent oral hygiene is crucial in eliminating bacteria and preventing long-term dental issues.



Regular dental exams and cleanings play a vital role in ensuring the health of your mouth. They allow us to evaluate your current dental care practices, provide tailored recommendations for future care, and protect you from complications such as cavities and gum disease.

By detecting problems early on, we can address them quickly, efficiently and before they become more extensive and costly to treat.

Customized Dental Care Frequency

Typically, dental cleanings and exams are recommended every six months. However, we understand that each patient is different. Some factors may necessitate more frequent visits, such as:

  • smoking
  • frequency of cavities
  • genetic susceptibility to tooth decay
  • root decay
  • gum disease
  • and more

Our dental team will work closely with you to determine the ideal check-up frequency based on your specific circumstances and oral health needs.

Your Dental Cleaning Appointment: What to Expect

Dental cleanings and exams are all about meticulously cleaning your teeth, and removing stubborn surface stains and deposits known as tartar or calculus.


We will assess your teeth for signs of decay or gum disease. If necessary, we may perform an X-ray to gain a more detailed understanding of your oral health and identify any underlying issues.

How to Prepare for Your Dental Exam

  • It is helpful to clean your teeth before your appointment, removing food particles and plaque. This allows us to focus on the more challenging-to-clean areas during the check-up.
  • Be prepared to share essential information, including your medical history, insurance coverage, and current dental care practices. Our team is here to support you and work together to improve your habits and ensure dental health.
  • Finally, expect to schedule a follow-up appointment or future check-up at the end of your dental exam to maintain continuity of care.
