Preventive Care, Dental Exams and Cleanings
Regular dental visits give us a chance to assess your teeth and gums and discuss changes you have noticed. Prevention also includes practical guidance for caring for your smile between appointments.
A dental exam and cleaning can include a review of your oral health, assessment for decay and gum concerns, and removal of plaque and tartar. X-rays are recommended when needed to help evaluate areas that cannot be seen during a visual exam.
Your dentist will recommend the type of cleaning and follow-up schedule that fit your oral health. If signs of gum disease are present, a routine cleaning may not be the right treatment.
Tell us about sensitivity, bleeding gums, changes in your bite, or any other concerns when you schedule.

Fillings, Crowns and Dental Bridges
Treatment for a damaged or decayed tooth depends on the amount of healthy tooth structure remaining and the findings of your exam.
Dental fillings repair areas affected by cavities. A dental crown may be recommended when a tooth needs more coverage and support than a filling can provide.
For missing teeth, dental bridges are one replacement option. Your dentist can compare suitable options based on the health of nearby teeth, your bite, and your goals.
Gum Health and Periodontal Care
Healthy gums support your teeth. Bleeding when brushing, persistent bad breath, tenderness, or gums pulling away from teeth are reasons to arrange a dental evaluation. Gum disease can also develop without obvious discomfort.
If your exam identifies gum disease, your dentist may recommend deep cleaning or other periodontal care. Treatment and maintenance visits depend on the condition of your gums.
Daily brushing and cleaning between teeth remain important alongside professional care. Ask us how to clean around crowns, bridges, and other dental work.
What to Expect at Your Visit
Your visit begins with your concerns and health history. Let us know if you are experiencing pain or feeling anxious about dental treatment.
- Share your history: Bring a medication list and details of recent dental care. Ask about transferring prior dental records or X-rays.
- Receive an evaluation: Your dentist examines your teeth and gums and recommends imaging when needed.

- Plan ongoing care: Arrange the appropriate cleaning, treatment, or follow-up visits.
Cleaning or treatment at the first visit depends on your needs and appointment availability.

General Dentistry FAQs
How often should I visit the dentist?
Your dentist recommends a schedule based on your teeth, gums, and risk of dental problems. Some patients need more frequent visits for ongoing care.

Can I return if it has been years?
Yes. Start by scheduling an exam and sharing any concerns. Your dentist can assess your current needs and discuss a plan.
