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. Professional cleaning targets hardened tartar that a toothbrush simply can't remove, particularly around each tooth. The exam that follows checks for cavities, gum disease, and early signs like enamel wear or oral cancer.
Digital X-rays, taken periodically rather than every visit, reveal decay between teeth that a visual exam alone would miss. Twice-yearly visits are recommended because tartar starts reforming within months, even with good home care.
The consequences of skipped cleanings compound slowly, which is part of why the damage often isn't noticed until it's already progressed. A cleaning today is a fraction of the cost and discomfort of periodontal treatment down the line.
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.
