Check-Up & Clean
Dental Hygiene
While good dental hygiene, such as regular toothbrushing and flossing, is imperative to maintaining oral health, it’s crucial that we still have our teeth, gums, and mouth regularly checked and cleaned by a professional.
During regular check-ups, our dentists and hygienists don’t only clean the areas of our mouth that we can’t reach on our own; they also spot potential problems. Dental issues left unchecked can develop into diseases that require more complex dental treatment procedures.
A regular check-up and cleaning visit at Curran Dental will detect tartar and plaque build-up, small cavities, and tooth decay early.
A routine 6 month check-up will normally include
A comprehensive dental examination
Gum health check
X-rays to detect signs of decay
A professional scale and clean
A fluoride treatment to reduce risk of cavities
Regular Cleanings are Essential for Maintaining Healthy Teeth
Tartar Removal: Even with regular brushing and flossing, tartar can build up on your teeth and cause gum disease. Our dental cleanings remove tartar and plaque buildup to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
Fresher Breath: Bad breath can be caused by bacteria in your mouth. A dental cleaning can help remove those bacteria and give you fresher breath.
Oral Cancer Screening: During your cleaning, we also perform an oral cancer screening to catch any potential issues early on.
