Contact UsHow often do I need a cleaning and exam?
The American Dental Association recommends getting a dental exam and cleaning every six months, or twice a year. However, if you’re at high risk for cavities, gum disease, or have poor oral health history, Dr. Beauchamp may recommend more frequent dental check-ups and cleanings. Keeping up with these routine dental visits helps eliminate plaque and tartar that can prevent a healthy smile and is a chance to address other dental issues.
What should I expect in my dental cleaning and exam?
During a routine dental exam and cleaning, you can expect a thorough cleaning of your teeth with our dental hygienist to remove plaque and tartar buildup. Once the plaque and tartar have been removed, our hygienist will polish your teeth with a gritty paste and floss them. Dr. Beauchamp will then take a thorough look at your teeth, gums, and throat to identify and address any problems or concerns discovered. You can also receive fluoride treatment for extra powerful cleaning during this visit.
