Cleanings/Checkups

Our checkup/cleaning visit includes a soft tissue examination, scaling and polishing, necessary x-rays, fluoride treatment, oral hygiene instruction, dental development evaluation, dietary and nutritional counseling, and patient/parent education.

As a parent, if you would like to remain with your child, we encourage it.  We teach you and your child how to best care for their teeth, advise you on eating habits and answer any specific questions you may have. We explain the cause of cavities, what you can do to prevent them and how your children can help fight gum and tooth disease by brushing properly. All information is provided in an age appropriate manner to help nurture and encourage your child.

Our check up appointments encompass more than “just a cleaning.” We view each check up as an opportunity to provide you and your child the tools your family needs to remain cavity free.
