Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Cleanings and Exams
What happens during a dental exam and cleaning?
Your visit starts with a comfortable, private setting where we review your health and dental history. We use digital X-rays and intraoral cameras to get a clear, full view of your teeth and jaw. Your hygienist then gently removes plaque and tartar buildup during the cleaning. We'll check for signs of decay, gum disease, or other concerns, and your dentist will discuss any next steps.
Do dental cleanings hurt?
Dental cleanings should not be painful. You usually feel only mild pressure or tickling during the cleaning process. If your gums are sensitive or inflamed, you may feel a bit of tenderness, but we're always gentle. We also offer blankets, pillows, and calming amenities to help you relax. If you're nervous about discomfort, let us know. We'll talk you through every step and adjust your care to keep you at ease.
