At White Oak Dental, dental exams and cleanings focus on preventive care and the ongoing maintenance of oral health. Regular visits help manage plaque and tartar buildup, support gum health, and allow for early identification of changes that may affect your oral health over time.
Dental cleanings work alongside routine dental examinations to support long-term oral health. These appointments complement your at-home brushing and flossing routine and help maintain comfort and cleanliness between visits.
Dental exams and cleanings include professional hygiene care and clinical assessment. During your visit, one of our registered dental hygienists will focus on removing plaque and calculus from areas that cannot be fully cleaned at home, including above and below the gumline.
Teeth are polished to help reduce surface staining and create smoother tooth surfaces that are easier to maintain between visits. Your dentist will also examine your teeth, gums, and oral tissues to assess overall oral health and monitor for changes.
Personalized guidance may be provided to support daily oral hygiene habits and ongoing care at home.
