What Is a Dental Cleaning?

A dental cleaning is a professional procedure performed by our skilled hygienists to remove plaque, tartar, and stains from your teeth. Even with excellent at-home brushing and flossing, certain areas can be difficult to clean, making professional cleanings essential.

What Happens During a Dental Exam?

During your dental exam, our experienced dentists will:

Check for Cavities and Decay: Using advanced tools, we identify early signs of tooth decay.
Assess Gum Health: We examine your gums for signs of gum disease.
Screen for Oral Cancer: A quick but thorough screening ensures any potential issues are caught early.
Evaluate Overall Oral Health: We review your bite, jaw, and any restorations like crowns or fillings.

How Often Should You Schedule Cleanings and Exams?

For most patients, we recommend visiting Brightside Dental Care every six months for a cleaning and exam. However, patients with specific conditions, such as gum disease, may require more frequent visits.¹
