The Importance of Preventive Care

Gentle Cleanings

A member of our fabulous hygiene team will gently remove any plaque or tartar from your teeth using specialized tools. This is done to prevent periodontal (gum) disease and improve your oral health. Next, your hygienist will brush, floss, and polish your teeth to remove surface stains and clear debris from those hard-to-reach areas between your teeth. 

Dental Exam

Dr. Walford will perform a comprehensive exam to check for signs of tooth decay, gum disease, injury, infection, and oral cancer. Throughout your comprehensive dental exam, Dr. Walford will keep you informed, using language that you will understand. You will be given the opportunity to ask questions, raise concerns and receive any necessary resources to help you with aftercare. Educating our patients, we believe, is an integral part of our service.

Digital Diagnostics

As part of your preventive visit, we will assess your smile using the latest in cleaning, X-ray, digital, and laser technologies. Our technicians will use the latest modern tools to check for signs of concern both above and below the gum line, especially in those hard-to-reach areas of the mouth. Due to the thoroughness of the exam, we are confident that you will always receive the best treatments at a time when they will benefit you the most.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do dental cleanings work?

During a professional dental cleaning, the dentist or hygienist will use specialized tools to gently remove plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth and along your gum line. They may also floss between each tooth before polishing them with special instruments that help make them feel smooth and shiny. In some cases, they might also apply fluoride treatments to strengthen enamel and protect against tooth decay. 

Does insurance cover dental cleanings?

Most dental insurance plans will cover all or part of the cost of routine preventive care, such as professional teeth cleanings and exams. Many plans also include coverage for additional treatments such as X-rays or fluoride treatments when necessary. Check with your insurance provider for specific coverage details related to your plan. 

How often should I see the dentist?

The American Dental Association recommends that adult patients visit their dentist at least twice a year for regular check-ups and professional teeth cleanings. However, depending on your oral health needs and risk factors, your dentist may recommend more frequent visits. For instance, if you are at an increased risk of cavities or gum disease or have other oral health issues, you may need to visit the dentist more regularly for evaluations and cleanings. 

Do dental cleanings hurt?

Generally, a dental cleaning shouldn't cause pain or discomfort. During a cleaning, the dentist or hygienist may use a specialized tool to scrape away any tartar buildup on your teeth and along your gum line. This process may cause a slight sensation due to the pressure applied to your teeth, but it should not be uncomfortable or painful. If you experience pain during a cleaning, tell your dentist right away.
