Start Here.
Dental cleanings and checkups are preventative measures designed to keep your teeth and gums healthy. During a cleaning, our skilled hygienists remove plaque, tartar, and bacteria that daily brushing cannot fully eliminate.
Checkups involve a detailed examination by your dentist to detect any potential issues early. Appointments typically take 45 minutes to an hour — and we recommend coming every six months.
