Cleanings & Exams
Routine cleanings and comprehensive exams for kids, adults, and seniors — the foundation of a healthy smile.
Routine cleanings and exams are the simplest, most effective way to keep your smile healthy for the long haul. At Bright Smile Dental, we recommend a checkup every six months for most patients — though we'll tailor that schedule to your specific needs.
What's included
- Comprehensive exam. We check your teeth, gums, bite, and soft tissues, and screen for early signs of decay, gum disease, and oral cancer.
- Professional cleaning. Our hygienists gently remove plaque and tartar buildup that brushing and flossing can miss, then polish your teeth to a smooth finish.
- Digital X-rays as needed. Low-radiation imaging helps us see between teeth and below the gumline.
- Personalized recommendations. We'll show you what we see and walk you through any next steps in plain language.
Family-friendly
We see kids, teens, adults, and seniors in the same practice — so the whole household can be cared for under one roof, often in back-to-back appointments.
Common questions
How often should I come in for a cleaning?
For most patients, we recommend a cleaning and exam every six months. If you have a history of gum disease or other risk factors, we may suggest a more frequent schedule — we'll talk it through with you at your visit.
