A routine cleaning and checkup does more than polish your teeth — it's the visit most likely to catch a problem while it's still small and inexpensive to fix. A hygienist removes plaque and tartar buildup brushing alone can't reach, especially below the gumline. The exam that follows checks for cavities, gum disease, and early signs like enamel wear or oral cancer.
Bitewing X-rays catch cavities forming between teeth long before they'd be visible or symptomatic. Most insurance plans cover two cleanings a year, which lines up with how quickly plaque hardens back into tartar.
The consequences of skipped cleanings compound slowly, which is part of why the damage often isn't noticed until it's already progressed. A cleaning today is a fraction of the cost and discomfort of periodontal treatment down the line.
Pocket depths around each tooth are measured to catch gum disease early.
Bitewing imaging catches between-teeth decay invisible to a visual exam.
Early detection is built into the routine checkup, not an optional add-on.
Extra cavity protection is available in the same appointment when recommended.
Our network specialists cover the full range of this procedure, from the routine case to the complicated one.

Twice a year is standard, though some with gum disease need more frequent visits.
Frequency depends on your cavity risk and how recently prior X-rays were taken.
Deep cleaning is recommended specifically when pocket depths indicate early periodontal disease.
This is commonly gingivitis, typically reversible with a cleaning and improved daily flossing.
