We first begin the appointment with a cleaning that is done by a licensed and registered dental hygienist. The hygienist works to clean your teeth of any tartar and stains before flossing and polishing them. We then check your gums for any signs of gum disease or gingivitis and can offer treatment if it’s found. Next, Dr. Taube will perform the exam to check for cavities, problematic restorations, cracks and breaks as well as oral cancer. The entire appointment takes less than an hour and is vital to keeping up with the health of your smile.
If you think you might need an exam and cleaning, call us today and our staff members will be happy to further assist you.
