Common Questions About General Dentistry

How often should I visit the dentist for a checkup?

You will benefit from visiting us every six months for regular exams and cleanings. This schedule allows us to catch any potential issues early before they become bigger problems. If you have gum disease or other concerns, you might need more frequent visits, such as every three to four months. Your dentist will recommend the right schedule based on your specific oral health needs.

Are dental X-rays safe?

Yes, our digital X-rays use very low radiation levels that are considered completely safe for both adults and children. We use protective equipment like lead aprons to further minimize your exposure during the process. Digital X-rays provide us with essential information about your teeth and bone health that we can't see otherwise. We only take X-rays when necessary and follow all safety guidelines to protect your health.

What's the difference between a cleaning and a deep cleaning?

A regular cleaning focuses on removing plaque and tartar from the visible surfaces of your teeth and just below the gumline. A deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) reaches further below the gumline to clean bacteria and deposits from the tooth roots. Deep cleanings are typically recommended if you have signs of gum disease or deep pockets between teeth and gums. Your dentist might recommend local anesthesia to keep you comfortable during a deep cleaning procedure.
