At OC Perfect Smile, we recommend scheduling a dental check-up and cleaning at least every six months to maintain optimal oral health. These routine visits are essential not only for keeping your teeth clean but also for preventing dental issues before they become more serious—and more expensive—to treat.
Why Every 6 Months?
Even with excellent brushing and flossing habits, plaque and tartar can build up in hard-to-reach areas. A professional cleaning removes these deposits, helping to prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. In addition, regular exams allow us to catch early signs of decay, infection, or other oral conditions before they progress.
What’s Included in Your Visit:
- Comprehensive Oral Examination: We check for cavities, gum health, bite alignment, and screen for oral cancer.
- Professional Cleaning: We gently remove plaque and tartar, polish your teeth, and may apply fluoride if needed.
- Digital X-Rays (if necessary): To get a full picture of your oral health, we may take X-rays to check between teeth, under fillings, and inside the bone. These are only done when clinically indicated—never routine or excessive.
Safe and Modern X-Ray Technology
Our office uses a state-of-the-art handheld X-ray system, which emits minimal radiation—so low, in fact, that a lead apron is typically not even required. This technology is not only safer but also faster and more comfortable for our patients.
