FAQs

How often should I have a dental cleaning?

Most patients benefit from professional cleanings every six months. However, if you have gum disease or other oral health concerns, we may recommend more frequent visits to maintain your oral health and overall health.

Are dental X-rays safe?

Yes, our digital X-rays use minimal radiation while providing detailed images that help us detect potential problems early. Digital technology reduces radiation exposure by up to 90% compared to traditional X-rays.

What happens during an oral cancer screening?

We perform a thorough visual and physical examination of your mouth, throat, and surrounding areas, looking for any suspicious changes or abnormalities. Early detection is key for successful treatment.

Do I really need fluoride treatments?

Fluoride treatments help strengthen tooth enamel and prevent decay. While beneficial for all ages, they're especially important for patients at higher risk for cavities, those with sensitive teeth, or those on medications that cause dry mouth.

How do I know if I need a night guard?

You may benefit from a night guard if you experience jaw pain, headaches, or worn teeth. We can evaluate your symptoms and recommend appropriate protection.
