Maintain a Gorgeous Grin With Our Treatment

At our dental practice, we aim to provide you with the highest level of care at each visit. Whether you’re here for a dental cleaning and exam or you’re getting all of your teeth replaced, you’ll receive the same outstanding care.

Our checkups are anything but routine. There are several reasons why they are a notch above that of a standard dental practice:

  • If you’re nervous about your care, we offer multiple options for sedation. We can also use a topical numbing gel to make your treatment more comfortable.
  • Your time with us will begin with a complete dental history, so we can get a good sense of your oral health.
  • Near-infrared imaging and digital X-rays provide detailed pictures of your tooth structure, bones, and nerves. These X-rays expose you to up to 90 percent less radiation than standard X-rays.
  • Your complete dental exam includes a screening for oral cancer.
  • Our hygienist will thoroughly clean and polish your teeth using ultrasonic equipment. It gets teeth clean with less scraping. You’ll leave our office with that fresh-from-the-dentist feeling.
  • Your dentist will lay out a treatment plan for any problems or recommended services, answering your questions fully so you have the information you need to make good decisions.

Call us today at 859-374-7114 for thorough dental cleanings and exams in Independence.

Common Questions About Dental Cleanings and Exams

How long does a dental exam and cleaning take?

The length of these services may vary a bit, depending on whether we take X-rays or provide any preventive services like dental sealants. Usually, though, we can complete an exam and cleaning in about an hour. You may need to allow more time if it’s been a long time since you’ve seen a dentist.

How soon after my cleaning can I eat?

There’s no reason to wait to eat after your cleaning. However, your teeth and gums may be a little sensitive. So, you may want to avoid extremely hot, cold, or acidic food and beverages for a few hours. Be sure to ask your dentist if you have any concerns about what you can eat or drink after your appointment.

Do dental cleanings hurt?

Dental cleanings involve the removal of plaque, tartar, and stains from your teeth using specialized tools. You may experience slight pressure or vibrations during the cleaning, but it should not be painful. If you have sensitive teeth or gums, your dental hygienist can adjust the cleaning technique to ensure your comfort. Regular dental cleanings are important for maintaining oral health and preventing more serious issues, so you should attend them regularly.
