Dental cleanings and exams are essential for maintaining a healthy mouth. During a dental exam, our dentist will check for any signs of tooth decay, gum disease, and other oral health issues. Professional dental cleanings involve removing plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth and gum line. These regular dental cleanings help to prevent periodontal disease and keep your teeth and gums healthy. The American Dental Association recommends having dental cleanings and exams twice a year.
Dental cleanings and exams are not just about keeping your teeth clean; they are vital for detecting potential problems early. By catching issues like tooth decay or gum disease early, we can prevent more severe problems down the line. Our thorough preventive exams also include oral cancer screenings to ensure your complete oral health. Regular visits to Maple Park Dental Care help maintain existing tooth restorations and keep your smile looking its best.
At Maple Park Dental Care we offer different types of dental cleanings and exams to suit your needs. Each is designed to cover different areas of your oral health.
For patients with healthy gums. Our hygienist will remove plaque and tartar from the surface of your teeth and along the gum line and then polish your teeth to give you a shiny smile.
For patients with gum disease. Deep cleanings are required. This involves cleaning below the gum line and smoothing out the tooth and root surfaces to remove bacteria and promote healing.
After periodontal treatment, these cleanings are necessary to prevent gum disease from coming back. More frequent visits and targeted cleaning techniques.
As part of our comprehensive dental exams, these screenings help detect early signs of oral cancer, significantly improving treatment outcomes.
Cleanings and exams have benefits beyond a pretty smile. They are essential for your overall health and well-being.

You should brush your teeth at least twice a day, especially before bed, using a soft-bristle toothbrush and an ADA-approved toothpaste. For the best results:
Electric toothbrushes are also recommended as they can efficiently remove plaque by simply guiding the brush while it works on multiple teeth at a time.
You should floss daily to remove plaque and food particles between your teeth and under the gumline, where a toothbrush can’t reach. Follow these steps for effective flossing:
If you find regular floss difficult to use, floss holders are a helpful alternative.
