An Inside Look At Your Check-Up & Clean Appointment

Most people know the importance of scheduling regular dental check-ups and cleanings, but what exactly does that look like with us?

Checkups usually take about 30 minutes to 45 minutes to complete.

During your appointment, we can discuss your dental habits, as well as your lifestyle, and any concerns you may have. You’re then able to sit back and relax as your dentist in South Ripley cleans your teeth and removes the build-up of plaque and tartar.

It is recommended that you visit the dentist for a check-up and clean every 6-12 months, or as recommended by your dentist.
During a dental check-up and clean, your dentist will examine your teeth, gums, and mouth, looking for any signs of decay or disease. They may also take X-rays to check for any issues below the surface of your teeth. After the examination, your teeth will be professionally cleaned, including scaling to remove plaque and tartar and polishing to smooth the surface of your teeth.
A dental check-up and clean is generally not painful, and most patients experience only mild discomfort during the procedure. However, if you have sensitive teeth or gums, or if you experience pain during the procedure, let your dentist know and they can take steps to make you more comfortable.
Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, floss daily, and limit sugary snacks and drinks. Regular dental visits and good habits at home help keep your teeth and gums healthy.
Most private health insurance plans with extras cover part or all of a check-up and clean. However, we recommend that you check with your provider for the specifics of your coverage.

Teeth cleaning can clear surface plaque and enhance the appearance of your teeth, but it is not a whitening treatment. For more noticeable whitening results, consider professional teeth whitening options.

Yes, but it’s best to wait 30 minutes if you’ve had a fluoride treatment.
