Dental Exams & Cleanings

At Sapphire Dental Home, we understand that preserving top-notch dental hygiene extends beyond daily brushing and flossing. Tartar buildup, a hardened form of plaque, is a common concern. Only a professional cleaning by a registered hygienist ensures safe tartar removal. Furthermore, regular dental exams offer valuable insights into your overall dental and oral health, enabling early intervention to prevent any potential complications from escalating.

Why are Dental Exams & Cleaning Necessary?

Even with thorough brushing, professional cleanings provide extra advantages. Equally essential are exams, which allow for the early identification of minor concerns, simplifying and enhancing treatment effectiveness. Consistent cleanings also play a crucial role in averting gum disease and tooth decay. Embracing routine preventative care is always a wise choice to prioritize the health of your smile, no matter the stage.

How frequently should you schedule dental exams & cleanings?

Dr. Kaur recommends regular visits to our office every six months to uphold peak dental health. It’s advisable to schedule your child’s initial appointment at the earliest opportunity. No matter the gap since your last cleaning, it’s always the right time to prioritize the well-being of your smile. Our approach to care is welcoming and laid-back, free from any judgment.
