Check-Ups & Cleanings
One of the essential steps toward maintaining excellent oral health is regular dental check-ups and cleanings. Our practice offers comprehensive oral exams, routine dental cleanings, deep cleanings, and fluoride treatments when necessary. We aim to identify potential problems as early as possible and help keep your teeth and gums fresh and healthy. Having professional teeth cleaning near you at least twice a year is recommended. Dental cleanings can remove tartar, plaque, and small amounts of tooth decay that can’t be reached with a regular toothbrush.
Oral Cancer Screening
Here at Saddlestone Dental, oral cancer screenings are a routine part of oral exams. It is a quick and painless examination of areas along your gums, tongue, and other mouth tissues to determine any irregularities. Early detection of dental cancer can improve the chances of successful treatment. It is recommended that patients who do not use tobacco products have an oral cancer screening near you at least once a year, and patients who smoke or use other types of tobacco products should have at least two oral screenings per year.
