Teeth Cleaning

A Registered Dental Hygienist will remove all the plaque and tartar that has built up on the surface of your teeth, gum line, and hard to reach areas of your mouth. Dental cleanings are a regular part of any excellent oral hygiene program.

You can expect:

Plaque removal - removal of bacteria deposits that cause gum disease and cavities
Tartar removal - removal hard plaque deposits that cause tooth discoloration and cannot be removed through regular brushing and flossing
Teeth polishing - to get rid of any blemish on your teeth surface

Dental Exam

This is similar to a standard medical check as they both are preventive measures aimed at helping you stay healthy. Your oral health is connected to your general health. For instance, studies have shown that periodontal disease may aggravate diabetes and cardiovascular diseases; pregnancy can lead to increased risk of cavities, periodontal disease, and tooth loss; and stress may lead to dry mouth syndrome or TMJ.

A dental exam from a biological dentist like Dr. Villarreal is the best way to detect any oral problems in their early stages, and introduce an appropriate treatment to keep them from developing into major problems that adversely affect your general health and increase your treatment costs.

Dental Exams for Children

Even young children can benefit from a dental exam, as soon as they have 4 teeth in their mouth. Dr. Villarreal will teach you how to care for your child’s teeth and mouth. Toddlers and older children can be taught about proper brushing and flossing techniques, reinforcing the importance of dental care and oral hygiene in their life.

Typical Dental Exams Involve:

Checking for stains on your teeth
Assessing your risk of tooth decay and gum disease
Diagnostic x-rays to check for tooth decay, cysts, tumors, tooth position, and bone loss
Checking the condition and fit of any restorations or prosthetic replacements - veneers, dentures, implants, crowns, bridges
Assessing your entire mouth - lips, cheeks, roof and floor of the mouth, jaw, neck for any problems
Checking for oral cancer

A dental exam and professional cleaning takes less than one hour. Depending on the results of the exam, Dr. Villarreal will recommend an appropriate date for your next dental appointment, which could be in six months, or earlier or later. If dental treatment is necessary, you will need to schedule a meeting as soon as possible.
