What Do These Visits Include?

A preventive visit combines a professional cleaning with a comprehensive checkup. Your hygienist removes plaque and tartar above and below the gumline, polishes away surface stains, and reviews daily hygiene tips tailored to your mouth. Dr. Oliveira then evaluates your teeth, gums, bite, and jaw joints, checks previous restorations, and screens for oral cancer. When appropriate, low-dose digital x-rays or photos help us see areas between teeth and beneath the surface.

Who Needs Preventive Visits—and How Often?

Most people benefit from care every six months. Patients with gum inflammation, a history of periodontal disease, orthodontic appliances, dry mouth, or medical conditions such as diabetes may need visits every 5–6 months. We personalize your interval based on current health, risk factors, and lifestyle so you maintain strong teeth and a stable, comfortable bite.

Benefits of Dental Cleanings and Exams

  • Early detection: identify cavities, cracks, and gum issues before they progress.

  • Healthier gums: tartar removal helps calm inflammation and stop bleeding.

  • Fresher breath and brighter polish: reduce odor-causing buildup and surface stains.

  • Lower long-term costs: preventing problems is almost always less expensive than treating them later.

  • Whole-health support: oral screenings can reveal signs of systemic conditions that warrant a medical check.

What to Expect at Your Appointment

Check-in and Review — We discuss your goals, medical history, and any concerns like sensitivity or clenching.
Gentle Cleaning — Your hygienist uses precise instruments to remove buildup carefully and comfortably, then polishes for a smooth finish.
Assessment — Periodontal measurements check gum health; Dr. Oliveira examines teeth, bite, and soft tissues.
Imaging (as needed) — Digital x-rays or photos provide a clear view of hidden areas and help us monitor changes over time.
Personalized Plan — You’ll leave with clear next steps, from simple home tweaks to any recommended care.

Technology and Comfort

We pair modern tools with a calm, boutique environment. Low-dose imaging, magnification, and high-quality polish pastes improve accuracy and comfort. If you’re anxious, we’ll pace the visit, explain each step, and offer comfort options. Many patients find these touches transform routine care into a genuinely pleasant experience.

Aftercare and Home Habits

For lasting results, brush twice daily with a soft brush and fluoride toothpaste, clean between teeth with floss or interdental aids, and consider a therapeutic rinse if recommended. Limit frequent sipping of sugary or acidic drinks, stay hydrated, and wear a nightguard if you clench. Small, consistent habits make the biggest difference between visits.

Care for Kids, Adults and Seniors

Kids learn gentle techniques and may benefit from fluoride or sealants to protect grooves that trap plaque.
Adults often focus on gum health, sensitivity control, and managing clenching or wear patterns.
Seniors may need extra attention for dry mouth, medication-related changes, and maintaining existing crowns, bridges, or implants. Our guidance adapts as your needs change so care stays practical and effective at every age.
