Regular exams are an important part of maintaining your oral health. During your regular exam, we will:

• Check for any problems that you may not see or feel

• Look for cavities or any other signs of tooth decay

• Inspect your teeth and gums for gingivitis and signs of periodontal disease

• Perform a thorough teeth cleaning
   

Your regular exam will take about 60 minutes. Each regular exam includes a detailed teeth cleaning, in which we will clean, polish, and rinse your teeth to remove any tartar and plaque that have built up on the tooth's surface.

Dogwood Family Dental loves to see patients of all ages and in fact the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends thats a child should have their first dental visit before their first birthday.
Visiting our office every six months gives you the chance to talk to the doctor about any questions you may have about your oral health. Regular exams are offered by appointment only, so please contact our practice today to schedule your next dental exam and teeth cleaning.
