Children’s Check-ups & Cleanings

With regular check-ups and cleanings, your dentist can ensure healthy and happy smiles. It is recommended for all patients to schedule a routine six-month check-up exam. Your dentist will screen your child’s mouth for tooth decay and gum disease. Regular professional dental cleanings are essential for a healthy mouth. During your child’s dental cleaning, they will gently remove any buildup of plaque or tartar.

Book Your Visit

Keep your smile beautiful.

It is recommended by the ADA that everyone should visit the dentist at least twice per year to ensure optimal oral health. Your dental team will consistently provide you with high-quality professional dental cleanings and thorough preventive exams. The purpose of a teeth cleaning is to rid the teeth of harmful build-up of plaque and stains that may prevent a healthy smile.

During cleanings your dentist will:

  • Remove tartar build-up on your teeth
  • Remove plaque
  • Perform teeth polishing to help remove light surface stains and prevent plaque from easily reattaching to your teeth

Regular professional dental cleanings and exams are essential for attaining a healthy mouth.

Your dentist can help clean surfaces of your teeth that you may have missed during brushing and flossing.

During your appointment, he or she will also:

  • Evaluate your overall health and oral hygiene
  • Check your bite and jaw for any problems
  • Evaluate your risk of tooth decay and gum or bone disease
  • Evaluate existing tooth restorations
  • Screen for oral cancer
  • Take dental x-rays if necessary

Frequently Asked Questions

At what age should my child first see a dentist?

The ADA recommends that your child’s first dental visit should occur within six months of their first tooth erupting or by their first birthday. Early visits help establish a dental home and allow the dentist to monitor your child’s oral development.

How often should my child have dental check-ups?

Children should have dental check-ups every six months to ensure their teeth and gums remain healthy. Regular visits help prevent cavities, catch issues early, and provide ongoing education for maintaining good oral hygiene.
