Regular Exams and Cleanings
Regular exams are an important part of maintaining your oral health. During your regular exam, Dr. Drake 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
- Provide a thorough teeth cleaning
Your regular exam can take anywhere from 20 minutes to 40 minutes. Each regular exam includes a detailed teeth cleaning, in which Dr. Drake will clean, polish, and rinse your teeth to remove any tartar and plaque that has built up on the tooth’s surface.
