A hygiene visit typically includes plaque and tartar removal, polishing, a gum health check, and often X-rays and an oral cancer screening as part of your regular exam.
Routine cleanings are generally comfortable. Some sensitivity is possible if there’s a buildup of tartar or gum inflammation, but our hygienists work gently and can use numbing gel if needed.
Skipping cleanings allows plaque and tartar to build up, increasing your risk of cavities and gum disease, which can lead to more costly treatment later. Regular hygiene visits are the most affordable way to protect your smile.
