Exams & Cleanings

Regular cleanings and exam are very important to maintaining good oral health and aids in preventing tooth decay and gum disease.

Our team wants to help your child learn how to take care of their teeth. We want your children to have healthy teeth for life.

Depending on your child’s age, a cleaning will be completed in a knee to knee position or in the dental chair. This is an interactive cleaning, so your child can ask questions and our team will help make sure your child is shown the proper way to brush and floss.

X-rays will be taken as needed during these visits. We take many safety measures to ensure your child is exposed to the least amount of radiation possible. If you have any questions or concerns, let our team know.

Dr. Mari will finish the visit by examining your child’s mouth and reviewing the information gathered during the appointment. She will take time to discuss any problems or concerns that were found during the visit. 

We recommend cleanings and exams every 6 months. Starting this routine early in a child’s life, with our specialized care, can help you and your child establish good dental habits for a lifetime.
