Get whiter, brighter, healthier teeth with regular dental exams from Healthy Smiles Dental Care of Lansing. Regular exams will not only improve your appearance, but they will also protect your teeth and gums from preventable conditions like cavities and gum disease.
Regular dental checkups are your best defense against costly and painful oral health problems that could be easily missed at home. Visiting us for your semi-annual exam and cleaning will not just help you get cleaner, whiter teeth, but it will also help protect you against any problems that you may not even realize are developing in your mouth. If your dentist does spot an issue, we can help treat it before it gets worse, sparing you unnecessary pain and expense further down the road.
When you arrive at your checkup, you will be escorted to the exam room to be evaluated. You may require X-rays if you have not had them taken this year. Your dentist will then provide a thorough examination and review of your X-rays. Once completed, you will receive a clean bill of health, or you will be prescribed a necessary treatment.
Once your imaging is complete, your teeth will be cleaned with a special dental tool called a scaler, and then polished with brush and paste so they sparkle and shine! During your cleaning, feel free to sit back, relax and let our dental team take care of everything. Once your smile is clean and bright, your mouth will be rinsed, and your dentist will perform an exam on your newly spotless teeth.
