Exams & Cleanings

Keep Your Smile Bright & Healthy with Regular Exams

A healthy smile starts with routine care. Regular visits to our office allow us to monitor your oral health, catch potential issues early, and prevent more serious problems down the road.

During your exam, we’ll not only clean your teeth but also perform a thorough check for signs of cavities, gum disease, and other concerns that might be developing. Our team will also guide you on the best ways to care for your teeth at home.

Whether you or your child are due for a routine checkup or need guidance on maintaining your oral health, our friendly team is here to provide the care you need. Book your appointment today and take the first step toward a lifetime of bright, healthy smiles!

How Often Should You Have Your Teeth Cleaned?

We recommend having your teeth professionally cleaned every 6 months. Regular cleanings not only remove harmful plaque and tartar but also allow us to monitor your oral health and catch any issues before they become bigger problems.

By sticking to this routine, we can help you avoid costly procedures and prioritize a lifetime of good oral health.

What to Expect at Your Cleaning Appointment

During your appointment, our skilled hygienists will clean your teeth by gently removing plaque and tartar buildup around the gum line. Afterward, we’ll polish and floss your teeth, leaving them feeling smooth and fresh.

In some cases, we may also apply a fluoride treatment to help strengthen your teeth and prevent decay.

If your dentist notices any areas that need attention during your exam, they’ll discuss the best course of action to address the issue, including fillings for cavities. We want you to feel fully informed and comfortable about any treatment options.

Dental Care for the Whole Family—Walk-Ins Welcome

Sunshine Dental is here for every member of your family. From your child’s first dental exam to more advanced care for adults.

At-Home Oral Care Tips

While regular dental exams are essential, maintaining a solid at-home oral care routine is just as important. Be sure to:

Brush your teeth at least twice a day for 2 minutes using a soft-bristled toothbrush.
Floss daily to remove food particles and plaque from between your teeth.
Clean your tongue to help prevent bad breath and bacteria buildup.
Use the right toothbrush, especially for children, for proper gum health.

Our digital dentistry tools help us provide quicker, more accurate diagnoses and treatments. We offer:
