What to Expect During Your Dental Cleaning

Our team is dedicated to your health, comfort, and satisfaction, which is why we’ll take the time to understand any concerns you may have before beginning your dental cleaning. Once you’re ready, your cleaning will begin with a dental hygienist inspecting your mouth to check for inflammation, cavities, or other concerns. They will then remove plaque and tartar from around your gum line and between your teeth.  

After the plaque and tartar has been removed, the dental hygienist will brush your teeth with a special tooth paste and brushing tool. Your teeth will then be professionally flossed in order to reach areas you may not be able to when flossing at home, ensuring no plaque or toothpaste is left behind.

Lastly, you’ll receive a gentle fluoride treatment to help protect your mouth and fight against cavities. You may be asked to make another appointment if the dentist finds any issues that require additional care, but you can easily book that visit before leaving. With your dental cleaning over, you’ll be left with a brighter, healthier smile you’ll love to show off as often as possible.

Receive an Oral Cancer Screening as Part of Your Dental Cleaning

With Brickyard Dental Group, you can feel completely confident in your oral health knowing that our doctors screen for oral cancer during each routine dental visit. This screening, which is an examination performed by a dentist to look for signs of cancer or precancerous conditions in your mouth, is a part of your new patient exam and checkup, so there is no additional fee for this screening examination. The goal of an oral cancer screening is to identify mouth cancer early when there is a greater chance for a cure.
