Teeth Cleaning

If you haven’t stopped by to visit your 2thbar dentist in a while, you may be due for a professional teeth cleaning and exam. Teeth cleaning is an essential routine procedure that supports your oral health. To ensure that any new health concerns are taken into account, Dr. B will go over your medical records and perform a visual and physical exam of your mouth to check for signs of oral cancer. A hygienist also professionally cleans your teeth. Regular cleanings and exams can ensure your mouth is in its best shape.

X-Rays

X-rays assist your 2thbar dentist with identifying any oral health concerns that may not be obvious to the naked eye. If you are brand new to our practice or it’s been a while since your last full series, you may need to have full mouth X-rays for your dental provider to have a comprehensive view of your overall oral health.

When determining how frequently you should receive X-rays, keep the following factors in mind:

  • Age
  • Current dental health
  • Signs of disease
  • Disease risk factors
  • Oral discomfort

Periodontal Probing

Your 2thbar dental provider will examine your gums and conduct periodontal probing, which is when Dr. B uses a special probe to measure your gum tissue depth.

Are Teeth Cleanings and Exams Necessary?

Even if you brush and floss daily, professional cleanings and exams can help Dr. B quickly diagnose any issues.

How Often Should I Have Professional Cleanings and Exams?

2thbar by Dr. B in Lone Tree Some patients only require two of these appointments per year. Others may need fewer or more frequent visits. If your gums and teeth are in great shape, you may not have to go as often. If you are at high risk for oral disease, Dr. B may recommend a more regular schedule.

With regular cleanings, periodontal probing, and examinations, as well as a great relationship with your 2thbar dentist who will address all of your concerns, your smile is sure to remain healthy.

2thbar by Dr. B in Lone Tree There are a number of reasons why you should visit 2thbar regularly, including the fact that prevention is always preferable to needing a cure.

Digital X-Rays

When detecting damage and disease that may not be visible to the eye, Dr. B may recommend an X-ray. Dental X-rays are safe and reliable diagnostic tools. However, the frequency with which you receive X-rays depends on your unique health factors, such as pregnancy.

Dental X-rays require minimal radiation but advances in X-Ray equipment and techniques help ensure the body is only exposed to the lowest amount of radiation possible.

Intra-Oral Camera

To see what your 2thbar dentist sees, including issues with your teeth and gums such as inflammation, Dr. B may use an intraoral camera, which creates precise images of your teeth and their supporting tissues.

Aside from patient education, what are other advantages of taking intra-oral pictures?

  1. Oral cancer screening
    Using an intraoral camera helps to establish a baseline of soft tissue lesions and to evaluate for any changes over time that may necessitate referral to an oral surgeon for oral cancer evaluation and treatment.
  2. True to shade images
    Detailed and precise images help capture the contours of the teeth. This helps us create natural-looking restorations.
  3. Increased acceptance of predeterminations and claims for insurance
    Submitting intraoral images with dental insurance claims and predeterminations increases the chances of acceptance and decreases your out-of-pocket patient costs.
  4. Real-life capture and monitoring of dental conditions
    Intraoral cameras are designed to capture the most subtle contrasts and details possible. Referrals to specialists can be made to include high-quality images.
