Dental Checkups and Teeth Cleanings – Fort Worth, TX

All too often, patients assume that biannual dental visits are optional. That’s not the case! To begin, routine dental cleanings give our dental hygienists a chance to remove plaque and tartar buildup, reducing your risk of major dental issues down the line. The exam, on the other hand, ensures that Dr. Corbitt catches oral cancer, tooth decay, gum disease, and any other health problems that do arise in the early stages. So, if it has been more than six months since your last trip to our office, it’s time to get your next appointment on the calendar!

Why Are Regular Dental Checkups & Cleanings Important?

It’s no secret that preventive care is much easier on your wallet than restorative care. After all, plaque and tartar buildup are the leading causes of many dental concerns, including cavities. Not only that, but routine exams ensure that oral cancer and any other oral health problems that have developed under the radar are detected and treated right away. To put it simply, a little prevention goes a long way, so it’s important that you come to our office every six months for a dental checkup and cleaning.

What to Expect During a Dental Checkup

During your visit with Dr. Corbitt, she will:

• Review your latest dental X-rays to check for oral health concerns that cannot be seen above the gumline.

• Complete a visual exam, looking for signs of gum disease and tooth decay in the process.

• Take a look at any existing dental work, like fillings, crowns, and bridges
• Create a personalized dental treatment plan for the future.

Oral cancer screenings can also be performed during your scheduled appointment. All patients should undergo regular screenings for early detection since this increases their chances of survival if any abnormalities are found.

What to Expect During a Dental Cleaning

Your dental cleaning will be performed by one of our dedicated, experienced, and gentle dental hygienists. First, they will carefully and meticulously remove plaque and tartar that has formed on teeth. Then, they will polish, floss, and rinse your teeth. If fluoride treatments or dental sealants are needed, then we will do that before you leave as well!
