Dental Exams and Cleanings: More Than Just a Quick Polish
Dental exams and cleanings at West Chester Dental Arts offer more than a once-over. When you visit us, the dentist carefully examines your teeth, gums, jaw, and bite. Using the latest technology, the doctor checks for signs of decay, infection, gum disease, and even oral cancer. Every visit lets us spot potential issues early and protect your long-term health.
During your cleaning, our skilled hygienists remove plaque and tartar with gentle tools and a practiced hand. We polish each tooth to a shine and finish with a fluoride treatment when necessary. You’ll leave with a fresh mouth and the peace of mind from expert care.
What We Check During a Dental Exam
Think of your dental exam as a full systems check. We give you a complete picture of your oral health and create a plan to keep everything on track.
Here’s what we cover every time you sit in our chair:
- Tooth decay and cavities
- Gum inflammation and gum disease
- Oral cancer screening
- Alignment and bite issues
- Wear and tear on crowns, fillings, or dental work
- Signs of teeth grinding or jaw clenching
- X-rays to reveal hidden problems
Say Goodbye to Lecture-Style Appointments
We don’t believe in lecturing patients or rushing through checkups. Instead, we create a relaxed, informative atmosphere where you feel comfortable asking questions. Dr. Fort or Dr. Kim will walk you through what they see and why it matters. We want you to leave knowing more than just your next appointment date—we want you to understand your health.
Our staff greets you by name, listens to your concerns, and tailors each visit to your needs. Are you nervous about visiting the dentist? Let us know. We’ve got solutions for dental anxiety and are great at helping even the most hesitant patients feel right at home.
Reasons to Never Skip a Dental Cleaning Again
Skipping your cleaning might seem harmless, but it can have unpleasant consequences. Here’s what regular cleanings help prevent:
- Gum disease can lead to tooth loss
- Cavities that require fillings or root canals
- Bad breath that sticks around no matter how much gum you chew
- Tartar buildup that brushing alone can’t fix
- Costly dental procedures
You protect your smile and wallet by staying on schedule with cleanings.
Dental Exams and Cleanings that Feel Like a Fresh Start
Life gets busy. We get it. But taking an hour twice a year for a dental exam and cleaning can make all the difference. Our patients often say they leave feeling better than when they arrived—not just physically, but mentally too. Something is refreshing about that clean-mouth feeling.
We make every visit count. Whether you come in for a basic checkup or are concerned, we approach your care with the same high standards. Our dentists work hard to stay ahead of the latest techniques and technology, so you always receive the best.
