Keep Your Dream Smile With Routine Care

Your smile is one of your best assets! That’s why it’s so important to take care of it. You and your whole family will benefit from regular cleanings and exams, because only professional cleanings can remove the build up of plaque and tartar on your teeth and gums. In addition, our dental exams look for problems that you can’t see with the naked eye. Here’s what you can expect when you visit us:

  • Your regular cleaning and exam will usually take about an hour, unless it’s your first visit.
  • If you are seeing us for the first time, we create a mouth-map to track changes over time and address your oral care concerns and goals.
  • We use the latest equipment, including an intraoral camera so you can see what we see inside of your mouth and a DIAGNOdent electronic cavity detector to catch tooth decay in its earliest stages.
  • After a thorough exam, including a screening for oral cancer, we’ll take digital X-rays if needed. It’s a safer and more efficient way to examine problem areas in your mouth even further.
  • We may recommend preventive services like fluoride treatments and dental sealants to help prevent cavities.
  • We also offer two forms of sedation and computer-assisted anesthesia if you struggle with dental anxiety or just want to feel relaxed during your appointment.

Since we are a family dentist, you can schedule an appointment for your entire family. You can even bring your child in for your cleaning and exam so they can see how the whole process works and become comfortable with it before their own visits.

Dr. Hanna has over 30 years of experience caring for patients, and providing cleanings and exams in Kalamazoo. Maintain the health of your smile by calling us today at 269-349-3203.

FAQs

How long does a dental exam and cleaning take?
The time needed for these services will vary depending on several factors, including whether we’ve seen you before and what shape your smile is in. Typically, though, it won’t require more than an hour. It will be time well spent, as your teeth will look and feel great!
To keep your teeth and gums in the best possible shape, we recommend visiting our office every six months for dental cleanings and exams. This allows our team to remove bacteria-filled plaque before it can cause any serious problems. It also enables us to find issues like cavities and gum disease in their earliest stages, when they are easiest to treat.
Your dental hygienist will inspect your teeth and gums for any signs of problems. We may also take a set of X-rays depending on your needs. Then we will clean and polish each of your teeth until they shine. Your dentist will come in later and perform a complete dental exam, paying special attention to any problem areas noted by your hygienist. Finally, we’ll recommend any needed treatments to improve your oral health.
