Cleanings & Checkups in Odenton, MD

A healthy smile does not happen by accident. It requires daily home oral care and ongoing routine visits to your dentist for cleanings and checkups. Our team at True Dental is dedicated to helping our patients achieve their best smiles through general dentistry that can help maintain a healthy smile. These regular visits help us catch any oral health issues early so we can provide the best care for our patients.

Cleanings are a vital part of preventive care. Even those who are diligent with brushing and flossing can have areas that do not get completely clean on their teeth. Small areas of tartar and bacteria buildup can lead to gum infection or decay. To maintain a healthy smile, most people should have at least two professional cleanings per year to remove any plaque or tartar from hard-to-reach areas. Our hygienist will also monitor your gums for signs of gingivitis or gum disease to begin proactive treatment if necessary.

Comprehensive Dental Exams

In addition to regular cleanings, checkups are necessary to inspect your teeth and gums for any possible problems. Even healthy teeth can have damage; a small crack in a tooth can be present without pain or discomfort, yet jeopardize the health of the tooth. During your comprehensive exam at True Dental, Dr. Jai Shin will carefully examine your teeth using digital x-rays and a physical inspection. We use intraoral cameras to give you a closer view of any issues we find to ensure you are informed and aware of any oral health issues you may have.

One of the best ways you can keep your smile healthy is through preventive care at home and with cleanings and checkups at your dentist. We hope you will choose True Dental as your source for excellent dental care for your family. Contact our friendly team today to schedule your next cleaning and checkup.
