Why dental examinations and cleanings are so important for oral health 

Our team at The Dental Studio in Flower Mound, Texas, encourages patients to visit the office every six months for a deep cleaning of their teeth and a thorough evaluation with Dr. Yasi Sabour. Preventative care is critical to keeping the smile healthy, and oral prophylaxis and a physical exam with our team can catch any problems early and allow us to intervene when needed.

What happens during a routine dental examination and cleaning?

At The Dental Studio, Dr. Yasi Sabour works alongside patients to educate them on what to expect when they arrive at our office for quality care. During regular evaluations and cleanings, also known as oral prophylaxis, patients can plan to:

• Have their teeth examined for cavities and other signs of oral disease or damage, including an assessment of the gums to check for gum inflammation, recession, or infection?
• Receive a professional dental cleaning that ensures heavy tartar removal and plaque buildup from all of the surfaces of your natural teeth and along your gum line. This helps prevent common dental issues such as tooth decay and gum disease.
• Undergo a full mouth x-ray if necessary for a comprehensive exam. Dental X-rays provide valuable insight into the overall health of teeth, gums, jaw, and other areas in the mouth that cannot be seen during a visual dental examination.
• Ask questions about proper oral hygiene and nutrition.
• Discuss any cosmetic dentistry options available to improve the appearance of teeth.
• Talk about changes in their oral health habits that can help maintain a healthy smile for years!
