Just about everyone thinks about maintaining a beautiful smile. In fact, an overwhelming number of Americans (99.7 percent) agree that a smile is an important social asset. It’s hard to overstate how much our smiles can impact our lives, either positively or negatively.
As one of our premier general dental services, cleanings and exams play a big role in the appearance of your smile. The American Dental Association recommends that you visit the dentist every six months for a checkup so your smile can stay in good shape.
The exam part of your checkup allows our dentist to evaluate your overall oral health. It will involve a comprehensive check of your teeth, gums, and mouth:
During your dental cleaning, our hygienist will carefully remove plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth. This process helps prevent gum disease and cavities. Your teeth will then be polished, leaving them smooth and shiny. Additionally, our hygienist will provide valuable tips and techniques for effective at-home oral hygiene.

I am always able to get in promptly, even with an unexpected dental problem. Dr Taylor knows my history well and always listens to my questions and concerns. She and her staff are highly professional, extremely knowledgeable, and able to deliver exceptional service using the latest technology. She earns my highest recommendation Update July 2025/January 2026 Dr Taylor and her staff continue to offer exemplary service. Most recently my hygienist Kara discovered a potential problem during my routine visit. She discussed it with Dr Taylor and I was able to receive prompt treatment! Thank you to Kara and the whole stsff for being so helpful. You’re yhe best! Catherine

Folks were welcoming,very helpful and did not keep me waiting. Cara explained each step of the evaluation and cleaning in detail and gave me a lot of good suggestions about my responsibilities. Above all, my appliances haven’t looked as clean in many years and w my mouth felt great !

I am 70 years old and I have always been afraid of the dentist until now. I have better strategies for dental care at home because my dental team makes time to explain good dental hygiene. My dentist enables me to observe, digitally, the tools and process to keep my mouth healthy. I am a participant in my dental care.

I appreciate the thorough discussions and explanations of what’s going on with my aging teeth. I always observe sincere, caring teamwork at my visits. I have recommended Dr Taylor and her team to many people!
Most of the time, a regular dental cleaning and exam will take about an hour. During this time, our team will take a set of X-rays if needed, thoroughly clean and polish all your teeth, and perform a complete dental exam. If you need additional work, such as a tooth filling or fluoride treatment, we’ll let you know and advise you of the extra time required.
If you wait until you are in pain, you already have a serious problem. On top of that, not all dental problems cause pain. By getting regular exams, you get the benefit of having dental professionals look at your mouth. We can identify potential problems or catch them in the early stages. That allows us to fix them before you may need expensive and invasive treatments.
In the skilled hands of hygienists and dentists at Taylor Dentistry, a cleaning shouldn’t hurt. Cleanings may be a bit uncomfortable if you haven’t had one in a while. That’s because we may have to apply more pressure than usual to remove the tartar buildup that has formed. We can use local anesthesia to make you more comfortable, and dental sedation is also available.
We Can’t Wait to See Your Smile!
