At Pacific Dental Group, we are committed to helping you maintain a healthy, beautiful smile with personalized dental care. Our comprehensive dental checkups go beyond just cleaning your teeth—they include thorough examinations, preventive treatments, and advanced diagnostic technology to ensure long-term oral health.
Professional Teeth Cleanings for a Healthier Smile
Routine professional teeth cleanings are a crucial part of maintaining strong teeth and healthy gums. Even with excellent at-home brushing and flossing, plaque and tartar can build up over time, leading to cavities, gum disease, and other dental issues.
Our skilled dental hygienist will carefully remove:
- Plaque – A sticky film containing bacteria that can lead to gum disease and tooth decay if not removed regularly.
- Tartar (calculus) – A hardened deposit that forms on the teeth and can contribute to cavities and gum inflammation.
Using gentle yet effective tools, we thoroughly clean your teeth, reducing your risk of dental problems and leaving your mouth feeling fresh and healthy.
Oral Cancer Screenings: Early Detection Saves Lives
As part of your routine dental exam, we provide oral cancer screenings to identify any signs of precancerous or cancerous conditions early. This painless, non-invasive exam involves checking for:
- Unusual red or white patches in the mouth
- Sores or lesions that do not heal within two to three weeks
- Lumps, swelling, or irregularities in the lips, tongue, or oral tissues
Risk factors such as smoking, heavy alcohol use, and HPV increase the chances of oral cancer, making early detection even more critical. At Pacific Dental Group, we include a comprehensive oral cancer screening during every dental checkup to keep your health in check.
Advanced Digital X-Rays for Precise Diagnosis
We use state-of-the-art digital X-ray technology to detect tooth decay, infections, bone loss, and other dental issues with greater accuracy than traditional X-rays. Benefits of digital X-rays include:
- Lower radiation exposure – Up to 90% less than conventional X-rays
- Instant imaging – No waiting for film development
- High-resolution images – Enhanced detail for more precise diagnosis
- Environmentally friendly – No harmful chemicals or waste
Our dentist will review your X-ray images with you in real-time, explaining any findings and ensuring you fully understand your oral health status and treatment options.
