Dental Cleanings & Exams
Simple Visits. Big Impact. Your Healthiest Smile Starts Here
Preventive dental care isn’t just about avoiding cavities — it’s about building a strong foundation for lifelong oral health. At Tidelands Dental, we make cleanings and exams comfortable, thorough, and actually enjoyable — so you never dread coming back.
Whether it’s been 6 months or 6 years, our team is here to welcome you without judgment and help you stay ahead of problems — before they become painful or expensive.

Why Regular Cleanings and Exams Matter
- Remove plaque and tartar that brushing can’t reach
- Catch cavities, gum disease, or early signs of infection
- Detect oral cancer or other underlying issues early
- Provide personalized tips for at-home care
- Maintain fresh breath and a confident smile
What to Expect at Your Visit
Thorough Dental Cleaning
Our hygienists gently remove plaque and tartar, polish your teeth, and floss to leave your smile clean and refreshed. We also apply fluoride if needed.
Comprehensive Exam
Your dentist will examine your teeth, gums, bite, and any areas of concern. We’ll use digital X-rays (if due) to check for issues below the surface.
