Preventive Care

Keep Your Smile Healthy & Bright

Regular dental cleanings are the foundation of a healthy smile. At Reimche-Vu Family Dentistry, our gentle and thorough cleaning appointments help prevent cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues before they start.

Your Cleaning Visit

What Happens During a Cleaning?

Your cleaning appointment begins with a thorough examination of your teeth and gums. Our skilled hygienists use specialized instruments to gently remove plaque and tartar buildup from all surfaces of your teeth, including hard-to-reach areas between teeth and below the gumline.

After scaling, your teeth are polished with a professional-grade paste to remove surface stains and smooth the enamel. We then floss between each tooth to ensure every space is clean and free of debris.

Dr. David will perform a comprehensive exam, checking for cavities, gum disease, and any other concerns. We may take X-rays if needed to get a complete picture of your oral health. We recommend cleanings every six months for most patients.

Why It Matters

Benefits of Regular Cleanings

Prevent Cavities

Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup that brushing alone cannot reach, significantly reducing your risk of cavities.

Healthier Gums

Regular cleanings help prevent gum disease by removing bacteria that cause inflammation, bleeding, and infection along the gumline.

Fresher Breath

Cleanings eliminate odor-causing bacteria and tartar deposits, leaving your mouth feeling fresh and clean for weeks.

Early Detection

During your cleaning visit, we perform a thorough exam to catch potential issues like cavities, oral cancer, and gum disease early.
