Common Questions About Dental Cleanings and Exams
-
The length of these services may vary a bit, depending on whether we take X-rays or provide any preventive services like dental sealants. Usually, though, we can complete an exam and cleaning in about an hour. You may need to allow more time if it’s been a long time since you’ve seen a dentist.
-
You can typically eat right after a dental cleaning, as it doesn’t require any numbing or recovery time. However, it’s important to consider the potential sensitivity of your teeth and gums after the cleaning. If you experience sensitivity or your dentist advises against consuming certain foods or drinks immediately after the cleaning, it’s best to follow their recommendations. In general, you can resume your regular eating habits after a dental cleaning without significant delay or restrictions.
-
Putting off dental appointments until you are in pain can lead to a serious oral health issue. Plus, not all dental problems show painful symptoms until they are in the advanced stages. Regular dental checkups give you the advantage of having a dental professional examine your mouth. Detecting oral health concerns in their early stages means less expensive and less invasive treatments.
