Why Checkups and Cleanings Matter
Preventative Dental Care
Preventative dentistry keeps your teeth and gums healthy. A professional teeth cleaning every six months helps you fight cavities and periodontal disease. Your dentist can also screen for early signs of other dental health issues during these biannual visits.
Setting Long-Term Goals
Each teeth cleaning is an opportunity to plan ahead. We can offer hygiene advice to help prevent various dental health problems. We can also develop custom treatment plans for TMJ disorders, malocclusion, and more advanced or involved wellness needs.
DENTAL HAUS GERMANTOWN IS FOUNDED ON THE GUIDING PRINCIPLES of outstanding patient care and thorough communication.
Did You Know...
/
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), one in four American adults has at least one untreated cavity. Regular teeth cleanings allow us to prevent cavities from happening or treat tooth decay in its earliest stages.
What We Strive for When Patients Come for a Checkup
Prevention
Brushing and flossing is essential for a healthy smile, but they are not enough alone. When a professional regularly examines and cleans your teeth, they are much more likely to catch early signs of oral health problems.
Education
In addition to teeth cleanings, our team helps you understand what we're doing and why. That context can be empowering for your own oral hygiene practices.
Connection
We want you to feel good every time you visit the dentist and work with our hygienists. You will always be welcome at Dental Haus Germantown, whether you're in our office or when a question comes up between visits.
"Clean, professional, everyone was very nice, and the standard dental cleaning I got was done very well as far as I could tell.
Everything they were doing was explained clearly. Exactly what I'm looking for in a dentist/dentist's office." Jamie W.
What You Can Expect During Your Dental Visit
During your visit, you can share any concerns about your teeth and gums. Tell us if you've experienced tooth sensitivity, jaw pain, sore teeth, or any causes of discomfort. We're here to look after your oral health.

We'll thoroughly examine your teeth, gums, and other structures of the mouth. Digital x-rays and a tooth-by-tooth inspection combined with our conversation will help us understand your dental health needs.

Plaque and tartar that's accumulated on the teeth can lead to cavities and gum disease. We'll carefully scrape away tartar buildup using professional tools, which will keep your smile healthy in the months ahead.

Brushing and flossing at home doesn't compare to a cleaning by a trained hygienist. A high-powered polish and professional flossing will help remove food particles and plaque from hard-to-reach places.
Once the dental cleaning is completed, we'll review current and future oral health concerns. Your dentist will explain any treatments that need to be performed and share dental hygiene tips you can try at home.
