Keep Your Teeth & Gums Healthy. Call Today To Schedule Your Appointment!
248-712-1522Seeing our Royal Oak, MI dentists for regular dental exams and cleanings is important for your dental health and your overall health too. Keeping your teeth and gums free of harmful plaque maintains a balance of “good” and “bad” bacteria in your mouth that improves your overall health. Too much “bad” bacteria has been linked to conditions such as diabetes and heart disease.
Dr. Alvin Daboul on Dental Cleanings and Exams
Read Transcript With the dental cleaning, you're going to come in. You'll see the hygienist and myself. We'll do a thorough exam on you, an oral cancer screening, a TMJ exam. We'll talk to you about anything related as far as sleep apnea, anything that has to do with your mouth.
The hygienists here are very gentle. Some patients like more pressure and they know how to do that for you if you ask for it. They basically treat you for what you need. With your cleaning, the hygienist is going to find out what you're used to, what you like, and she's going to help you get your teeth cleaned, and we're going to educate you on prevention and do any diagnosis that we need and help you restore your mouth for maintaining your health.
During your exam, our dental team will:
- Remove surface stains so your smile looks whiter and brighter
- Fight cavities by removing the plaque that causes them
- Take X-rays and use advanced technology like intraoral cameras to get a baseline of your dental health and highlight issues that may need attention
- Prevent gum disease by removing plaque at the gumline and between teeth, areas that are tough to reach at home
- Perform an oral cancer screening, which is important since early detection boosts survival rates
- Check your bite and other orthodontic issues

If you have a chronically sore jaw, for example, our dentists may suggest a custom mouthguard you can wear at night to relieve your pain. If you’re bothered by a dingy smile, they can review your teeth whitening options.
