How long does a check-up and clean take?

A typical check-up and clean appointment takes 45-60 minutes. This includes time for examination, cleaning, and discussion of any findings or recommendations.

Professional cleaning is generally comfortable. You may experience some sensitivity if you have significant tartar buildup or sensitive teeth, but we use gentle techniques and can provide numbing gel if needed.

What should I do before my appointment?

Brush and floss normally before your appointment. Bring a list of any medications you're taking and be prepared to discuss any concerns or changes in your oral health.
