Keeping your smile healthy starts with regular dental exams and cleanings. At Espire Dental Colorado Springs, we prioritize your dental health by offering comprehensive exams and professional cleanings designed to prevent issues and keep your teeth and gums in top condition. Our friendly team takes pride in delivering personalized, patient-focused care tailored to your unique needs.
Regular dental exams and professional cleanings are the foundation of a healthy mouth. Even with excellent at-home brushing and flossing, plaque and tartar can still build up in hard-to-reach areas. Over time, this can lead to cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues. At Espire Dental Colorado Springs, we recommend scheduling a checkup every six months to catch potential problems early and keep your smile bright.
Here are a few reasons why dental exams and cleanings are essential:
A typical dental cleaning takes about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on your oral health. This includes a thorough cleaning, polishing, and fluoride treatment if recommended.
Yes, most dental insurance plans cover preventive services like exams and cleanings every six months. We’ll work with your insurance provider to maximize your benefits and keep your care affordable.
Our dental hygienists are highly trained to make your cleaning as comfortable as possible. Let us know if you experience sensitivity or discomfort, and we can adjust the treatment to ensure you feel relaxed.
If we detect signs of gum disease during your exam, we may recommend a deep cleaning or scaling and root planing to remove bacteria below the gumline. Our team will explain your treatment options and create a plan to restore your gum health.
If you notice symptoms such as bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, tooth pain, or sensitivity, you must schedule a dental visit immediately. Regular checkups help catch issues before they become severe, but don’t wait if something feels off.
Brushing twice daily, flossing daily, and using an antibacterial mouthwash can help prevent cavities and gum disease. Maintaining a balanced diet and avoiding sugary snacks and drinks are crucial to good oral health.
At Espire Dental Colorado Springs, we’re committed to helping you achieve and maintain a healthy smile through comprehensive dental exams and cleanings. Whether you’re due for your regular checkup or need a more in-depth exam, our expert team, led by Dr. Erick Anderson, Dr. John Neuhaus, and Dr. Ken Gasper, is here to provide you with the highest quality care.
