At Espire Dental La Jolla, we believe that a healthy smile starts with prevention. Regular dental exams and cleanings are the foundation of excellent oral health, helping you avoid cavities, gum disease, and more complex dental issues down the road. Located near La Jolla Cove and Prospect Street, our office makes it easy to prioritize your oral health with comprehensive care in a relaxing and welcoming environment.
Whether you’re due for a routine check-up or it’s been a while since your last cleaning, Dr. Sarah Winter and Dr. Sophia Aramoon are here to provide gentle, thorough care for you and your family. Our approach to preventive dentistry is focused on education, early detection, and keeping your smile bright and healthy.
Regular dental exams and cleanings are crucial to maintaining optimal oral health. Even with excellent brushing and flossing habits, plaque and tartar can build up in hard-to-reach areas of your mouth. Over time, this buildup can lead to cavities, gum disease, and other issues that may require more extensive treatment. At Espire Dental La Jolla, we take a proactive approach to your dental care, identifying problems early and providing the cleanings necessary to prevent them from developing.
Here’s what makes our exams and cleanings essential:
Whether you're taking a break from a day at La Jolla Shores Park or stopping by from nearby Girard Avenue, we make it easy to fit preventive dental care into your schedule.
We recommend cleanings every six months to maintain optimal oral health. Patients with gum disease or other concerns may need more frequent cleanings.
Cleanings are generally not painful. Our hygienists are gentle, and if you have sensitive areas, we can take steps to ensure your comfort during the cleaning.
Bleeding gums may be a sign of gingivitis or gum disease. Regular cleanings help remove plaque buildup, and we’ll provide guidance on improving your gum health.
Yes, cleanings can remove surface stains caused by coffee, tea, or smoking, leaving your teeth looking brighter. However, deeper stains may require professional teeth whitening.
Yes, x-rays are important for detecting issues that can’t be seen with the naked eye, such as cavities between teeth, infections, or bone loss.
During your first visit, we’ll conduct a comprehensive exam to assess your oral health, take X-rays, and perform a thorough cleaning. We’ll also discuss any concerns you have and create a personalized care plan.
Keeping your smile healthy has never been easier. Whether you’re heading to La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club or enjoying a sunset at Nicholson Point, a bright, healthy smile enhances every experience. At Espire Dental, we’re here to make sure your smile stays in top shape.

Everyone there was extremely nice. The Dentist and his assistant made me feel really comfortable. My over all experience was great best I've ever had in my life a Dentist office and I'm 60 years old.
