What is a Dental Exam?

A dental exam is a comprehensive, detailed checkup to ensure your teeth are in good condition. In particular, this includes an examination of your teeth, gums, and mouth.  During the exam, we look at the position and shape of your teeth, their condition, and your overall dental health.

To maintain great oral hygiene you need to keep routine dental checkups on your calendar. Our dental exams in Dearborn are not just about making sure your teeth and gums are in good shape. Your exam also evaluates many other vital oral health factors to ensure you covered.

The Key to a Healthy Smile: Why Regular Dental Exams and Cleanings Matter

Taking care of your teeth goes beyond just brushing and flossing. Regular dental check-ups and cleanings play a vital role in ensuring a lifetime of healthy smiles. Here’s why they’re essential:

Preventing Tooth Decay

Professional cleanings and early detection stop cavities in their tracks before they lead to costly and painful treatments. 

Protecting Against Gum Disease

Routine exams help identify early signs of gingivitis or periodontitis, preserving your gums and supporting long-term oral health. 

Boosting Overall Health

Your oral health is closely connected to your overall well-being. A healthy mouth supports a healthier body, helping you feel your best every day.

Achieving a Brighter Smile

Cleanings remove stains and tartar buildup, leaving your teeth polished, brighter, and confidence-boosting.

Preventing Tooth Decay

Frequently Asked Questions

A professional cleaning includes:

  • Scaling: Removing plaque and tartar from the tooth surface and gumline.
  • Polishing: Smoothing and cleaning the surface of your teeth to remove stains and make them feel fresh.
  • Fluoride Treatment: Applying fluoride to strengthen enamel and help prevent cavities (optional but often recommended).

Most patients experience little to no discomfort during a cleaning. If you have sensitive teeth or gums, let your dentist or hygienist know so they can adjust the procedure to ensure your comfort.

The entire process typically takes 45 minutes to an hour, depending on your oral health.

  • Brush and floss your teeth as usual.
  • Make a list of any concerns or questions you’d like to discuss with your dentist.
  • Bring your insurance card and any relevant medical history updates.

The cost can vary depending on your location and the complexity of your care. Many insurance plans cover dental exams and cleanings entirely or with a small co-pay. All Brites Dental can provide a detailed estimate and help you navigate your insurance benefits.

Absolutely! Pediatric dental care is vital for preventing early tooth decay and teaching lifelong oral hygiene habits. The process is adjusted to ensure kids feel comfortable and safe.

If it’s been a while since your last visit, don’t worry! Your dentist will work with you to restore your oral health step by step. A deep cleaning or additional treatments may be necessary, but starting now is the key to healthier teeth and gums.

While cleanings remove surface stains and leave your teeth looking brighter, they don’t change the natural color of your teeth. If you’re interested in whitening, your dentist can recommend professional options.

Neglecting cleanings can lead to plaque buildup, cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. Over time, untreated issues can result in tooth loss or more invasive treatments like root canals or periodontal surgery.

  • Dr Rafiq always explains what he's doing and why. He makes sure that I am comfortable and satisfied with what he's doing. Dr Rafiq is very skilled in performing dental procedures, such as laser procedures, fillings & crowns. I have been his patient since he opened his practice. Amber, the hygienist, performs "painless" teeth cleanings, which ensures you always keep your appointments, to prevent future problems from occurring. During cleanings, Dr Rafiq always stops in to greet you, perform an exam and expalins any dental problem options. The business office always explain any costs associate with any procedure and follow up with your insurance company to minimize you out of pocket costs. The entire staff @ All Bright Dental treats you like family!

  • After my dentist retired I was nervous about finding a new one, but finally after a few years I picked All Brite Dental due to all the great reviews, and I'm glad I did! Dr. Rafiq and all of the staff are awesome. Super helpful and friendly. So far I've had a cleaning and gotten some fillings. Both were completely painless! Definitely would recommend.

  • After faithfully staying with the same dental clinic since 1973 (!!) I needed and wanted to change. A friend fortunately referred me to All Brite Dental and Dr. Rafiq. Little did I know, after only one visit, I felt like I had known the staff and Dr. Rafiq for a very long time...when I got home the day of my first visit I thought about the experience and asked myself "is that what it's supposed to be like?". I can't say enough about how everyone was so personable, caring and attentive, like family that you actually love! And, knowledgeable and professional to boot!! ♥ ♥ ♥
