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.

  • I have had nothing but great experiences here. It starts right when you walk in the door the secretary is extremely knowledgeable, helpful and just a pleasure to be around.The dental assistant was great explaining what she was doing. Finally the dentist took the time to explain everything to me. They also stayed late to fit me in for an emergency without even being a patient.

  • The minute I walked into The All-Brite office I felt like family. As a staff member handed me a welcome gift, I was quickly escorted to a room. No wailting. Talked to the doctor about my evaluation, all with no hidden charges. As I begin to send this review, I receive a text reminding me about my appt. I have NEVER experienced such an amazing group of people. I am looking forward to my teeth cleaning experience.

  • I love All Brite Dental. The hygienists are absolutely awesome and I've never had such a great cleaning. I have had issues with my gums and they have been life savers. It is difficult to get later and weekend appointments with work schedules, but they are always willing to put you on a waiting list and call me when something becomes available. Great customer service.
