Dental Checkups & Cleanings in High Point, NC

The easiest problem to fix is the one that never starts. Regular checkups keep your teeth healthy and your visits short.

Why Regular Checkups Matter

Cavities and gum disease usually don't hurt at first. By the time something aches, the problem has often been there for a while. That's why we like to see you every six months.
At each visit, we clean away the plaque and tartar that brushing misses and take a close look at your teeth and gums. If we spot a small cavity, it's a quick fix. Wait too long and it can turn into a crown or a root canal. Most insurance plans cover checkups, so it's worth using them.

What Happens at Your Visit

Your hygienist will clean and polish your teeth, and the dentist will check your teeth, gums and bite. We take X-rays when they're due, not every time. Then we'll tell you what we found in plain language and answer any questions you have.
