Cleanings and Exams

Prevention is the foundation of a healthy smile and a healthier you. Regular dental checkups and teeth cleanings are essential for maintaining strong teeth and gums, preventing dental problems before they start, and supporting overall well-being.

Dr. Haley Julian and her caring team provide thorough yet gentle exams and cleanings for patients of all ages. Whether it’s been six months or six years since your last visit, you will always be met with kindness, honesty, and support.

Your Oral Health Affects Your Entire Body

Research continues to demonstrate strong connections between oral health and overall wellness. Dental diseases and infections have been tied to numerous conditions, and more are being discovered every day:

  • Heart disease and cardiovascular problems
  • Diabetes complications
  • Respiratory infections
  • Pregnancy complications
  • Rheumatoid arthritis
  • Cognitive decline

Benefits of Preventive Cleanings and Exams

By keeping current with routine dental checkups every six months (or as recommended), you can eliminate a lot of stress and take a huge step toward maintaining a healthy, problem-free smile.

Save Time and Money

Being proactive with preventive care helps you avoid costly, time-consuming treatments. Small issues like cavities can be addressed quickly and affordably, saving you from larger problems requiring crowns, root canals, or more extensive dental work.

Minimize Emergencies

Untreated issues often cause toothaches, infections, and other dental emergencies. Routine checkups and teeth cleanings prevent sudden disruptions to your life and allow you to enjoy peace of mind, knowing your family's oral health is on the right track.

Protect Your Health

Regular dental exams and cleanings allow our dentist to catch issues like cavities, gum disease, and infections in their early stages. Prompt treatment not only resolves the issue but protects your overall oral health and contributes to general health and well-being.

Frequently Asked Questions

The American Dental Association recommends that most adults and children have dental exams and cleanings every six months. However, your family's optimal schedule depends on your oral health needs and risk factors. During your first visit to Haley Julian Dental Arts, we will carefully evaluate these factors and recommend a personalized preventive care schedule.

Dental Exam and Cleaning Frequency

Several elements help determine how often you should schedule preventive visits. These include your dental history, existing medical conditions like diabetes, medications that affect oral health, and lifestyle factors such as smoking. Some patients benefit from more frequent visits, particularly those with:

  • A history of frequent cavities or gum problems
  • Chronic medical conditions affecting oral health
  • Weakened immune systems
  • Genetic predisposition to dental issues
  • Complex dental work requiring regular monitoring

Special Circumstances

Certain life events or conditions may require temporary adjustments to your exam schedule. Pregnancy, cancer treatment, or significant health changes often call for more frequent dental visits. If you're undergoing orthodontic treatment or have recently completed extensive dental work, our dentist in Maryville, TN, may also recommend more regular monitoring.

What to Expect during a Dental Exam

Dr. Julian conducts comprehensive examinations using advanced technology to ensure nothing is overlooked. Our digital x-rays and intraoral cameras allow us to detect issues early while showing you exactly what we see. We believe in educating our patients and ensuring they feel comfortable, informed, and empowered at every step.

Every routine checkup includes the following steps:

  • Thorough evaluation of teeth, gums, and oral tissues
  • Screening for oral cancer and other abnormalities
  • Assessment of your bite and jaw function
  • Review of existing dental work
  • Digital imaging as needed for detailed diagnosis

If Dr. Julian identifies any concerns, she takes time to explain her findings. She will discuss treatment options and explain the benefits of addressing issues promptly while respecting your preferences and priorities. Together, we’ll create a treatment plan that fits your needs, schedule, and budget.

Professional Teeth Cleaning: Your Partner in Prevention

Even with excellent at-home brushing and flossing, professional cleanings are essential for removing plaque and tartar buildup that you can’t reach on your own. Our gentle, thorough teeth cleanings include:

  • Removing plaque and tartar accumulation
  • Polishing teeth to remove surface stains
  • Applying fluoride treatment when appropriate
  • Providing personalized oral hygiene instruction

Gum disease progresses in stages, starting with gingivitis (red, swollen gums that bleed easily) and advancing to periodontitis if untreated. When you visit us routinely, our hygienist can spot the symptoms of gum disease and provide treatment before it progresses and threatens your oral health.
