Cleanings & Checkups

Toronto Dentist Erases Stains and Examines Your Smile

You deserve a break. You deserve strong teeth and a clean smile. You deserve top-quality dental care. Too often, patients put oral health on the back burner, failing to prioritize it because life is just so busy. But you’ve earned the chance to take some time for yourself. At White Tooth Dental, we’re passionate about providing patients with preventative care that’s peaceful to get and offers peace of mind. Our teeth cleanings and dental exams are all about you, focused on polishing your smile, monitoring your health, and protecting your future.

Steps and Benefits of Dental Cleanings and Checkups

At your dental appointment, our skilled hygienist starts by meticulously removing plaque and tartar from your teeth and gums, especially in areas that are harder for regular brushing and flossing to reach. This buildup is the reason for many dental issues like cavities and gum disease, so your professional teeth cleaning is a great way to nip those issues in the bud. Your teeth are polished and flossed to remove stains and particles, and then one of our dentists performs an exam. They check for cracks, cavities, and any abnormalities, as well as how your oral health is working together. 

From just these simple steps, you get benefits like:

Fluoride Treatments:
Your Friendly Enamel Booster

Fluoride is a crucial mineral for dental health. Our treatments, done at your regular appointment, add some extra strength to your teeth’s defence against decay, reinforcing your tooth enamel and combatting cavity formation. The result is a set of teeth that’s at decreased risk of cavities and decay. Fluoride treatment is especially beneficial if you’re prone to dental issues—your teeth might just need a little extra boost. We also recommend this preventative measure for children to help keep their teeth in good shape while they grow.

Dental Sealants:
Protection for Vulnerable Teeth

Sealants form a thin, protective layer that covers the grooves and dips on the chewing surfaces of your molars and premolars. Those are the teeth most susceptible to decay. After painting the sealant onto your teeth, we then harden it with a special light. This layer effectively blocks out food particles and bacteria, which tend to cause cavities when they get lodged in the pits of your teeth. Dental sealants are especially important for children and teenagers, guarding their developing teeth during crucial years. However, adults without fillings or decay can also benefit from this treatment.

Oral Cancer Screenings:
Early Prevention

At White Tooth Dental, we include oral cancer screenings as part of our routine checkup services for adults. More than just a precaution, this vital exam is a proactive step toward safeguarding your well-being. Early detection can make a difference. By catching oral cancer as soon as possible, we may have more treatment options available, and those treatments could be more successful. At our Toronto dentist office, you receive comprehensive care that goes beyond just addressing immediate dental concerns. You can trust us to be your partners in maintaining not only your oral health but your general health as well.
