Dental Cleanings & Dental Exams Are The Foundation Of Sound Dental Care
The Longwood Dental Group
hygiene staff is committed to offering personalized and compassionate dental care to every patient. We pride ourselves in offering not only superior dental expertise but a standard of impeccable service that sets us apart.
The foundation of sound dental care is routine dental cleaning and maintenance. However, your routine hygiene visits are not only for cleaning. At Longwood Dental Group, your oral hygiene visits include a thorough examination and include an oral cancer screening, gum disease and decay evaluation as well as restorative evaluation.
Depending on your personal condition, your routine hygiene appointments are scheduled for every 3-6 months. In addition to an oral cancer screening, gum disease and decay evaluation and restorative evaluation, visits may also include Intraoral photographs, digital dental x-rays or treatments; as well as a complete dental cleaning and polishing.
