Why Are Regular Dental Checkups & Cleanings Important?
Perhaps one of the most common misconceptions about dentistry is that you only need to schedule an appointment if something is wrong, like you have a toothache. That’s not the case! In fact, routine visits ensure we catch oral cancer, tooth decay, gum disease, damaged restorations, and other trouble in the early stages. Plus, the cleaning portion ensures plaque and tartar are removed before they wreak havoc on your smile. To put it simply, your biannual visits play a crucial role in both diagnosing dental problems in the early stages and preventing others from developing.
Important reminder: If you have had a long layoff from the dentist, know that you are not alone and that we would love to get you back on track. We fully understand that you have your choice of healthcare providers and would be honored to earn a lifelong relationship!

Your first visit with Dr. Weldon will include a review of your dental and general health history as well as a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and bite. When he is done, he will share his findings and answer any questions you have. If you require more than just a basic cleaning and diagnostic X-rays, he will describe what therapies he recommends to protect and restore your dental health and work with you on how to achieve the best possible results while remaining within your budget. If you have aesthetic concerns, he would be happy to discuss them as well.
What to Expect During a Dental Cleaning
The cleaning portion of your visit will be with one of our dedicated, caring, and experienced dental hygienists.

In the process, they will share any recommendations or feedback they have on how to improve your at-home oral hygiene regimen. Then, they will polish and floss your teeth before scheduling your next visit!
