Dental Hygiene

At Alira Smiles Dental, we emphasize the importance of regular check-ups to maintain optimal oral health and prevent minor issues from escalating into major concerns. We recommend scheduling a comprehensive dental check-up every six months to ensure your teeth remain strong and healthy for years to come.

During your initial visit, our dentist will engage in a thorough discussion regarding your overall health and any dental concerns you may have. This conversation helps establish trust and ensures that we consider all relevant factors during your examination. Our comprehensive check-up includes a visual assessment of your teeth with photographs, digital X-rays (when necessary), an oral cancer screening, evaluation of jaw muscles and joint health, assessment of oral hygiene, and a record of your current gum and teeth conditions.

Our dental team utilizes advanced technology, such as ultrasonic scalers and Airflow or prophyflex systems, to provide painless and efficient scaling and polishing procedures. Depending on your exam results and dental history, X-rays may be recommended to detect any underlying issues like decay, impacted teeth, or hidden abscesses.

If additional dental work is needed, we collaborate with you to develop a personalized treatment plan and provide a detailed estimate of fees. For complex cases requiring specialized care, we can facilitate referrals to trusted specialists. Take charge of your dental health by scheduling a check-up with us today!
