Checkup and Cleaning

Keeping your smile healthy and beautiful is our number one priority. One of the most important ways you can help do good by your mouth is to visit us for twice-yearly checkup and cleanings.

At Northern Virginia Dental Solutions, we’re proud to welcome patients of all ages and walks of life to schedule a general cleaning with us to ensure your oral health is in tip-top shape.

What Happens During a Checkup and Cleaning?

During these important visits, we have the chance to:

• Take x-rays to look for changes or problems
• Thoroughly clean your teeth
• Perform a fluoride treatment (if necessary)
• Make recommendations for further custom treatments

Screen your mouth for problems before they turn serious, including infections, tooth decay, oral cancer and more. Checkup and cleanings are designed to keep your smile beaming for years to come, and give our dentist a chance to provide their expertise when it comes to your oral health.
