Cleanings and Exams at Corona Prime Dental
At Corona Prime Dental, we believe prevention is the foundation of a healthy smile. Routine dental cleanings and exams play a critical role in protecting your teeth and gums while identifying potential concerns early—before they become more serious.
Whether you’re maintaining good oral health or addressing early signs of dental issues, our preventive care services are designed to keep your smile healthy, comfortable, and confident for years to come.
What Are Dental Cleanings and Exams?
Professional Dental Cleanings
Dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup that regular brushing and flossing can’t fully eliminate. During a cleaning, our hygienist focuses on:
- Removing plaque and hardened tartar
- Polishing teeth to reduce surface stains
- Flossing between teeth
- Evaluating gum health to detect early signs of inflammation
Comprehensive Dental Exams
Your dental exam allows our dentist to carefully assess your oral health, including:
- Checking teeth and gums for decay or disease
- Evaluating existing dental restorations
- Screening for oral health concerns
- Recommending X-rays when needed to detect hidden issues
Together, cleanings and exams help maintain optimal oral health and prevent future dental problems.
Why Routine Cleanings and Exams Are Important
Scheduling regular cleanings and exams helps:
- Prevent cavities and tooth decay
- Reduce the risk of gum disease
- Detect dental concerns early
- Maintain fresh breath and a brighter smile
- Support long-term oral and overall health
Most patients benefit from visiting the dentist every six months, though your dentist may recommend a personalized schedule based on your needs.

- Children, teens, adults, and seniors
