The Value of Regular Dental Cleanings and Check-Ups
Beausejour Dental Centre is known for its comprehensive dental care and its focus on the crucial role of regular dental cleanings and check-ups. These visits are not just about maintaining a bright smile; they are essential in preventing more extensive dental issues and can be a key factor in saving money in the long run.
The Importance of Consistent Dental Visits and Cleanings
Routine dental cleanings and check-ups are fundamental to oral health. Here’s how they benefit you:
- Preventing Dental Problems: Regular cleanings prevent cavities and gum disease. By removing plaque and tartar build-up, we can reduce the chance these develop into more serious conditions.
- Early Detection: During your check-up, our team can identify early signs of problems such as cavities, gingivitis, and oral cancer. Early detection makes treatment easier and less costly.
- Maintaining Overall Health: Oral health impacts your overall well-being. Regular dental care helps prevent conditions linked to heart disease, risk of stroke, and other medical issues.
- Oral Hygiene Education: Our team provides valuable advice on home care for your teeth and gums, helping you maintain a healthy mouth.

At Beausejour Dental Centre, your cleaning and check-up involve:
- Comprehensive Examination: We conducts a full examination of your teeth, gums, and mouth, ensuring any potential issues are identified.
- Personalized Recommendations: We offer tailored advice to improve and maintain oral health based on your needs.
- Thorough Cleaning: Our skilled dental hygienists will clean and polish your teeth, removing plaque and tartar build-up.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I have a dental cleaning and check-up?
For most patients, every six months. Some patients with gum disease or higher risk factors benefit from more frequent hygiene visits. Regular visits let us catch cavities, gum problems, and oral cancer signs early, when treatment is simpler and less costly.
What happens during a check-up at Beausejour Dental Centre?
Your hygienist removes plaque and tartar, polishes your teeth, and your exam covers teeth, gums, bite, jaw joint, and an oral cancer screening. New patients receive a comprehensive oral exam that becomes the baseline for tracking your dental health year to year.
Are cleanings covered by insurance or the Canadian Dental Care Plan?
Most dental insurance plans cover routine cleanings and exams, and eligible patients covered under the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) are welcome at our clinic. Our front desk team can help you understand what your coverage includes before your visit.
