Keep your smile healthy with gentle dental exams and cleanings
Preventive dental care is one of the easiest ways to protect your smile—and your overall health. At Smithberger DDS in Towson, MD, we provide gentle yet thorough dental exams and cleanings that help you stay ahead of problems like cavities, gum disease, and tooth decay. With routine visits every six months, you’ll keep your teeth looking great and feeling even better.
We do more than just check your teeth. Every exam includes a comprehensive evaluation of your entire mouth. Dr. Smithberger will examine your teeth, gums, bite, and jaw to look for signs of decay, infection, or oral cancer. By identifying issues early, we can offer conservative treatments before they become more serious or costly.
✔ Removes plaque and tartar that regular brushing can’t reach.
✔ Prevents gum disease, inflammation, and bad breath.
✔ Polishes enamel for a smooth, refreshed feel.
✔ Offers personalized oral hygiene tips to improve your routine.
✔ Helps maintain long-term oral and overall health.
Routine exams and cleanings offer long-term protection for your teeth and gums. They allow us to detect early signs of damage, inflammation, or enamel erosion before you experience pain or require complex treatment. Patients who visit every six months typically have fewer dental issues, brighter smiles, and a better understanding of their oral health.
Most people benefit from two cleanings per year. However, some patients—especially those with a history of gum disease or chronic health conditions—may need to come in more frequently. We’ll tailor your cleaning schedule to your individual needs and keep your smile on track.
