Professional Dental Cleanings & Exams in Fairport

Maintain a healthy, bright smile with regular cleanings and exams at Spruce Grove Dental. Jonathan Adler, DDS, and our team provide personalized care to keep your teeth and gums in top shape while preventing serious issues.

What Are Cleanings & Exams?

Regular cleanings and exams are the foundation of good oral health. These routine visits remove plaque and tartar, prevent cavities and gum disease, and allow us to monitor your overall oral health. By identifying problems early, we can provide prompt treatment and help you avoid more extensive procedures in the future.

Benefits of Cleanings & Exams

  1. Preventive Care — Regular cleanings prevent plaque buildup, cavities, and gum disease.
  2. Early Detection — Exams help identify issues like tooth decay, gum disease, and oral cancer early.
  3. Personalized Recommendations — Tailored advice to improve your at-home oral hygiene routine.
  4. Brightened Smile — Removal of surface stains for a cleaner, brighter appearance.

What to Expect During Your Visit

Professional Cleaning — removal of plaque and tartar buildup using specialized tools, polishing to remove surface stains, and flossing to clean hard-to-reach areas.

Comprehensive Exam — evaluation of teeth and gums for signs of decay or gum disease, an oral cancer screening, and a review of digital X-rays if needed.

Personalized Consultation — a discussion of any concerns, guidance on your at-home routine, and recommendations for treatments like fluoride or sealants if needed.

“Awesome office! Awesome dentist! Awesome staff!”

— Carole S.

“I switched dental providers because of insurance policy needs and I am so incredibly happy!... Dr. Adler did a very comprehensive evaluation of my teeth ... never before completed to that level...and he spotted areas of concern that my former dentist never caught. I am almost 79 years old and I have never experienced a dentist of his competence and skill! I'd recommend him to everyone... young and old!!”
