Your first hygiene visit at Melton Dental includes a comprehensive exam to assess your oral health and create a personalized care plan.
We use advanced cavity detection, including Diagnodent laser technology, to identify decay before it worsens. A detailed cleaning eliminates plaque and tartar, helping your teeth feel polished and refreshed.
Your dentist also looks for signs of gum disease, excessive dental wear that may indicate you’d benefit from a protective night guard, and other issues that may need to be addressed.
Routine exams allow your dentist to catch these small issues before they develop into bigger problems. If needed, we offer preventive treatments like fluoride applications and sealants to strengthen enamel and shield your gums from potential concerns.
Our state-of-the-art equipment enhances your experience and provides precise, comfortable care. Digital X-rays allow us to take detailed images with minimal radiation exposure, while intraoral cameras give us a clear view of hard-to-see areas.
Our ultrasonic cleaning system efficiently removes plaque and tartar without discomfort, and laser bacterial disinfection helps improve gum health by targeting harmful bacteria. We also offer panoramic X-rays to show your entire mouth in a single image.
These advanced technologies help us detect potential problems early, provide more effective treatments, and ensure your visits are smooth and stress-free.

For most of our patients, a dental exam and cleaning will take about an hour. We’ll begin by asking you about any problems and possibly taking a set of X-rays. Your dental hygienist will then look over your mouth and perform a thorough teeth cleaning. Finally, your dentist will perform a complete dental exam and make any recommendations needed for a healthy smile.
If you wait until you are in pain, you already have a serious problem. On top of that, not all dental problems cause pain. By getting regular exams, you get the benefit of having dental professionals look at your mouth. We can identify potential problems or catch them in the early stages. That allows us to fix them before you may need expensive and invasive treatments.
In general, we recommend that a patient come in every six months for a dental exam and cleaning. Routine checkups allow us the chance to keep an eye on your oral health and provide early treatment for any problems we spot. You may need to visit us more often if you’re susceptible to gum disease.
