Oral Examination

A hygienist will use a small mirror to examine the inside of your mouth and brief your dentist on any concerns. If something more serious is found, your dentist will discuss the next steps to address it.

Maintain Prosthetics

If you have dental implants, an overdenture, or another prosthetic, our dentists will check it at every visit. This is included in our process to help our Merritt Island patients maintain their dental work in the long term.

Plaque and Tartar Removal

Your hygienist will use special tools to gently remove plaque between your teeth and along your gumline. They will also remove tartar that has hardened on the front and back of your teeth.

Polishing

Your hygienist will use tooth polish and a high-powered brush to smooth the surfaces of your teeth, making it more difficult for plaque to bond to them. This step also works to prevent gum irritation and gum pockets, symptoms of gum disease.

Floss Between the Teeth

Your hygienist will floss to remove any lingering plaque hiding between the teeth and identify areas where your gums bleed.

Final Examination

Dr. Chan Wilkhu or Dr. Steven Schmid will do a final checkup. If no oral health issues are detected, you’re all done. At this time, your dentist can answer any questions you have about keeping up a clean, healthy smile by brushing, flossing, and visiting the dentist regularly.
