Cleanings & Checkups

A True Local’s Choice for
Teeth Cleaning in Lake Grove

It’s not every day you look forward to visiting a Nesconset dental office for your teeth cleaning. However, at Smith Haven Dental, our team likes to think of these appointments as your chance to check in with a friend who can lend you an ear and give you advice. When you come in for your exam, your smile gets the care it deserves without the stress.

The Steps That Keep Your
Smile at Its Best

A thorough teeth cleaning and checkup is more than just a routine. It’s a roadmap to keeping your smile healthy for life. Here’s how we approach it:

Step 1

Check-In and Chat

We catch up on your oral health with a visual exam, some scans, and a conversation with you.

The more information we have, the better care we can provide. No judgements here!

Step 2

A Smile Deep Clean

Plaque and tartar don’t stand a chance as we remove buildup and polish your smile to perfection.

Most appointments take an hour or less. It’s a quick stop in your day.

Step 3

A Spot Check for Changes

Our St. James dentist checks for any subtle or major changes, from your enamel to your gum health. We keep you in the loop.

Mouth cancer can present with unusual lumps, discoloration, or persistent sores.

Step 4

Guidance Built for You

You’ll walk out knowing exactly what’s next for your oral health, armed with at-home tips and treatment plans.

Typically, every six months. If you have specific needs, we may see you more often.

Keeping Small Problems from Becoming Big Ones

Prevention is where general dentistry truly shines. Catching issues early saves time, stress, and money, helping you stay ahead of problems instead of playing catch-up later. Our preventative treatments:

Secure

Fluoride treatments strengthen enamel and help protect against decay.

Seal

Thin, protective dental sealants shield molars from cavities before they start.

Screen

Oral cancer screenings are included in all adult visits, catching signs early.

Great Smiles Don’t
Happen by Accident

Consistency matters. Our dentist is part detective, part lifestyle guru, and part cheerleader. With each visit, we learn more about your habits and goals, cutting down on the time needed to get up to speed, find practical solutions, and guide you back to health. We can even notice the small changes, sometimes before you do. And all you have to do is visit us twice a year!

The Difference Is in the Details
