A beautiful, healthy smile that lasts a lifetime is our ultimate goal when treating patients. This all starts with your regular check up and cleaning. Your dental hygiene visits will help contribute to many factors such as:
Prevent gum disease

- Detect dental problems early
- Have a bright white smile
- Prevent bad breath
- Maintain good oral health
Prevention helps avoid serious and costly dental problems and is the key to having a healthy, confident, beautiful smile.
When you schedule a dental hygiene appointment with Dr. Steven Johnson Inc., you will be amazed by how comfortable and relaxed you feel. Your cleaning appointment may include:
- Exams and Diagnosis: Examination of x-rays, gum disease, tooth decay, existing restorations and signs of oral cancer
- Removal of Plaque and Calculus: Plaque is the sticky clear film of bacteria covering your teeth. If plaque is not removed it hardens and turns into calculus in which only dental professionals can remove
- Tooth Polishing: Removes any leftover stain and plaque that is not removed during the scaling session
- Digital X-rays: X-rays reveal valuable information not visible, such as abcessess, cancerous tumors, decay and developmental abnormalities. Digital x-rays reduce the radiation up to 90% of traditional radiographs
- Fluoride Treatment: A great preventative treatment to help protect teeth and aid in cavity prevention
