Dental Exam & Cleaning

Let’s be honest! Teeth are free, tooth decay and infection are both expensive and painful, and bad breath is just embarrassing! Regular dental cleanings and exams can prevent all of this!

If plaque is not removed from teeth, then over time it can harden up and form tartar (also known as calculus). This can cause a series of dental problems such as tooth decay, gingivitis (inflammation of gums), bone loss, halitosis (bad breath) and subsequent tooth loss. Professional cleaning at Main Street Dental Clinic removes harmful bacteria and ensures you can enjoy a lifetime of pain free oral health.

What to Expect

Appointment Length: 10-20 minutes

Here at Main Street Dental Clinic in Coatbridge, we may start with a thorough and methodical examination of your teeth and gums, but your thoughts, worries, hopes and dreams are also listened to. A customised treatment plan is then created with different treatment options to suit your needs.

Your dental examination may also include low radiation dental X-rays to detect anything that we can’t see such as bone disease or decay in between teeth or underneath fillings. In addition, all patients are screened for oral cancer in order to quickly implement treatment if needed.

We then use hand instruments and Ultrasonic Scalers to remove plaque and tartar build up around teeth & below the gum line. Comprehensive oral hygiene instructions will then be given to you in order to minimise future tartar build up.

Please schedule an appointment with Main Street Dental Clinic, Coatbridge, Glasgow, for a consultation and assessment.
