Comprehensive Dental Exams and Checkups

A dental exam is an opportunity to evaluate your overall oral health and catch problems before they become painful or more difficult to treat.

During your appointment, Dr. Salizzoni may examine your teeth, gums, bite, existing dental work, and other areas of your mouth. Depending on your needs, your visit may include dental imaging or additional evaluation of specific concerns.

​

Routine dental exams can help identify:

  • Tooth decay and cavities

  • Gum inflammation and periodontal disease

  • Cracked, chipped, or worn teeth

  • Changes in existing fillings or crowns

  • Bite-related concerns

  • Signs of infection

  • Areas that may require additional preventive or restorative care

How Often Should You Schedule a Dental Cleaning?

Many patients benefit from professional dental cleanings and exams approximately every six months. However, your ideal schedule depends on your oral health, medical history, and individual risk factors.

​

Patients with gum disease, frequent cavities, or other ongoing concerns may require more frequent visits. Dr. Salizzoni and our dental team can recommend an appointment schedule based on your specific needs.

​

If it has been a while since your last cleaning, we can evaluate your oral health and help you get back on track.

Dental Cleanings and PPO Insurance

Routine dental cleanings and exams are commonly included in dental insurance plans, although coverage depends on the details of your individual policy.

​

Pascack Valley Dental works with patients to help them understand their insurance benefits and available payment options. Many PPO plans provide coverage for preventive dental care, and eligible patients may have little or no out-of-pocket cost for routine cleanings.
