Dental Exams & Cleanings

Dental Exams & Cleanings

The Easy Path To Lifelong Oral Health

Proper oral hygiene involves not only healthy brushing and flossing habits at home, but also regular dental visits. Regular dental exams and cleanings are a low-effort yet essential part of keeping your smile healthy. 

Checkups every six months allow just enough time for Dr. Singla to monitor any cavities, infection, or gum disease that might be brewing. Stop issues before they have a chance to start and give your smile the best chance at long-lasting health – schedule an appointment with our friendly dental team in Duncanville today!

What are Dental Exams & Cleanings

Singla and staff are professional and do great work. Highly recommend them.

How They Help Your Smile​

Dental exams and cleanings help us to:

  • avoid or address cavities
  • detect signs of oral cancer
  • check for loose or lost restorations
  • stop infections 
  • spot damaged or compromised teeth or enamel
  • remove hardened plaque or “calculus” from your teeth 
  • prevent or treat gum disease (known as “periodontal disease”)

When Should You Start?

Children as young as one or two years old can and should come in for their first preventative care appointment. 

Ideally, these appointments should be done every six months to keep up with the health of your smile. However, it is never too late to come in for an exam and cleaning, as we can help to establish the care that you need.

Our Dental Cleanings Process

Here’s what you can expect when visiting our dentist for a dental exam and cleaning: 

  1. One of our hygienists will take x-rays of your teeth that will be useful in detecting problems.
  2. They clean, floss, and polish your teeth.
  3. They will check your gums for signs of inflammation and gum pocketing. 
  4. Then Dr. Singla will come into the room and perform your thorough but gentle  exam.
  5. Dr. Singla will create a treatment plan that is specific to your dental needs and can schedule you to have this work done as needed.

11/26/26: I was having severe tooth/jaw pain for the past few days to the point that I was unable to sleep last night. I did some googling and called Dr Singla’s office first thing in the morning and was able to get an appointment same day. Unfortunately I had to have a tooth extracted which took wayyyyy longer than usual, but the office was beautiful and clean, the entire staff was very friendly, very accommodating, very understanding, and I appreciated there was no judgment about my situation (at least not to my face lol). I appreciated the patience and persistence Dr Singla displayed with my situation. I needed a new dentist anyway and it looks like I found one.

I've been going to Singla Dental for many years, and every visit reinforces why it's my top choice for dental care. My most recent appointment was primarily for a cleaning, and Leslie did a wonderful job. This was my first time meeting her, but she immediately put me at ease by asking about any concerns I might have. She also clearly explained what she would be doing, both before starting and throughout the process. After the cleaning, I spoke with Dr. Singla about a separate issue I have been having with my mouth. He recommended a clear course of action, and his office even made the necessary calls to help get things started, which has been a tremendous help for me.

You are always a welcoming smile and interesting conversation when we see you! Ty for the continued support.

I can truly say I enjoyed getting my teeth cleaned today. Lesley, the Registered Dental Hygienists, was very meticulous and caring. I have been with this dental office for years and I loved Dr. Dunn. Dr. Singla has continued the caring practice with added technology and office ambiance that really makes you feel cared for and appreciated as a patient.

Thank you for the kind words Marion!
