Dental Cleanings & Exams in Redlands, CA

Why Routine Dental Visits Matter

Cleanings and exams play a critical role in preventing tooth decay, gum disease, and other oral health problems. Even if you brush and floss daily, professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup that home care can’t.

Our comprehensive dental exams also allow us to:

• Detect early signs of cavities and gum disease
  
  
• Check for oral abnormalities
  
  
• Monitor existing dental restorations
  
  
• Support your long-term dental and overall health
  
  

We customize every visit to your needs—whether you’re managing an ongoing concern like sleep apnea, or preparing for cosmetic or restorative treatments like veneers or dental implants.

What’s Included in Your Visit

Your dental cleaning and exam appointment at ViVE Dental typically includes:

Gentle Cleaning

Our hygienists will carefully remove tartar and plaque buildup, polish your teeth to remove stains, and provide tips to improve your at-home care.

Detailed Exam

Dr. Linda Sah will examine your teeth, gums, and bite, checking for early signs of decay, inflammation, or other concerns. We may recommend further treatment if needed, such as a root canal or dentures for advanced issues.

Smile Goals

We’ll discuss your personal goals and answer any questions about elective services like Zoom Teeth Whitening or Invisalign, which pair beautifully with a clean, healthy foundation.

Dental Care for All Ages

From toddlers to seniors, we make preventive care comfortable and accessible for the whole family. Our pediatric dentistry services are designed to help kids build healthy habits early, with fun and educational experiences at every visit.

If you're an adult looking to maintain your smile between other treatments—like veneers or Invisalign—routine cleanings are essential to long-term success.

How Often Should You Get a Cleaning?

Most patients benefit from cleanings and exams every six months. If you have certain risk factors like gum disease, frequent cavities, or past dental work, Dr. Sah may recommend more frequent visits to protect your smile.
