Why are Regular Dental Checkups & Cleanings Important?
All too often, patients think that they only need to schedule an appointment when something is wrong, like their gums bleed when they floss. The truth is that many oral health problems – from tooth decay to gum disease – can develop and progress under the radar. By the time you notice that something is wrong, it’s too late. We want to prevent that from happening! With biannual checkups and cleanings, we can catch (and treat!) dental trouble in the early stages as well as remove harmful plaque and tartar.
What to Expect During a Dental Checkup
Whether you’re a new patient or you’ve become a friend over the years, our dentist in San Juan Capistrano, Dr. Ben Omrani, will spend one-on-one time with you to learn all about your dental needs and smile goals. He will also review your latest X-rays, conduct a visual exam, and complete an oral cancer screening. If he finds anything concerning, he will bring it to your attention and share his recommendations on how to proceed. If everything looks good, he will answer any questions you have and see you at your next visit!
What to Expect During a Dental Cleaning
Your dental cleaning will be with one of our caring, gentle, and experienced dental hygienists.

When they are done, they will polish and floss your teeth as well, making them look and feel amazing.
