At The Fort Collins Dentist, we know life can get busy, but skipping your six-month cleaning and exam can put your oral health at serious risk. Brushing and flossing at home are essential, yet they can’t remove all the plaque and tartar that build up on your teeth and gums. Regular cleanings ensure fresh breath, healthy gums, and teeth free of sensitivity. More importantly, good oral health supports your overall well-being and lowers your risk of conditions like heart disease and diabetes.
What to Expect at Your Appointment
When you come in for a six-month checkup, Dr. Lesko and her team provide a thorough dental exam and professional cleaning. This includes plaque and tartar removal, an oral cancer screening, and digital X-rays when needed. We’ll also polish and floss your teeth so you leave with a fresh, bright smile. Every visit is designed to be comfortable, welcoming, and informative—giving you the tools you need to keep your teeth healthy between appointments.
Preventing Problems Before They Start
One of the biggest benefits of your regular cleaning is early detection. Catching signs of gum disease, tooth decay, or other oral health concerns early makes treatment simpler, less invasive, and less expensive. From tooth-colored fillings to gum therapy and gentle extractions, our general dentistry services ensure you receive the care you need before issues become major problems.
Care for the Whole Family
At The Fort Collins Dentist, we’re proud to provide comprehensive care for every member of your family. From infant oral exams and preventative fluoride treatments to guidance on thumb-sucking habits and treatment for dental injuries, Dr. Lesko and her team create a safe and positive environment for children and teens. Adults benefit from the same attentive, personalized care, ensuring that your entire family enjoys long-term oral health.
Protecting Your Smile and Health
Making time for your six-month cleaning is more than just a dental routine—it’s an investment in your lifelong health. Healthy teeth and gums help you feel confident, avoid costly dental work, and support your overall wellness. If you’re overdue for a visit, don’t wait any longer.
