Protect your Smile with Cleanings and Exams from Redlands Family Dental


At Redlands Family Dental, we provide comprehensive dental exams and cleanings for all ages! Routine dental checkups are necessary in order to maintain a beautiful and healthy smile and to detect possible oral problems early. Detected problems save you time and money, as we can diagnose and treat problems that may result in more expensive treatments. While your oral needs vary from patient to patient, generally you and your family should have checkups at least twice a year. Consulting with Dr. Cesario will allow us to ascertain the needs of you and your family!

When you visit our dental practice in Redlands, California you will receive a comprehensive exam by Dr. Cesario following your initial dental visit. During your routine checkups we will perform the following:

  • Examination of diagnostic X-rays (radiographs): Essential for detection of decay, tumors, cysts, and bone loss.  X-rays also help determine tooth and root positions.
  • Oral cancer screening: Check the face, neck, lips, tongue, throat, tissues, and gums for any signs of oral cancer.
  • Gum disease evaluation: Check the gums and bone around the teeth for any signs of periodontal disease.
  • Examination of tooth decay: All tooth surfaces will be checked for decay with special dental instruments.
  • Examination of existing restorations: Check current fillings, crowns, etc.

During a dental cleaning, we will provide the following: 

  • Removal of calculus (tartar): Calculus is hardened plaque that has been left on the tooth for some time and is now firmly attached to the tooth surface.  Calculus forms above and below the gum line and can only be removed with special dental instruments.
  • Removal of plaque: Plaque is a sticky, almost invisible film that forms on the teeth.  It is a growing colony of living bacteria, food debris, and saliva.  The bacteria produce toxins (poisons) that inflame the gums.  This inflammation is the start of periodontal disease!
  • Teeth polishing: Remove stain and plaque that is not otherwise removed during tooth brushing and scaling.
