Exams and Cleanings
Greensboro Family Dental Exams & Checkups
Regular dental exams and cleanings are one of the most important resources to rely on when it comes to preventing tooth decay, dental emergencies, and gum disease.
For people with relatively healthy smiles, Dr. Adornetto recommends a dental cleaning appointment every six months. During your preventative dental cleaning and exam, some of the steps we’ll take include:
- Screening for periodontal disease
- Oral cancer exam
- Fluoride and sealants (as needed)
- Oral hygiene instruction
- Orthodontic evaluations
- TMJ exam
- Evaluating leaky fillings, worn teeth, tooth decay

Dental Cleaning Cost
Most dental insurance plans cover preventative dental cleaning costs at or near 100%, up to twice a year. However, if you don’t have dental insurance, we can help! Dr. Adornetto provides an in-house insurance alternative that includes discounts and covered services similar to traditional benefit plans (but without the middleman).
Dental Cleaning FAQ:
Can I schedule dental exams while pregnant?
Yes, and you should! Gum disease can increase your chances of preeclampsia, pre-term birth, and low birth weight in infants.
Can I get dental cleanings during COVID-19?
Yes. Our Greensboro family dentist office is consistently monitoring all CDC and ADA recommendations, implementing added safety protocols for both our patients and staff.
Why are my gums bleeding?
Bleeding gums is a common symptom of gingivitis and periodontal disease. Schedule an exam to find out which it is.
