Having regular oral assessments allows you to take a proactive stand to sustain the health of your smile. A thorough dental exam at Elegant Smiles diagnoses tooth decay, gum disease, oral cancer, and various other problems that might be influencing your oral and general health. Usually carried out at biannual teeth cleaning appointments, dental exams enable our doctors to examine the teeth, gums, bite position, jawbone, and further oral checkpoints and might ensure immediate detection and treatment of oral conditions. Even if you are brushing and flossing your teeth perfectly at home, it can still be beneficial to get a professional dental cleaning at Elegant Smiles twice a year. Using state-of-the-art tools, a biannual dental cleaning can remove built-up plaque and tartar while polishing the enamel for a brighter, healthier smile. To maintain the wellness and beauty of your mouth, schedule a dental exam and cleaning at our Las Vegas, NV practice soon.
What to Expect During Your Visit
Patients young and old can benefit from dental exams and cleanings at least twice a year. At our Las Vegas, NV office, a dental consultation begins with a discussion about your health. A team member also may ask about any oral problems or cosmetic smile goals you have to discover more about your total oral wellness. During particular yearly exams, a series of advanced x-rays may be done to provide enhanced insight into the wellness of your teeth and jawbone. Our dentists then will conduct a screening for oral cancer, check the balance of your bite and temporomandibular joints, and assess your teeth for irregularities and the comfort of any dental appliances. A periodontal evaluation might also be carried out to find potential areas of gum disease.
A professional cleaning starts by removing the plaque and tartar that have built up in your mouth, which can be difficult to treat on your own, no matter how often you brush and floss. Special instruments are used to remove tartar without harming the tooth. First, an ultrasonic device addresses bigger chunks of tartar with high-speed vibrations and a lubricating mist. Then, handheld instruments, like a curette or scaler, will be used to remove smaller pieces. Each tooth needs to be individually scaled to get all the tartar. Once the teeth have been cleaned, the enamel will be polished to remove stains and strengthen the teeth. If needed or requested, a fluoride treatment can be performed after the cleaning. After your exam and cleaning, your technician can help you develop a good home oral care routine by demonstrating techniques or recommending specific products that may help you with your specific concerns.
Elegant Smiles Reviews
I highly recommend Elegant Smiles Dental office. Both drs are very personable, provide excellent dental care, and treat their patients like family. Special time is set aside for each patient, so don’t expect the cattle herding wait times in this office, because your time is valued here. The atmosphere is pleasant and peaceful. All the staff is wonderful and caring.
One day while searching for a great dental practice in Las Vegas, I discovered Elegant Smiles and loved what I read about the husband and wife dental team as well as the wonderful reviews left by happy clients. I was overjoyed when I found out that they accepted my insurance. 25 years ago I cracked a molar and subsequently chose to receive a dental implant from another specialist. My implant is doing just fine, but I love the experience Dr. Phan has in this area, so I chose him as my dentist. I am one happy patient!!!! I absolutely love this practice!!! All of the staff here, and Dr. Phan are so amazing! I have always been one to get dental cleanings every 3 months because I hate the feeling of tartar buildup. Dr. Phan did my cleaning 6 months ago ( my next one is less than 2 weeks away), and I have not felt bothered with tartar. Fabulous dentist! I’m confident his wife is also an amazing dentist as well. I haven’t met her yet, but am willing to see her if needed. I’m in great hands here, and highly recommend Elegant Smiles for your dental care.
I was simply amazed with my visit at Elegant Smiles. Upon my arrival I was welcomed by a very warm front office person. In less than 10 minutes I was in the dental chair. The hygienist gave the best teeth cleaning that I had ever experienced. While cleaning my teeth she explained everything that she was doing and provided an explanation. When she was finished she took pics and shared issues of concern and she gave me advice on how I could improve upon my dental care. Dr. Eileen Huynh then came in to review the X-rays and examine my teeth. Dr. Huynh was absolutely incredible! She provided me with sound advice as to how to approach the dental work that was needed. However what I recognized to be most important was her asking me for my input and her wanting me to be very clear on what was needed and the expectations. Dr. Huynh and her staff were absolutely amazing! This was the best dental visit that I had ever experienced. Needless to say I am looking forward to my next visit and I cannot wait to share my experience with friends and family.
I wish I could give more stars to be honest. I came to Elegant Smiles following a terrible experience at a previous dental office, that left me with an infection, a lot of pain, and needing significant work. Elegant Smiles was recommended by a co-worker who raved about them. I was in quite a bit of pain and the receptionist was kind and worked to get me in immediately. At my first examination Dr. Phan made me feel comfortable and confident in his ability to fix the issue right away. The facility is state of the art. No walking from one x-ray machine and back. You sit in a massage chair and the x-ray machine comes to you. All the work happens, and you don't leave the chair once. Following that exam, I was immediately offered a teeth cleaning. I don't know the Dental Hygienists name, but she was excellent! She utilized a state-of-the-art water powered tool that doesn't hurt and require a lot of the normal tooth scraping with tools. She also made me laugh quite a bit and my teeth felt wonderful when I left.On my recent appointment yesterday the dental assistant Ricky greeted me at my chair warmly and gave me detailed information on all the work being completed that day. I had a large filling and a temp crown placement happening. The numbing was easy, the work was comfortable, and the sanitizing procedures they use in prepping my tooth for the crown made me feel confident. They show you scans of your teeth as they occur, and you never once feel confused as to what is happening in your mouth. My temp fits like a charm and I have no pain or sensitivity at all. Dr. Phan and Ricky worked so well together start to finish. I never thought getting a crown would be so easy. The best decision I made was switching to this office. I will never go anywhere else.
