Miami Dental Cleanings & Exams

A healthier life starts with a healthier smile

Clean teeth,

better whole-body health

If you are due for a checkup, it’s normal to feel unsure about what your mouth might reveal. Many people worry about sensitivity, gum health, or whether they have been brushing “well enough.” Our goal is to make this visit feel supportive for everyone.

At Real Smile Dentistry, your Miami dental cleanings and checkups are a chance to check in on your whole-body health. Your gums tell us about inflammation. Your breathing patterns influence how your mouth feels. Even your sleep and stress levels show up in small ways during an exam.

We help you understand what is healthy, what needs attention, and what small habits can make a big difference. Whether you visit our Miami Beach or North Miami office, we want you to feel cared for, understood, and confident about your next steps.

Get ready

for your preventive visit

  • Comprehensive oral and airway assessment : We assess your gums, teeth, bite, and airway to identify inflammation, early signs of periodontal disease, breathing issues, or bite imbalances.
  • Full intraoral x-rays: High-resolution digital x-rays allow us to detect decay, bone health concerns, infections, and hidden issues that are not visible to the eye.
  • Gentle professional cleaning: Your hygienist removes plaque and tartar above and below the gumline, then polishes the teeth for a smooth, clean finish.
  • Cancer screening for peace of mind: Every checkup includes a thorough oral cancer screening. We examine the tongue, cheeks, lips, throat, and soft tissues to catch abnormalities early.

FAQs

What happens during a dental cleaning?

A Miami dental cleaning at Real Smile Dentistry includes plaque and tartar removal, polishing, full intraoral x-rays, and an oral cancer screening. We also evaluate your airway, gums, and bite to support your overall health.

How often should I get a dental cleaning?

Most patients benefit from cleanings every 6 months. If you have gum inflammation or mouth-breathing habits that increase plaque buildup, we may recommend more frequent visits.

Why is airway-centered dentistry important during a cleaning?

Your airway affects your oral environment, breathing patterns, sleep quality, and inflammation. Mouth breathing can dry the tissues and increase plaque buildup. Identifying these issues helps us support your long-term health.

Will my cleaning be comfortable?

Yes! Our hygienists use gentle techniques and advanced instruments designed to make your visit easy.

What are the signs I might need an earlier cleaning?

Symptoms may include bleeding gums, bad breath, soreness, dry mouth, or visible tartar. Changes in your breathing or sleep patterns can also affect your gum health and may require additional care.

“Why do I still get plaque even when I brush and floss?”

Plaque forms from bacteria, saliva proteins, and food particles. Even excellent daily hygiene cannot remove hardened tartar.

Professional cleanings reach areas that brushes cannot. Airway problems, mouth breathing, and bite imbalances can also increase plaque buildup. We identify these deeper causes so your cleaning results last longer.

I’ve been coming here for over 25 years, and at this point, they’re more like family than just my dentist. Dr. Nassery is not only incredibly skilled but also truly cares about his patients. I wouldn’t trust my smile with anyone else! Hands down the best dentist in town!

I came to Dr. Nassery with severe pain from what I thought was TMJ. Without surgery, he has completely fixed my jaw and I’m 100% pain-free. He’s a true expert. Office staff is also lovely, very helpful and always on time.
