Professional Dental Cleanings and Exams in Aventura
Regular dental cleanings are the single most effective way to prevent cavities, gum disease, and costly dental problems. At Dental Care Group in Aventura, our hygiene team provides thorough professional cleanings combined with comprehensive exams and digital X-rays at our office on NE 207th Street. With over 55 years of serving Miami-Dade County, we make preventive care comfortable, efficient, and accessible—including Saturday appointments for busy Aventura residents.
Whether you’re a new patient taking advantage of our $99 new patient special (exam and necessary X-rays) or a longtime patient coming in for your regular checkup, our Aventura cleaning appointments go beyond just polishing your teeth. We screen for oral cancer, evaluate your gum health, check existing dental work, and identify potential problems before they become emergencies.
What Happens During a Dental Cleaning in Aventura
A typical cleaning appointment at our Aventura office includes professional plaque and tartar removal using ultrasonic and hand instruments, polishing to remove surface stains, flossing and fluoride treatment, and a thorough exam by Dr. Mars. We use digital X-rays that expose you to up to 80% less radiation than traditional film X-rays, and intraoral cameras that let you see what we see. Our multilingual team explains all findings in English, Spanish, Russian, Hebrew, Portuguese, or Creole.
For patients with gum disease, we offer scaling and root planing (deep cleaning) and periodontal maintenance programs. Learn more about the full range of cleaning services on our cleanings and exams hub page.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a dental cleaning cost at Dental Care Group in Aventura?
Routine dental cleanings at our Aventura office are covered by most dental insurance plans at little to no out-of-pocket cost. For new patients without insurance, Dental Care Group offers a $99 new patient special that includes an exam and necessary X-rays. We provide transparent pricing for all cleaning types—from routine prophylaxis to deep cleanings. Call (305) 935-2797 to schedule.
How often should I get my teeth cleaned in Aventura?
Most patients benefit from professional cleanings every six months. Patients with gum disease or higher risk factors may need cleanings every three to four months. Dr. Mars and our hygiene team at our Aventura office create a personalized schedule based on your oral health needs—not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Does a dental cleaning hurt?
Routine dental cleanings at our Aventura office are generally painless. Patients with sensitive teeth or significant tartar buildup may experience mild discomfort, and our hygienists adjust their technique accordingly. For deep cleanings (scaling and root planing), we offer local anesthesia to ensure complete comfort throughout the procedure.
What’s the difference between a regular cleaning and a deep cleaning?
A regular cleaning (prophylaxis) removes plaque and tartar above and slightly below the gumline—it’s preventive maintenance. A deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) goes further below the gumline to remove bacteria and tartar from the root surfaces—it’s a treatment for existing gum disease. Our Aventura team determines which type you need based on your periodontal evaluation.
Does the Aventura office accept my dental insurance for cleanings?
Dental Care Group in Aventura accepts most major dental insurance plans. Our front desk team verifies your benefits before your appointment so you know your coverage and any out-of-pocket costs in advance. Preventive cleanings are covered by virtually all dental insurance plans, typically at 100%.
Can I book a Saturday dental cleaning at the Aventura office?
Yes, our Aventura office offers Saturday appointments specifically for patients who can’t visit during the work week. Saturday cleaning appointments are popular with Aventura’s working professionals, so we recommend booking in advance. Call (305) 935-2797 or use our online scheduling system to reserve your preferred time.
