General Dentistry FAQ’s

Frequently Asked Questions

Most patients benefit from a cleaning and exam every six months. However, patients with a history of gum disease, cavities, or other dental health concerns may need more frequent visits. Dr. Plasha will evaluate your situation at your first appointment and recommend a schedule that fits your specific needs.

Dr. Plasha will perform a thorough clinical exam of your teeth, gums, and soft tissues, followed by a review of your digital X-rays. He checks for cavities, signs of gum disease, oral cancer indicators, and any changes since your last visit. The exam is comprehensive, and he always takes time to walk you through his findings.

Yes. Digital X-rays expose patients to significantly less radiation than traditional film X-rays — up to 80 to 90 percent less. They also produce instant, highly detailed images that allow Dr. Plasha to catch issues that might not be visible to the naked eye, making them both safer and more effective.

The Dental Spot uses composite resin fillings, which are BPA-free and match the natural color of your teeth. Unlike old metal amalgam fillings, composite fillings bond directly to the tooth structure, require less removal of healthy tooth material, and leave no metallic appearance behind.

Absolutely. The Dental Spot is a family-friendly practice, and Dr. Plasha sees patients of all ages including young children. We create a warm, welcoming environment for kids and work to make every visit a positive experience that builds healthy habits for life.
