We can see you this Thursday at 2 PM. It's $120 for a checkup and cleaning without insurance. Is that okay?

Just your ID and any dental records if you have them. If you have recent X-rays from your dentist in China, bring those too.

Hello! Let's take a look. Please open wide. I'm going to examine each tooth and check your gums. Do you have any concerns?

I see a small cavity on that tooth. We should fill it before it gets worse. Everything else looks good. Your gums are a bit inflamed — do you floss regularly?

A composite filling for that size cavity would be about $180. We could do it today after the cleaning, or schedule another visit.

I'm going to start the cleaning now. I'll use an ultrasonic scaler first, then hand tools. You might feel some vibration and water spray. Raise your left hand if you need me to stop.

There might be some discomfort in sensitive areas. I can use a numbing gel if needed. Just let me know if it's too much.

You have quite a bit of tartar buildup behind your lower front teeth. This is a common area. I need to spend a bit more time here.

Brushing twice a day and flossing daily will help a lot. An electric toothbrush is even better. You should also try to get a professional cleaning every six months.

Some bleeding is normal during cleaning, especially if you have inflamed gums. It should stop shortly after. If your gums bleed when you brush at home, that's a sign of gingivitis.

You can eat right after, but avoid very hot or cold food for a few hours. Your teeth may feel extra sensitive today — that's completely normal.
