At Dental Depot in Mustang, keeping your smile healthy is what we do best. Preventive care — like routine dental checkups and professional teeth cleanings — makes it easy to stay ahead of cavities, protect your gums, and catch small problems before they turn into big headaches. Whether it’s your very first visit or just time for your regular six-month checkup, our friendly team is here to make sure your appointment is thorough, comfortable, and personalized to you — because taking care of your teeth should feel simple and stress-free.
A lot of dental problems don’t come with flashing warning lights — many start quietly, without pain or obvious symptoms. That’s why regular dental checkups are so important. During your comprehensive exam at Dental Depot Mustang, we keep an eye out for early signs of trouble, including:
The sooner we spot a problem, the easier it usually is to fix — often with simple, minimally invasive treatments that save you time, money, and hassle later. Regular dental exams don’t just protect your teeth; they help keep your whole body healthier, too.
Even if you’re a brushing and flossing pro at home, there are places that only a professional cleaning can reach. Over time, plaque can harden into tartar — and once it does, you need a skilled hygienist to safely remove it.
Most dental cleanings take about 45 minutes to an hour, depending on your needs. You’ll leave not only with a fresh, polished smile, but also with the confidence and tools to maintain it between visits.

Regular dental checkups and cleanings provide an array of benefits to your oral and overall health. Routine visits allow your dentist to address any concerns in a timely manner, so little problems don’t become big problems, and to minimize any plaque or bacteria accumulation, which could cause complications in the future like cavities, tooth decay, and gum disease.
The American Dental Association recommends most people visit the dentist every 6 months for a check-up and cleaning. During these visits, a dental hygienist will professionally clean your teeth to remove any plaque or tartar that has accumulated or developed, and a dentist will examine your teeth, mouth, and tongue for any signs of tooth decay, infection, or other health concern. If you have significant problems with your oral health, such as gum disease or severe tooth decay, your dentist may recommend that you come in more frequently so they can monitor and treat your condition.
With Saturday and evening appointments available at many of our Dental Depot Oklahoma locations, we make it easy for you and your family to get the care you need when it works for you, and our ample office space allows us to see everyone in your family at the same time. You can even schedule your next appointment prior to leaving our office.
On average, a dental checkup or cleaning lasts between 30 and 60 minutes. During a checkup or cleaning, a dental hygienist will professionally clean and floss your teeth and the dentist will examine your oral hygiene and assess your risk for oral cancer. The purpose of a dental cleaning is to remove plaque and tartar–which build up and cannot be cleaned with brushing alone–and identify any signs of tooth decay, infection, or other problems like bone loss. The exact length of your appointment will depend on factors like how long it takes the hygienist to clean your teeth, if you are having any x-rays, and if you are receiving any additional treatments such as fluoride. Additionally, many Dental Depot Oklahoma locations offer assisted hygiene–providing hygienists with an extra set of hands to get your teeth prepped and ready to clean.
Dental cleanings are a gentle and non-invasive preventative measure to preserve and maintain gum and tooth health. Usually when one refers to a cleaning it is a prophylaxis dental cleaning, which is intended to prevent cavities, tooth decay, and gum disease from developing. Deep cleaning, on the other hand, is used to treat gum disease by removing bacteria that has formed under infected gum tissue. Dental deep cleaning is also commonly referred to as scaling and root planing. No matter what type of cleaning you receive, all cleanings have the same purpose of removing debris and increasing oral health and overall wellbeing.
Generally speaking, a dental cleaning, dental exam, and dental checkup all happen at the same time during your bi-annual visit to the dentist. The dental cleaning portion of your visit is when the hygienist removes plaque, tartar, and debris from your teeth and gums, professionally brushes them with a strong toothpaste, and flosses them. The dental exam, or dental checkup, is when the dentist assesses your oral health by evaluating each tooth, assessing your gum health, and evaluating your risk for oral cancer.
You and your family can receive all of these services and more at Dental Depot Oklahoma, where we make it easy and convenient to get the affordable care you need for a healthy smile.
