Dental Exams & Cleanings
in Fort Wayne
The foundation of a healthy mouth: exhaustive diagnostic exams and unhurried cleanings, twice a year, for life.
Medically reviewed by Dr. Logan Goodrich, Associate Dentist.
In short
Dental exams and cleanings at Middleton Family Dentistry in Fort Wayne pair an exhaustive diagnostic exam with an unhurried cleaning, twice a year for life. Each visit includes digital intraoral imaging, occlusion and oral cancer screening, full-mouth periodontal charting, and ultrasonic plus hand scaling. New and returning patients are welcome, and we file out-of-network on your behalf.
The
work.
A Middleton exam is not a five-minute inspection. We take digital intraoral imaging, check occlusion, screen for oral cancer, and review the condition of every existing restoration. Our hygienists use ultrasonic scaling paired with hand instrumentation, the mix that actually removes biofilm without micro-abrading enamel.
For patients who see us twice a year, decades of problems never happen. That is the work: caught early, addressed gently, resolved permanently.
A good fit if…
- Every patient, new and returning
- Children starting as early as age one
- Patients with a periodontal history needing closer follow-up
- Anyone who has been away from dental care for a while
