Preventive Dentistry Services
Preventive dentistry is the foundation of lifelong oral health. Rather than waiting for dental problems to develop, preventive care focuses on identifying risks early, maintaining healthy teeth and gums, and helping patients avoid more complex and costly treatment in the future.
At Advanced Dentistry of Virginia, we believe that routine preventive care is one of the most important investments you can make in your smile. Through comprehensive dental examinations, professional cleanings, oral cancer screenings, digital diagnostics, and personalized home care recommendations, our team helps patients maintain healthy, confident smiles at every stage of life.
Regular preventive visits allow us to detect cavities, gum disease, bite-related concerns, worn restorations, and other oral health issues before they become more serious. These appointments also provide an opportunity to discuss changes in your health, review your oral hygiene routine, and create a customized plan to support your long-term wellness.
Whether you are visiting for a routine checkup or looking to establish a proactive approach to your dental health, our preventive services are designed to help you protect your smile, preserve your natural teeth, and enjoy optimal oral health for years to come.

Preventive care is one of the most important investments you can make in your long-term health and quality of life.
Dental Examination
Comprehensive dental exams allow our team to detect cavities, worn restorations, bite concerns, gum disease, and other oral health issues early—helping you maintain a healthy smile and avoid more extensive treatment whenever possible.
Cleanings (prophylaxis)
Professional dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup that brushing and flossing alone cannot reach. Regular cleanings help prevent cavities, gum disease, bad breath, and support long-term oral health.
Oral Cancer Screening
Oral cancer screenings are a routine part of preventive care at our office. Early detection can significantly improve treatment outcomes and provides peace of mind as we evaluate your oral tissues for any abnormalities.
Real reviews. Real patients.

Thank you all, and God bless!Posted on Google Carol FowlerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My appointment today was for a new patient comprehensive exam. The front desk receptionist, Susan, was very friendly and welcoming. My hygienist, Katy, collected my medical and dental history. She was great! She explained everything to me that I could expect to have done today, including X-rays. She was thorough and calming for me and did an excellent job with my X-rays. Dr. Camino performed the most thorough head, neck and dental examination I’ve ever had. Following the exam and X-rays, Dr. Camino reviewed the results with me along with options for a treatment plan. I was given a breakdown of the treatment plan with the expected costs and payment options. I was very pleased with my visit. I have scheduled my next appointment.Posted on Google Wayne PinchefskyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wonderful experience!
