At Clarkston Dental Care, we want all of our patients to feel comfortable voicing their dental problems and questions to our team. Dental education helps patients care for their teeth and gums even when they aren’t in the office. Dr. Michael Sesi and Dr. Jordan Rabban work with patients to discover the right solutions for their oral health issues.
They want patients to remain educated about their treatment options and teach the best methods to care for their smiles. Here you can learn what to expect at your first dental visit, access resources on our website, and additional information for patients in Clarkston, MI.
Routine Dental Visits For Patients in Clarkston, MI
During your first visit, we will provide you with a thorough dental cleaning. Our dental hygienists offer cleanings to remove plaque and tartar from the smile. They can also perform scaling and root planing.
Scaling removes bacterial buildup on and beneath the gum tissue. Root planing smooths the tooth roots. Scaling and root planing are important treatments for patients with gum inflammation or early signs of gum disease.
We also provide routine x-rays and examinations. Our digital x-rays allow us to take detailed images of the mouth. Because these images are digital, we can save them and send them to specialists as needed.
We can also create three-dimensional models of teeth for orthodontic treatment or find the best areas of the mouth to place stable implants. Dental x-rays are key to creating effective treatment plans.
Our dentists will evaluate your oral health and hygiene after your cleaning. Using x-rays and physical examinations, they will also determine if you require treatment for tooth decay or gum disease.
Additionally, our dentists will assess you for further restorative, cosmetic, or general dental care. They may assess your need for fluoride treatments or check your bite and jaw for problems.

New Patient Q&A
If you are new to our practice, you can learn about our office and general dental care with answers to these questions:
Does Clarkston Dental Care accept new patients?
Yes, our office is accepting new patients to visit our office. Whether you solely require routine cleanings or have a specific dental problem, we can help you get the treatment you need.
What do I need to bring to my first dental visit?
At your first dental visit, you need to bring your insurance card, photo ID, and method of payment. We will also ask that you please provide us with the information of your last dental office prior to your visit so we can access your dental records.
Do you accept dental insurance?
Yes, we are in-network with Delta. We also work with other insurance providers to ensure that you get the care you need. Our office also files claims at the time of service.
How often should I make a dental appointment?
Patients should visit the dentist biannually, or twice a year. We may recommend that you visit our office on a more frequent basis if you have chronic health problems. If you require urgent dental care, don’t wait. Call our office and we can see you for prompt treatment.
When should I take my child to their first dental visit?
Once your child’s baby teeth come in, you should make their first dental appointment. Typically, we recommend patients schedule their child’s first visit after they turn one. Early dental visits build healthy habits so younger patients can eventually learn how to care for their smiles.
