As a patient of Providence Dentistry, you’ll experience extremely thorough and comfortable checkups. Your dentist uses cutting-edge technology to evaluate your oral health. Our talented and compassionate team goes above and beyond to deliver gentle and personalized care.
Here is what you can expect during your cleaning and exam:
- Thorough Exam – Our team will capture images of your mouth using digital X-rays and intraoral cameras. This allows us to make precise treatment recommendations to improve your smile. We will look for any indications of tooth decay, gum disease, and oral cancer.
- Detailed Cleaning – Your hygienist will clean your teeth with ultrasonic cleaning equipment. It will remove plaque and tartar buildup that can lead to oral health problems. Plus, it polishes away stains for cleaner and smoother-feeling teeth.
- Treatment Planning – If you show signs of gum disease or other issues, your dentist reviews all the details from the exam and information gathered from digital images. You can even see what we see, thanks to our advanced technology. Then your dentist will discuss what’s needed to restore your smile.
Patient-focused values guide everything we do. Our goal is to make every visit pleasant and productive. Our dental team takes time to listen and explain what we see during your exam. You’ll leave our office knowing exactly what the next steps will be to revive your smile and the reasoning behind our recommendations.

I’ve been coming here for years and I have failed to post a review. If you are looking for a great dentist with hospitality, a smile and a place that cares about you rather than your money than this is it. Dr. Tori Irvine is the absolute best that I’ve ever experienced in Charlotte. Sarah the dental hygienist goes above and beyond every time she cleans my teeth. We have a great communication together and I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

2025 update: Hygienist Emily performed a thorough cleaning, and I truly enjoyed interacting with her, as well as doctors Huh and Scott. 2024- Today, a beautiful in-house created porcelain crown was placed at the same visit as my tooth prep. Dr. Patel and assistant Sam couldn’t have been more kind and attentive!! I was also VERY comfortable with the neck pillow they gave to me. I am grateful to the entire Providence Dentistry staff. The front desk staff are also wonderful. Jan 2026: Dr. Huh is a highly skilled doctor! He is on the ball. I am so lucky to have him here at Providence Dentistry.

Dr. Tori Irvine is an excellent professional dentist as well as she is very communicative and enjoys her clients. She will discuss your dental plan in detail so you understand the priorities on what should be done and when. I had gone to her new office quite awhile after she left my previous dental center. I now needed crown work for a broken tooth and some other dental work. My visit was justified and I still prefer only her to plan for and provide the care of my teeth. Her new office and her staff are just as professional and also provided excellent service.

Visited just a few days ago to launch an Implant, and benefitted from a concise, yet thorough, explanation of what the process involves from Dr. Irvine’s personable and clearly competent Assistant, Jackie. I am impressed by the innovative utilization of technology and engineering in the preparation for, construction of and manner of firmly securing the implant. The amount of thought, time and planning involved in this important procedure, plus the obvious skill and caring of Dr. Irvine and her Team have, once again, occasioned my “Thank You” to the source of my initial referral to the practice!

I was there today to get a crown replaced that fell off about two weeks ago, The team work was excellent and the commitment to scheduled appointment time is greatly appreciated. My only regret is that Dr. Moran is leaving the practice to relocate her residence. I have been her patient for almost 18 years and I will miss the excellent care she has given me. I look forward to developing the same relationship and confidence with Dr. Irvine. Entire staff was organized and friendly as well as professional. I was seen right on time of appointment. I was asked about any concerns I had and Dr. Moran examined me after the hygienist had completed the annual cleaning.

I recently visited Providence Dentistry and had the pleasure of being treated by Dr. Michelle Felden — and I couldn’t be more impressed. Her patient care was exceptional from start to finish. She checked in constantly to make sure I was comfortable, paused whenever I needed a break, and clearly explained each stage of the procedure and what to expect next. Even though my “responses” were mostly muffled uh-huh’s and thumbs-ups, she still guided me through the entire process, and I felt completely informed the whole time. Having grown up with my mom as my dental hygienist for over 20 years, my old dental office felt like a second home — so I wasn’t sure I’d ever feel that comfortable switching dentists. But from the moment I walked into Providence Dentistry, from the front desk staff to the hygienists to Dr. Felden herself, I immediately felt at home and completely confident that I was receiving the highest level of care. Dr. Felden’s gentle approach, attention to detail, and communication style made what could have been an anxious experience into one of ease and trust. Thank you to the entire team at Providence Dentistry — I’m already looking forward to bringing some treats for you guys next routine cleaning!
Common Questions About Dental Cleanings and Exams
Why should I get a dental exam if I’m not in pain?
If you wait until you are in pain, you already have a serious problem. On top of that, not all dental problems cause pain. By getting regular exams, you get the benefit of having dental professionals look at your mouth. We can identify potential problems or catch them in the early stages. That allows us to fix them before you may need expensive and invasive treatments.
How often should I get a dental cleaning and exam?
In general, we recommend that a patient come in every six months for a dental exam and cleaning. Routine checkups allow us the chance to keep an eye on your oral health and provide early treatment for any problems we spot. You may need to visit us more often if you’re susceptible to gum disease.
How soon after my cleaning can I eat?
Luckily, there’s no reason to wait to eat after your cleaning. However, your teeth and gums may be a little sensitive. So, you may want to avoid extremely hot, cold, or acidic food and beverages for a few hours. Be sure to ask your dentist if you have any concerns about what you can eat or drink after your appointment.
