However, at Cambridge Dental Associates, we follow current dental standards, ensuring all new patients receive a comprehensive oral examination and any necessary X-rays. This approach allows the dentist to completely understand your oral health before proceeding with care. If cleaning is the appropriate next step, we often have same-day appointments available.
