​
Comprehensive Dental Exams:
Regular dental exams are essential for maintaining optimal oral health and preventing dental problems before they escalate. Our comprehensive dental exams go beyond just checking for cavities; they involve a thorough assessment of your entire mouth, including:
-
Oral Cancer Screening: Early detection is key to successfully treating oral cancer. During your exam, our dentist will carefully examine your mouth, throat, lips, and gums for any signs of abnormal tissue or lesions.
-
Gum Disease Evaluation: Gum disease can lead to serious oral health issues if left untreated. We'll assess the health of your gums, checking for signs of inflammation, bleeding, or recession.
-
Tooth Decay Detection: Using advanced diagnostic tools, we'll identify any areas of decay or damage on your teeth and recommend appropriate treatment options.
-
Bite and Jaw Alignment: A misaligned bite or jaw can contribute to various dental problems, including tooth wear, headaches, and jaw pain. We'll evaluate your bite and jaw alignment to ensure optimal function and comfort.
-
X-rays and Imaging: In some cases, dental X-rays or other imaging techniques may be necessary to detect hidden dental issues, such as cavities between teeth or impacted wisdom teeth.
​
Teeth Cleaning Services:
Professional teeth cleanings are an essential part of maintaining good oral hygiene and preventing dental problems. Our skilled dental hygienists will perform a thorough cleaning to remove plaque, tartar, and surface stains from your teeth, including:
-
Scaling: Using specialized instruments, we'll carefully remove plaque and tartar buildup from the surfaces of your teeth, including below the gumline where bacteria often accumulate.
-
Polishing: After scaling, we'll polish your teeth to remove surface stains and create a smooth, shiny surface that resists plaque buildup.
-
Flossing: Our dental hygienist will floss between your teeth to remove plaque and debris from areas that are difficult to reach with a toothbrush.
​
Benefits of Regular Exams and Cleanings:
Routine dental exams and cleanings offer numerous benefits, including:
-
Early Detection of Dental Problems: Regular exams allow us to identify and address dental issues in their earliest stages, preventing them from becoming more serious and costly to treat.
-
Improved Oral Health: Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup, reducing your risk of cavities, gum disease, and other oral health problems.
-
Fresher Breath: Removing plaque and tartar from your teeth can help eliminate bad breath and leave your mouth feeling fresh and clean.
-
Enhanced Overall Health: Research has shown that there is a link between oral health and systemic health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and respiratory infections. By maintaining good oral hygiene, you can help protect your overall health and well-being.
