Treatment
Dental Exam
A thorough checkup of your teeth, gums, and bite that catches problems early and keeps you healthy.
A dental exam is a complete check of your teeth, gums, bite, and soft tissues. It often includes digital x-rays and is the foundation of preventive care.
Your dentist looks over each tooth and your gums, checks your bite, and reviews any x-rays. Anything that needs attention is explained in plain terms, along with your options.
Regular exams catch decay, gum issues, and other concerns while they are small and easy to treat, which saves you time, money, and discomfort later.
