Dental Exams

Regular check ups are key to your dental health. Next to brushing and flossing, visiting the dental office is the best thing you can do to maintain your oral health. Check ups are not just to check for cavities and are not just for kids. They are designed to prevent dental problems before they start and ensure existing problems do not worsen. We check:

• fillings, crowns and other repairs that are beginning to deteriorate and are no longer in good shape
• root cavities or cavities that form when gums recede or teeth cavities around existing fillings
• tiny fractures in a tooth
• impacted wisdom teeth
• early signs of gum disease
• early signs of oral cancer
