A comprehensive approach to your routine dental exam
New patients are required to complete an initial oral exam (dental exam) before any procedure is assessed. Your health is important to us. And for that reason, a full oral exam is required to learn about your overall health and detect all possible dental concerns. Aside from common problems like cavities, more serious issues like periodontal disease need to be detected early. Once we understand your unique situation, we’ll discuss recommendations that best fit your needs. During your regular dental exams, our Weston Dental Specialists Group team will examine your mouth and check for:
- Tooth decay
- Cavities
- Signs of gum disease
- Signs of teeth grinding and clenching
- Overall function and condition of face, neck, and jaw bones
- Previous dental work like crowns, fillings, implants, root canals, etc.
- Oral cancer screening
- Check for gum recession and measure pocket depth
