What Happens During a Dental Exam?

  • Health History Review: Your dentist will ask about your medical and dental history to understand your unique needs.
  • Comprehensive Oral Examination: The dentist will check for cavities, cracks, or other tooth damage. They will also examine your gums for signs of gingivitis or periodontitis and screen for oral cancer or other abnormalities in the mouth.
  • Digital X-rays (if needed): If necessary, X-rays will be taken to examine the structure of your teeth, roots, and jaw, helping to identify hidden issues.
  • Bite and Jaw Alignment Check: The dentist will ensure your bite is properly aligned and check for any jaw issues that might require attention.
