Dental Exams

A dental examination is a close inspection of the teeth and tissues of the mouth using physical observations, radiography, and other diagnostic aids. It identifies tooth decay, assesses the health of the gums, oral tissues as well as the oral hygiene of the patient. The dentist then makes recommendations on the best treatment options for the patient.

Signs that you need a dental exam

Several symptoms call for you to have a dental examination. If you begin having a toothache, it may be a symptom of dental disease, therefore, it means you should have your teeth looked at by a professional dentist. Sensitive teeth, bleeding gums, and having sores in the mouth are also other conditions that mean a dental examination is needed.

Key benefits of having a Dental Exam

  • A dental examination provides an opportunity to stop gum disease, tooth decay, and other oral health issues from occurring in the first place. It enables the treatment to save your teeth begin sooner, therefore, saving your money.
  • It avails an opportunity to have your teeth cleaned. A dental hygiene professional can get rid of plaque and tartar hid between your teeth or along the gum line using special tools. It is not a task you can do at home using a teeth brush.
  • A dental examination also promotes your overall health. A dentist can detect early signs of heart disease, diabetes, and other health conditions because the health of your mouth is related to your overall health. For instance, patients with diabetes are more likely to have cavities and gum disease due to high blood sugar.
