Regular Dental Checkup
Maintaining Good Oral Health is important to your overall health as well.
In addition to daily oral hygiene practices like brushing and flossing, you can help protect your oral health by seeing your dentist regularly for checkups.
It’s normally recommended to get a dental checkup every six months, but a dentist may recommend more frequent or fewer visits, depending on your dental health history and oral cavity conditions.
Routine Dental Checkup
The routine dental checkup visit usually includes the following oral healthcare activities:
Two oral healthcare professionals, our dentist, and the dental hygienist will likely examine you.
CLEANING AND POLISHING: The hygienists generally examine only your gums and clean your teeth as well as polishes them.
After the cleaning, our hygienist or dentist will discuss any dental hygiene problems that were detected and show you how to brush and floss more effectively, if necessary.
ORAL EXAM AND HISTORY TAKING: Our dentist will also conduct an oral exam of your gums and teeth, review the cleaning done by the hygienist, asks for your medical history, diagnose any dental problem if you have, and recommend you the treatment according to it.
X-RAYS: At some of your dental visits, our dentist may decide to take X-rays of your teeth to look for any dental problems such as decay, gum disease, or other dental problems.
Comprehensive Examination
Sometimes you may have a more thorough and detailed dental checkup, which is called a comprehensive examination.
This examination involves a thorough examination of your mouth, head, and neck as well as your lymph nodes.
In addition to examining your neck and mouth, our dentist will look for signs of oral cancer in your mouth.
This is great because if oral cancer goes undetected, it can develop into a life-threatening illness.
It is important to communicate openly with our dentist to inform him about your concerns and issues.
Make sure to inform about any medical history or the medications in use prior to any treatment to avoid any sort of complications or side effects.
