Examination

The Examination

Your dental health and smile matters to us, so your first examination at our clinic is very important.

Our dentists will develop a dental care plan for your teeth and smile  based on a digital x-rays and a professional dental examination. After you are completely satisfied with the suggested solutions we will schedule any care necessary.

Oral Hygiene

First a thorough examination of the areas where bacteria and toxins may have collected in your mouth will be conducted.

Existing restorations

We will assess the health, durability, function and life expectancy of any existing dental work in your mouth.

Bite and jaw

We will assess your occlusion (how your teeth meet and move across each other) and jaw joints and discuss any issues that could be wearing your teeth down or causing tooth fractures, headaches, or broken restorations.

Medical history

Your overall health and dental history will be evaluated to determine if anything less obvious is affecting your dental health, including cardiac disease, high blood pressure and diabetes.

Oral cancer check

To identify any abnormal oral tissue for a thorough oral cancer screening.

Digital X-Rays

Low dose digital x-rays are often used to check areas of tooth and bone that are invisible to the naked eye.

Professional Smile Analysis

We listen to your wants and needs and explain the options to improve your smile. Sometimes the smallest of changes can make a huge difference to the way you feel.

Complete Treatment Plan

After your examination we will either give you a clean bill of health or a diagnosis and recommend a treatment.
