Protect your smile for life.
Every preventive visit starts with a comprehensive evaluation to catch early signs of dental issues, protect your teeth and gums, and guide you toward better daily care.
Your preventive dental exam, step by step.
-
Medical history review
We review your medical history so any recent health changes are factored into a personalized, safer care plan.
-
Visual & oral exam
Using mirrors, dental picks and high-intensity lighting, we inspect your teeth and gums for cracks or decay.
-
Tooth decay evaluation
Each tooth is checked for decay or enamel damage — early detection helps preserve your natural teeth.
-
Oral cancer screening
We examine the face, neck, lips, tongue, throat and gums. Detecting early symptoms can be life-saving.
-
Gum disease evaluation
We check your gums and the bone around your teeth, since early signs of gum disease can be subtle.
-
Restoration review
We make sure existing fillings, crowns and bridges are in good condition and recommend repairs if needed.
The importance of preventive dentistry.
Catching problems early, keeping teeth and gums clean and using advanced diagnostics helps you avoid pain, unnecessary costs and more complex procedures down the line.
- Digital dental X-raysClearer images with less radiation than traditional film, so we can spot issues early and plan treatment precisely.
- Oral cancer screeningsWe look for red or white spots, sores that don’t heal, lumps or persistent discomfort. Early detection means better outcomes.
- Professional teeth cleaningRecommended at least twice a year to remove hardened plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing can’t, helping prevent gum disease.
