Why
is it important to have a dental exam?
Dental examinations help to diagnose disease before it becomes hazardous to your
health. In addition, regular examinations can save you money by alleviating problems
while they are small and before they become expensive to repair, or in some cases,
impossible to repair. Your dental examinations generally include the following:
- Oral
cancer screening
- Gum disease evaluation
- Visual examination of
tooth decay
- Examination of diagnostic x-rays
to see cysts, tumors, invisible decay
and other possible issues
- Evaluation of status of
current restorations
