Dental Exam

Regular checkups are the foundation of good oral health. By looking for signs of future areas of concern, we can work to prevent them before additional treatments are required.

Our full dental exam includes an oral health screening using digital x-rays to minimize radiation levels to our patients, gum disease evaluation, bone level and health assessments, early decay detection, and a full examination of your existing restoration for signs of wear and tear.

We also screen for various diseases and disorders, including temporomandibular disorders and oral cancer.

The steps involved in a comprehensive dental examination from the dental professionals at SmileHub include: 

Patient Interview

By asking questions about your oral health history and symptoms, we can get a clearer picture of what may be causing the problems and what treatments may be necessary.

This interview is a crucial checkpoint, allowing us to begin formulating potential diagnoses and designing the ideal treatment plan to help you resolve dental issues and achieve oral health outcomes. 

Disease Screening

Routine disease screenings are crucial for catching deadly diseases early on, allowing for a higher chance of successful treatment.

The dental professionals at SmileHub Dental offer comprehensive screenings for a variety of oral health diseases and disorders, including:

  • Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD)
  • Oral Cancer
  • Gum Disease
  • Dental Decay
  • Periodontitis 

Oral Examination and Cleaning

Next, we will do a more comprehensive assessment of your mouth, followed by a dental cleaning.

Professional dental cleaning is a preventive measure that helps remove tartar, plaque, and other buildups from your teeth. This process is essential to avoid gum disease, tooth decay, and other oral health problems.

The steps involved in a professional dental cleaning at SmileHub Dental include the following:

  • Removal of plaque and tartar
  • Teeth polishing
  • Flossing
  • Oral rinse
  • X-rays 

Diagnostic Exams

If we find any problems during your examination that require further study, we will perform additional diagnostic exams to determine the best treatment method.

Some of the diagnostic exams that may be performed during your dental examination include:

  • Dental X-rays
  • Periodontal Charting
  • Oral Cancer Screening
