Routine Dental Examinations

Here at Woodmoor Family Dentistry, our expert team are committed to providing the highest standard of preventive care. Our highly trained dental team initially performs a comprehensive dental evaluation of your teeth, gums, and restorations to assess any tooth decay, gum disease, or dental device complications that need any maintenance.

As part of the most comprehensive component of our preventive dentistry practice, we also capture diagnostic radiographs to analyze your oral health, as well as focusing on your concerns and dental goals while keeping direct dialogue to ensure your trust and safety.

Our Dental Examinations

Some dental examinations you can expect to receive at our office include:

  • Evaluation for tooth decay – Each tooth surface will be examined for any signs of decay utilizing specialized dental equipment.
  • Examination for periodontal disease – The gums, gum line, and skeletal structure around the teeth are checked for any signs of periodontal disease.
  • Assessment for oral cancer – Involves the screening of your face, lips, tongue, throat, and gums to detect any signs of oral cancer.
  • Evaluation of dental restorations – If applicable, we check the condition of any restorations such as crowns, bridges, fillings, and veneers, in addition to any loose or fractured devices.

Dental Radiographs Offered

For certain instances, a direct physical assessment of your teeth’ superficial condition is not enough to detect all the abnormalities hidden beneath the surface-level. Such valuable and advanced diagnostic technology helps with the creation of a thorough and accurate treatment plan, and without such equipment, certain dental problems may go unnoticed. Whether it is for early preventative diagnoses or complications that require urgent attention.

Utilizing dental radiographs has proven to be effective with applications such as:

  • Detecting any decay inside a tooth or underneath the gum line
  • Locating any tartar accumulation, tooth decay, or cavities on the sides of teeth not visible through a physical screening
  • Locating fractures or underlying decay within dental fillings
  • Targeting abnormalities such as abscesses, cysts, or lymphoma
  • Diagnosing any cancerous or non-cancerous tumors
  • Revealing tooth and root positions
  • Providing a glimpse of underlying complications in the skeletal system
  • Assisting in the preparation and placement of dental implants as well as orthodontic braces
