WHY ARE ROUTINE VISITS SO IMPORTANT?

Dental Examinations

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
  • Evaluation of status of current restorations (fillings and others)

We cannot express enough how important it is to see your dentist regularly.

Remember, preventing disease is always better than treating disease.
