Dental check-up and examination
A comprehensive and thorough examination is the starting point to the finest dental care at our Montmorency clinic. We use a 28 point checklist to ensure a complete dental examination is performed so that together we will know exactly where we stand with your oral health.
What is involved in a dental check-up at Montmorency clinic?
A dental check-up and comprehensive exam involves more than just looking at your teeth. At each check-up we examine
- Examination of diagnostic digital x-rays (radiographs): Essential for detection of any decay, tumours, cysts, and bone loss. X-rays also help determine tooth and root positions
- Look at both hard and soft tissues
- The temporomandibular joints (TMJs) we examine your jaw joint for any possible problems and see if you are suffering pain or grinding/wearing your teeth down
- Gum disease evaluation: Check the gums and bone around the teeth for any signs of periodontal disease
- Examination of tooth decay: All tooth surfaces will be checked for decay with special dental instruments
- Perform an oral cancer check
- Examination of existing restorations: Check any current fillings and crowns, implants, veneers
- Improving Your Smile: If you would like we can also do a cosmetic evaluation and let you know about how new technology can improve your smile
- X-rays are taken to help diagnose a problem, confirm a diagnosis, give valuable information to enable a dental problem to be fixed & to find otherwise undetectable dental problems
Why are dental examinations so important?
Studies have shown a strong connection between our oral health and our general wellbeing. Often the signs and symptoms of your general wellbeing can be seen in your mouth, offering us clues as to how we can best help you achieve optimal oral health.
Some benefits of a Comprehensive Dental Examination
Help avoid future cost and pain: A comprehensive examination establishes a baseline of where you are at with your oral health. If there is a change or a progression of disease we can monitor it. Major dental problems (including pain and cost) can be avoided or minimised.
Minimising Unnecessary Surprises:
We know exactly the condition of your dental health and together agree to a dental health plan to meet your immediate needs and your future needs. You decisions are well informed about any treatment needed.
Planning: A comprehensive examination allows both yourself and our dental team to develop a master plan for your dental treatment. This way, you can schedule your time, plan your budget and work with your dental insurance cover (if applicable) to accomplish your dental requirements.
Keeping your teeth for life: Dental disease is like some heart diseases – only when it reaches an advanced stage will you notice it. Just because you don’t feel any pain, doesn’t mean you have healthy dental hygiene. A comprehensive examination will establish your oral health and repair problems early.
It’s Cheaper: Regular dental care works out far cheaper and easier in the long run than dental crisis management of dental problems that can become complex, painful, costly and unpredictable.
