During the dental exam the dentist will evaluate the health of your teeth.
First they will examine your teeth using a probe and a small mirror. This will
check for soft spots in your teeth, pockets in your gum lines that may be the
result of gum disease, signs of gum disease and misalignments. The doctor will
most likely conduct an exam to check for oral based cancers and may check the
lymph nodes in your neck.
After the physical exam has been performed, the doctor will take x-rays of your
teeth to check for interior health. The x-rays will reveal any hidden cavities,
disease or other problems. Dental x-rays can be completed in a manner of
moments.
Most dental exams will end with the hygienist entering the room and cleaning
your teeth. This professional cleaning is an effective tool to preventing the
onset of gum disease. Once the cleaning has been completed the doctor will
return with the results of the x-rays. At this time you will be informed if any
additional dental work is needed. Continual care in this manner will help
prevent any serious dental problems in the future.
