Few things are as important for good oral health as getting your dental exams and X-rays regularly. These services are crucial when it comes to detecting problems before they become serious, keeping you healthy. During an exam and X-ray appointment, your dentist can find cavities, assess your risk for gum disease and tooth decay, and look for warning signs of more serious issues, like oral cancer. The professionals at Complete Dental Care
encourage our patients to have a dental exam at least once every six months.
Wondering why you should always keep up with your dental exams? Quite simply, getting your regular dental exams and X-rays will ensure that you’re on top of your oral health. If there is any decay or warning signs of bigger issues present such as oral cancer, your dentist will be able to catch them early and stop them from turning into larger problems. During your exam, your dentist will also identify any preventative treatment that is needed and use X-rays to uncover hidden issues inside your teeth or gums. These regular checkups are crucial to maintaining your oral health.
Wondering what to expect when you visit our office for a dental exam and X-ray appointment? The process is simple and will typically go as follows:
Dental exams can be very quick, sometimes taking just a couple of minutes. For those who are struggling with painful or irritating dental problems, or if the dentist finds any areas of concern, the exam may take up to half an hour. If a patient is getting X-rays, this process can take anywhere from 2 minutes to 15 minutes depending on the number of images needed. When you have your exam and cleaning appointment together, it usually takes around 45 minutes to an hour.
