What Are Dental Exams?
Regular oral examinations serve as a crucial foundation for good dental health throughout your life. At Suite 905, we perform comprehensive dental exams to assess for decay, gum disease, oral cancer, and other concerns that might have an impact on your oral (and overall) health. Typically performed at least once a year during a cleaning appointment, dental exams allow Dr. Svetlana Orit Faradjewa and Dr. Sheila Faradjewa to monitor the health of your smile over time, giving you the best chance of avoiding severe health problems and complex treatments in the future. Protect the health and appearance of your smile by scheduling a dental exam at our New York, NY office today.
How Does An Oral Health Exam Work?
Dental exams at Suite 905 are usually done as part of your routine cleaning appointments, which we recommend at least once every six months for most patients. We'll start by doing a visual assessment of your teeth and gums and asking about any problems you might be having, including pain, sensitivity, or other issues. We may take a series of dental x-rays to get a clear picture of your jaw's health and structure. If you have any dental restorations (like fillings or crowns), we'll check those to ensure they're still sturdy and functional. We'll also take this opportunity to perform a comprehensive oral cancer screening, checking for any unusual sores, lumps, or discoloration that might be a sign of cancer. Once we're done, we'll go over the results with you, talk about any concerns we find, and recommend a treatment plan to preserve your smile.
What Are the Benefits of Regular Oral Health Exams?
When it comes to your oral health, it pays to be proactive. Regular dental exams are critical for ensuring lasting oral wellness with benefits that include:
- Detecting cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues early
- Preventing minor problems from becoming more serious and costly
- Removing plaque and tartar buildup to lower the risk of decay
- Identifying signs of oral cancer for early intervention
- Assessing bite alignment and jaw function to prevent discomfort
- Helping maintain healthy teeth and gums for long-term oral health
- Providing personalized advice for better home care and hygiene
Dental exams are often covered by insurance as part of a preventive oral care plan. Our team at Suite 905 is happy to help you understand your policy and financial options to ensure you receive quality care that fits your budget.
