What Are Dental Exams?
Regular dental exams are a cornerstone of any oral health routine, serving as a preventive measure against future problems that may impact the health and appearance of your smile. An annual oral exam at Dental Arts of Rockland gives our team a chance to identify dental caries, periodontal disease, oral cancer, and various other problems that could be affecting your oral and general health. Usually carried out at biannual teeth cleaning visits, comprehensive exams allow our team to get a more complete picture of your teeth, gumline, bite, jaw, and other oral structures so they can identify and treat any issues before they develop into serious problems. To best preserve the health and visual appeal of your mouth, schedule your next annual dental examination at our Orangeburg, NY office.
What Can I Expect During My Dental Exam?
To start, a member of our team will begin with a review of your dental history. We'll also go over any ongoing treatments or other details we should know about your dental health. We may also capture detailed digital impressions using our office's advanced intraoral scanner to get a comprehensive view of your mouth and jaw. We will check your enamel, look for signs of injury or decay, and assess the condition of any dental restorations (like crowns or bridges) to ensure they're still intact. We'll also conduct a gum exam to see if there are any indications of periodontal disease.
What Are the Benefits of Regular Dental Exams?
At Dental Arts of Rockland, we recommend that all patients schedule at least one comprehensive dental exam each year to protect their teeth, gums, and jaw from potential problems. The benefits of regular dental exams at our Orangeburg, NY practice include:
- Custom dental guidance
- Fresh breath
- Learning about correct flossing and brushing methods
- Decreased chance of tooth loss
- Improved oral hygiene
- Early detection and management of oral health concerns
- Preserve the health and appearance of your smile
Dental Exam Reviews
I highly recommend Dental Arts of Rockland for any patient looking for quality dental care from the second you walk into the dental office. From the front desk through the entire dental procedure you will be treated with extraordinary, and painless service. I was extremely pleased with all aspects of the care provided to me.
I went for my regular hygiene appointment and had a great experience. Although I was not surprised since Dr. Gellis and the entire Dental Arts of Rockland staff are always #1. The appointment was with Destiney who did an extremely thorough job not only with the cleaning and prophylaxis, but also with her examination that yielded a couple of items that she pointed out to Dr. Gellis. I wanted to call out this experience because it was Destiney's first day working in this practice and she was a real pro and will be a great asset to Dental Arts of Rockland.
Always a terrific experience. Maryanne makes the cleaning as gentle as possible. Dr. G was kind and thorough and even recommended some extra measures for my dental care.
I'm a returning patient that finds the dental care outstanding, and note worthy. Thanks for the service!!!
These folks are artists, skilled and experienced dental professionals, and like family! I now live out of state, but within driving distance, and I am continuing to come here for top-notch dental care. They accommodated my schedule of visiting the area to check an issue that turned out to be a replacement of an old filling and a crown on an adjacent tooth. Everything was done totally pain free and with comfort, kindness and care. I am looking forward to my follow-up for the permanent crown.
