Dental Check up and Treatment

Oral Examination

🔹 Visual inspection: The dentist checks your teeth, gums, tongue, and mouth for any signs of decay, infection, or abnormalities.

🔹 Tooth condition check: Identifies cavities, cracks, or worn-out fillings.

🔹 Gum health evaluation: Looks for swelling, bleeding, or signs of gum disease.

🔹 Oral hygiene assessment: Evaluates how well you are maintaining your teeth and gums.

🔹 Screening for oral cancer: Checks lips, cheeks, and tongue for unusual sores or growths.

🔹 Bite and jaw check: Ensures proper alignment and checks for jaw joint issues.

🔹 X-rays (if needed): Used to detect hidden dental problems below the surface.

Dental X-Rays (if needed)

🔹 Detection: Identifies cavities, tooth decay, bone loss, and infections early.

🔹 Types: Includes bitewing, periapical, panoramic, and digital X-rays.

🔹 Procedure: A quick, painless process where images are taken using safe, low-dose radiation.

🔹 Benefits: Assists in accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

🔹 Safety: Modern digital X-rays use minimal radiation and are safe for patients.

Professional Cleaning (Scaling and Polishing)

🔹 Scaling: Removes plaque, tartar, and stains from the teeth and gum line using ultrasonic instruments.

🔹 Polishing: Smoothens the tooth surfaces to make them shiny and help prevent future plaque buildup.

🔹 Purpose: Keeps gums healthy, prevents bad breath, and maintains oral hygiene.

🔹 Frequency: Recommended every 6 months for optimal dental health.

🔹 Benefits: Helps prevent gum disease, cavities, and staining — leaving your mouth fresh and clean.
