Examinations

What is done during an examination?

During an examination, we will check the health of teeth, gums, tongue and other tissues in and around your mouth. This includes detection for dental decay, gum disease, oral cancer, tooth wear, and functional or cosmetic issues.

We can also discuss any specific concerns you may have.
