Complete dental and oral examination

The dental exam allows your dentist to obtain an overall picture of your oral health and to follow how it changes over time.

Depending on your situation, the exam may be used to assess:

  • The condition of your teeth and existing restorations
  • The presence of cavities or other dental problems
  • The health of your gums
  • Signs of wear or deterioration
  • The soft tissues of the mouth
  • Your oral health as a whole

X-rays may also be recommended when necessary, to complete the exam and help your dentist establish a diagnosis.

Following the assessment, we clearly explain what we observe and, when treatment is recommended, the different options available to you.

Dental cleaning and scaling

Even with a good hygiene routine at home, plaque and tartar can build up in areas that are difficult to reach.

Dental cleaning and scaling remove these deposits and help maintain the health of your teeth and gums.

Your appointment is also an opportunity to discuss your oral hygiene with our team and to get advice suited to your situation.

How often should you have your teeth cleaned?

There is no single frequency that suits everyone. Your dentist and your dental hygienist can recommend a follow-up interval based on your oral health and your particular needs.
