 If you are experiencing discomfort in your teeth or gums and are ready to get your oral health back on track, we have a quality dental care team that can get you the best treatment that fits your condition. Come see our professionals at Osborne Dentistry for a dental exam to identify the cause of your discomfort.A dental exam is the first step on your journey to a brighter and healthier smile. Once you have completed your exam, our team will work with you to develop a custom treatment plan tailored to meet your needs. This will include follow-up exams and any necessary steps to improve the function and appearance of your smile. What Happens During a Dental Exam?A dental exam is a simple and non-invasive oral health procedure. During your exam, our professionals will carefully inspect every area of your oral cavity, including your gums and other soft tissue. Your exam will be accompanied by a professional teeth cleaning. One of our team members will brush and floss your teeth, as well as check for symptoms of chronic conditions such as gum disease. We check for gum disease by measuring the depth of the naturally occurring pockets that exist between your teeth and gums. Once this is completed, we will also conduct an oral cancer screening to check for any abnormalities. If this is your first exam with us, you will likely get X-rays as well. These images allow our professionals to better understand your oral health needs and get a complete view of your oral cavity. X-rays are updated as needed. How Often Do I Need a Dental Exam?According to the American Dental Association, you should receive an oral exam and cleaning every six months. Exams conducted in these intervals allows our team to monitor your oral health and provide feedback on your oral hygiene practices. Regular exams are also important because they allow our team to diagnose and treat any oral health conditions much earlier. If left untreated, conditions like decay can become substantially more serious and require multiple procedures to correct. What If a Cavity Is Found?If our team locates a cavity during your dental exam, we will let you know during your visit and discuss treatment options with you. The treatment that our team recommends will vary based on how severe the decay is. Minor cavities can often be treated during the very same visit through the use of a dental filling. When placing a filling, we will administer a local anesthetic to keep you comfortable during the procedure. We will then drill out any decayed material from your tooth. A composite material is used to pack the hole and protect your tooth from further decay. This material will harden after our team finishes molding and shaping it. Schedule an AppointmentThere is no need to wait until you are experiencing dental health issues to see a dental professional. Preventative treatment such as receiving regular dental exams is the key to a lifetime of good oral health.
