Dental exams (check-ups)

Dental exams (check-ups)

Regular check-ups and cleaning benefit you by protecting your teeth and gums, saving future discomfort, expense, and possible loss of teeth by identifying and treating small problems before they progress into major ones.

At AG dentistry, interval between dental check-ups is determined specifically for each patient, based on your personal oral health. Patients at higher risk for oral disease will receive individualized preventive counseling and a more in-depth assessment.

At AG dentistry an intraoral camera is used during your check-up exam to highlight areas of concern, to help in effective communication or to monitor your dental health and your treatment progress. Images from the intraoral camera can be seen on a chair-side screen, then digitally stored or printed out for your own records.
