• We will conduct an oral cancer screening along with an examination for oral signs of other serious illnesses like heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.
• We will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth for possible new & recurrent decay. If such is detected, you will be given suitable treatment options.
• If any dental tooth decay is detected appropriate treatment is done which is decided based on the severity. We will also help you with an appropriate diet and oral hygiene habits that will help you prevent tooth decay in the future.
• Our dentist will conduct a periodontal exam and evaluate your gums for the signs of gum disease by measuring periodontal pockets with a probe.
• If any brown stains are present in your mouth, we will conduct the scaling, which is also known as the general dental cleaning. The dentist will gently clean the teeth, polish the teeth, and remove stains, plaque, and tartar. Additionally, the dentist will assess your need for fluorides.

Our hygienists are trained to administer local anesthesia if needed to eliminate pain and discomfort during the treatment.
