Reduce The Risks.
An oral health assessment, also known as a dental examination, is a thorough evaluation of your oral health. This typically includes an examination of the teeth, gums, tongue, and other parts of the mouth, as well as a review of your medical and dental history. The purpose of an oral health assessment is to detect any potential oral health issues and to determine the overall health of your mouth.
Benefits of Oral Health Assessment
Not only do regular visits help to maintain your smile, recently, we have seen how a healthy mouth can also reduce the risk of heart disease, strokes and diabetes.
Early detection
An oral health assessment can help detect potential oral health problems early on, when they are most treatable. This includes issues such as tooth decay, gum disease, oral cancer, and other oral health conditions.
Personalized treatment planning
An oral health assessment can provide the basis for a personalized treatment plan that addresses the specific needs of the patient.
Professional cleaning
An oral health assessment includes a professional cleaning, which can remove hard-to-reach plaque and tartar.
Education
An oral health assessment provides an opportunity for your dental professional to educate you on proper oral hygiene techniques, and to make personalized recommendations based on your individual needs.
Identification of systemic health issues
An oral health assessment may also help identify underlying systemic health issues such as diabetes, heart disease, and osteoporosis.
