What's included in my dental exam?
A dental exam at Lotus Family Dental is more than just a quick checkup — it’s a complete evaluation of your oral health.
During your visit, we provide:
Comprehensive Oral Evaluation
-
We examine your teeth, gums, jaw, and tongue for signs of decay, damage, or inflammation.
Low-Radiation Dental X-rays (if needed)
-
Our advanced imaging helps us detect hidden issues like cavities, bone loss, or impacted teeth — with up to 90% less radiation.
Professional Teeth Cleaning
-
We gently remove plaque, tartar, and surface stains, followed by polishing and flossing for a fresh, clean smile.
Gum Disease Screening
-
We measure your gum pockets to spot early signs of gingivitis or periodontal disease.
Oral Cancer Screening
-
A visual check for abnormal tissue or lesions that may need further evaluation.
Personalized Care Plan
-
Based on your exam results, we’ll recommend treatments and preventive care tailored to your specific needs and goals.
Why regular dental exams matter?
Skipping dental exams might not seem urgent, but many oral health issues develop silently.
Staying consistent with routine visits helps you:
Catch Problems Early
-
Small cavities and early gum inflammation are easier—and more affordable—to treat when detected early.
Prevent Gum Disease
-
Early-stage gingivitis is reversible, but advanced periodontal disease can lead to permanent damage.
Protect Your Overall Health
-
Studies show strong links between oral health and systemic conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and stroke.
Boost Your Confidence
-
Healthy teeth help you speak, eat, and smile with ease and confidence.
General dentistry is designed to prevent problems rather than solve them.
