Small Dental Issues Become Big (and Expensive) Problems If Ignored.

Skipping regular dental exams might not seem like a big deal until the problems start. Small cavities turn into painful toothaches. Gums start to bleed. Bad breath becomes a daily struggle no matter how much you brush.

These little warning signs can lead to bigger and more expensive dental issues down the road. The worst part is that you might not even know there is a problem until it is too late. With routine exams and X-rays, you can catch these issues early before they cause pain, stress, and costly treatments.

Understanding Dental Exams and X-Rays

Regular dental exams and X-rays are essential for keeping your teeth and gums healthy. They help catch problems early, preventing pain, costly treatments, and long-term damage.

What Happens During a Dental Exam?

A dental exam is a routine checkup where our dentist looks for signs of cavities, gum disease, and other oral health issues. We will examine your teeth, gums, tongue, and overall mouth health. We may also check your bite and jaw for alignment issues if needed.

Why Are Dental X-Rays Important?

X-rays allow dentists to see what is happening beneath the surface of your teeth and gums. They help detect cavities, infections, bone loss, and other hidden dental problems that are not visible to the naked eye. By spotting these issues early, X-rays help prevent serious complications.

How Often Should You Get a Dental Exam and X-Ray?

Our dentists recommend getting a dental exam every six months. X-rays may not be needed at every visit, but our dentist will determine how often you should have them based on your oral health.
