What to Expect
Your first visit includes a comprehensive evaluation to assess your periodontal and overall oral health. This typically involves:
- Full Medical & Dental History Review: We review your health history, medications, and any existing dental conditions to ensure a safe and effective treatment plan.
- Periodontal Examination: We evaluate gum health, measure periodontal pockets, check for gum recession, and identify any signs of disease.
- Assessment for Bone Loss & Loose Teeth: Your periodontist will examine bone support levels and tooth stability.
- Bite Evaluation (Occlusion): We assess how your teeth fit together to identify issues affecting gums, bone health, or restorations.
- Oral Cancer Screening: A thorough screening of the tissues in your mouth, lips, throat, and neck to detect early signs of abnormalities.
- TMJ Evaluation: We examine the jaw joints and muscles for any signs of tension, misalignment, or dysfunction.
Your comfort is our priority. Our team will explain findings clearly, answer every question, and discuss personalized treatment options designed to support long-term oral health.
