What Is a Dental Oral Exam?
Routine oral health checkups are crucial for preserving the health and beauty of your smile. At Joe Pausa, DMD, we perform comprehensive dental exams to assess for common issues, including dental decay, gum disease, oral cancer, and other concerns that can impact your oral and general health. During each evaluation, Dr. Sergio Pausa checks the teeth, gums, and jawbone for early signs of dental problems, allowing our team to identify and treat them before they cause complications. If it's been a while since your last dental exam, we invite you to contact Joe Pausa, DMD, in Alpharetta, GA to schedule yours. We're dedicated to helping you maintain a smile you're excited to show off.
What Can I Expect During My Dental Exam?
Dental oral exams are usually performed at our Alpharetta, GA office at the same time as other procedures (usually during one of your routine cleaning appointments). We'll start by reviewing your dental record and learning more about any oral health problems you've experienced in the past. Dr. Pausa may also order x-rays or digital scans to check for any problems under the gums or along the jawbone. He may then perform an oral cancer screening. Throughout the process, he'll talk with you about any concerning signs or treatments that may be necessary. If you have any questions regarding your smile's health or appearance, we can also discuss those during your oral exam. A typical dental exam can take up to 45 minutes, but your experience will vary depending on your oral health.
What Are the Benefits of Routine Oral Health Checkups?
At Joe Pausa, DMD, we recommend that patients schedule at least one dental oral exam per year. This allows Dr. Pausa and our team to monitor your dental health and recommend the most effective treatment as early as possible to keep your smile looking its best. Some of the other benefits of regular dental exams include:
- Lower risk of tooth loss
- Better oral hygiene
- Fresher breath
- Guidance on proper flossing and brushing
- Ongoing dental care and maintenance
- Access to x-rays and diagnostic services
- Tailored dental advice
- Early detection of dental problems
- Help maintaining a healthy smile
