At Dedicated Smiles, we prioritize your comfort and well-being as we provide honest assessments of your oral health. Our goal is to ensure you fully understand any recommended treatments while providing comprehensive, affordable dental care in Woodbridge, Virginia. Below, learn more about what to expect during your first visit with our dentist.
During your initial appointment, our dentist and team will perform a thorough oral examination. This includes a visual inspection, periodontal evaluation, and diagnosis. The visual inspection examines your teeth, supporting structures, and oral anatomy. Digital X-rays may be used to identify tooth decay, bone loss, or other dental concerns. We may also conduct an oral cancer screening to identify any abnormalities in your oral tissues. Early detection is vital, as it allows for easier treatment of emerging concerns.
We will also assess your gums through a periodontal probing to check for signs of gum disease. Additionally, we’ll evaluate your bite (occlusion) to identify any potential problems.
After completing the examination, our dentist will review the findings with you. We’ll explain any conditions, treatment options, and recommendations to ensure you’re fully informed about your oral health care. Your questions and concerns are important to us, and we’re committed to providing you with confidence and peace of mind about your care.
We invite you to contact our office today to schedule your first appointment and learn more about your initial oral examination. We look forward to welcoming you to our practice!
