Diagnostic Dental Exams
Most dental professionals recommend scheduling dental exams every six months. However, this may vary depending on your unique oral health needs. Factors such as gum disease, tooth decay, or orthodontic treatment may require more frequent care. Our dentist at Avalon Dental Care will recommend the frequency of dental visits that are right for you.
During your dental exam, we will assess every aspect of your oral health, including your teeth, gums, and restorations, to detect any problems as they develop. We will also take digital x-rays to uncover hidden concerns in their earliest stages when they are easiest to treat.
Additional Diagnostic Tools
The following are some additional tools that enhance our diagnostic precision and ensure you receive the best possible care:
Exam with Intraoral Camera: During your exam, we use our cutting-edge intraoral camera to get a close-up view of your teeth and gums. This revolutionary diagnostic tool allows us to uncover potential problems early on, ensuring prompt treatment. You’ll be able to visualize areas of concern, which helps you make informed decisions about your dental care.
Cone Beam CT Scan: The advanced 3D imaging technology provides us with detailed 3D views of your teeth, soft tissues, nerve pathways, and bone, all in a single, non-invasive scan. It helps diagnose complex issues and plan intricate treatments with exceptional precision.
iTero Intraoral Scanner: We use our iTero scanner to capture detailed 3D images of your teeth and gums, eliminating the need for messy or gooey dental impressions. We use your digital scans to plan Invisalign treatments.
