Exams


A young woman receiving a dental examPart of keeping your mouth healthy and preventing disease is going to regular dental exams. During these exams, our professionals will perform a routine set of procedures to clean your teeth, assess any damage to the teeth, and check for any abnormalities inside of your mouth. Preventative care is the best form of dental care for your teeth and gums, and part of this care is getting a regular exam from Jason Widner DMD Family Dentistry.

What Is a Dental Exam?


A dental exam is a combination of discussion and analysis. Our professionals usually discuss oral hygiene habits and diet. If necessary, proper flossing and brushing techniques are demonstrated. Our professionals may inquire about tobacco products or medications taken. The teeth, mouth, face, and neck are then examined to identify abnormalities.

Patients who need implants, crowns, or bridges will have special conversations with our teams, focusing on these issues. Many dental professionals discuss cosmetic procedures designed to improve the look of teeth and the smile. The exam is also the perfect opportunity for the patient to ask questions and discuss current or future concerns.

What Can You Expect From a Dental Exam?


Our professionals will perform a dental exam to take inventory of the overall health of your teeth and mouth. This way, our professionals can diagnose any potential problems you may currently be experiencing and any potential future problems. A routine check-up is also known as a dental exam.

Dental Exams for Regular Hygiene


80% of bad breath is caused by bacteria in the mouth or some tooth decay. Even the strongest mouthwash may not be able to get rid of bad breath. However, an appointment with our professionals will help you eliminate all of the bacteria and give you fresh smelling breath.

A regular dental exam is good to keep your teeth and gums healthy. If your teeth are cleaned regularly, you will be less likely to suffer from tooth decay, and you will be able to prevent small cavities from becoming infected. This can save you the hassle of getting painful root canals and other dental surgeries.

Healthy gums will also keep your teeth strong, and this is necessary if you want strong teeth for as long as possible. A simple check-up will identify any problem you may face and get rid of it before it becomes a big one. This is the perfect time to get rid of small stains on your teeth and polish your teeth so that they get white, and you can show off a lovely smile.

What Else is Done During My Dental Exam?


A physical exam alone is not sufficient to completely diagnose all potential problems that may not be visible. X-rays play a key role in allowing a better and more accurate look at what is going on inside your mouth and below your teeth and gums. X-rays allow our professionals to check for any bone loss and determine the severity of any potential gum disease.

Your family’s dental care is important. You want to have a great smile, but your dental care can help maintain great overall health. For more information, and to find out how you and your child can benefit from a dental exam, call Jason Widner DMD Family Dentistry at 425-868-0123 today.
