Your Personal Dental Strategy

No two people are alike. Although there are similarities in dental health strategizes, we want to help you achieve the goals you have for your teeth, your smile, and your long-term dental health. For each of our patients, we do the following to develop your personal dental plan:

Picture
​A Comprehensive Exam - During our comprehensive exam for adults, we will be evaluating your Temporal Mandibular Joint (the jaw joints) to make sure they are functioning properly and not giving you any discomfort. The muscles used in chewing will be evaluated, and we will get a history of how your TMJ has been functioning for you.  The gums around the teeth will be measured  to evaluate the status of your periodontal or gum health. Also, we will look for any gum recession or signs of gum disease.  We look for “lumps and bumps,” basically checking for any abnormalities and screening for oral cancer. We also will check the neck area for any enlarged lymph nodes, which could indicate an infection. A thorough dental exam is necessary for the development of your plan.

​A Full Explanation with Education - Our knowledgeable staff will give you a full explanation of what we find each time we examine your mouth. We will make sure you understand our findings and what they mean to you. We use computer graphics, models, and other means to help explain in terms you'll understand. We aren't here to impress you with fancy medical terms. We are here to educate our patients.

​A Listening Ear - We want to hear what your goals are for your dental health. Maybe your goal is whiter teeth, fewer cavities, better flossing, or the opportunity you never had to straighten teeth. Whatever your goals are, we want to hear them. 

These Three INGREDIENTS come together to form your Plan

Based on your comprehensive exam, your understanding, and your goals, we will provide you with professional advice on a treatment plan that will form a partnership between you and us to bring about successful and meaningful long-term dental health. As we schedule follow-up visits, we will assess the strategy's effectiveness and adjust as needed. We'll do all we can to help encourage you with your part of the process. We promise you that we'll keep current with the latest medical science and research findings and improve the strategy as we continue to learn.
