Dental Exams
Routine dental examinations are the foundation of excellent oral health. During your comprehensive exam, Dr. Ridley carefully evaluates your teeth, gums, bite, and overall oral health to identify potential concerns before they become more serious.
Our dental exams may include:
- Complete Oral Examination
- Digital X-Rays (when necessary)
- Gum Health Evaluation
- Oral Cancer Screening
- Bite Assessment
- Existing Dental Restoration Evaluation
- Personalized Treatment Recommendations
Regular exams help detect cavities, gum disease, infections, and other conditions early, often reducing the need for more extensive treatment later.
Professional Teeth Cleaning
Even with excellent brushing and flossing habits, plaque and tartar can build up in areas that are difficult to reach. Professional dental cleanings remove these deposits while helping prevent cavities, gum disease, and bad breath.Gum Disease Treatment
Healthy gums are essential for a healthy smile. Gum disease is one of the leading causes of tooth loss among adults, but early diagnosis and treatment can help protect your oral health.Preventive Dentistry
