At Studio Smiles, we wholeheartedly believe that preventive dental care is the cornerstone of lifelong oral health and a radiant smile. Our commitment to your well-being starts right from your initial visit, during which our dedicated team conducts a comprehensive dental exam tailored to your individual needs. By getting to know your unique oral health situation, we can create a personalized treatment plan designed to keep your smile healthy and vibrant for years to come.

What’s Included in Your Comprehensive Dental Exam?

During your visit, you will receive an extensive oral health assessment that includes several crucial components:

  • Diagnostic X-rays (Radiographs): Our state-of-the-art diagnostic X-rays are essential in detecting cavities, cysts, tumors, and bone loss. They assist us in evaluating tooth and root positioning, giving us deeper insights into your overall dental health.
  • Oral Cancer Screening: Early detection can save lives. That's why we include a thorough oral cancer screening as part of our comprehensive dental exam. We meticulously check your face, neck, lips, tongue, throat, gums, and other tissues for early signs of oral cancer.
  • Gum Disease Evaluation: Healthy gums are integral to overall oral health. During our gum disease evaluation, we assess the gums and bone surrounding your teeth to identify any indications of periodontal disease, which can lead to serious health issues if left untreated.
  • Tooth Decay Examination: Using advanced dental tools, we perform a meticulous tooth decay examination that identifies cavities and the early signs of enamel erosion, allowing for timely intervention.
  • Assessment of Existing Restorations: If you already have fillings, crowns, bridges, or other restorations, we evaluate their condition to ensure they continue to function effectively.

Professional Dental Cleaning (Dental Prophylaxis)

To complement your comprehensive dental exam, we offer professional dental cleaning, a critical part of maintaining optimal oral health. Our experienced Registered Dental Hygienists perform thorough cleanings that ensure your smile remains healthy and bright:

  • Tartar Removal: Drastic steps are required to combat the hardened plaque, or tartar, that sticks to your teeth above and below the gumline. Our hygienists utilize specialized tools to safely and effectively remove it.
  • Plaque Removal Techniques: Plaque is a sticky film that can harbor bacteria, leading to gum inflammation and periodontal disease. Our cleaning procedures effectively eliminate this risk, keeping your gums and teeth in pristine condition.
  • Teeth Polishing Services: To finish your cleaning, we offer professional teeth polishing, an essential step for eliminating surface stains and leftover plaque, resulting in a fresh and glossy finish for your smile.

Routine dental checkups and professional cleanings are vital for preventing oral health issues before they turn into more serious concerns. At Studio Smiles, we prioritize preventive dental care to keep our patients in Los Angeles feeling confident about their smiles.
