Preventive Dental Exams for Lifelong Oral Health
The American Dental Association recommends visiting the dentist at least twice a year for preventive exams. During your appointment, Dr. Reddy or will carefully evaluate each tooth along with the surrounding tissues—including your gums, cheeks, and tongue.
These examinations allow us to:
- Detect cavities early
- Evaluate plaque and gum health
- Identify signs of gum disease
- Look for fractures, worn enamel, or other dental concerns
- Screen for oral cancer
- Assess the temporomandibular joint (TMJ)
To provide the most accurate diagnosis, we may take a full set of digital X-rays during your initial visit. These images help us detect cavities, evaluate bone levels, and identify any abnormalities that may not be visible to the naked eye. While not mandatory, X-rays are highly recommended once a year or before specific procedures.
Once your evaluation is complete, we’ll walk you through your personalized treatment plan. Our goal is to ensure you understand every step, feel confident in your care, and know exactly how we can help you achieve your healthiest smile.
Keep Your Smile Healthy With Regular Cleanings
Professional dental cleanings are essential to preventing gingivitis, tooth decay, and periodontal disease. While home care is crucial—brushing, flossing, staying hydrated, and avoiding sugary foods—professional cleanings allow us to remove hardened plaque, reduce inflammation, and keep your smile bright.
During your visit, our team will be happy to answer any questions you may have about your daily oral hygiene routine and help you make the best choices for your long-term oral health.
