You will, of course, have your brushing and flossing routine at home. However, cleanings and checkups from the dentist help reinforce your daily routine. Cleanings and checkups will also allow Chester Road Family Dental to ensure your oral health is in great shape. During checkups, we also like to take the opportunity to provide education which can benefit the entire family.

A thorough cleaning at the dentist is a great general dentistry treatment to prevent many dental problems, such as decay or gum disease. When these conditions are identified early, your Chester Road Family Dental team can do a lot of damage control. You won’t regret keeping up with regular checkups when your teeth are strong, and you are able to smile with confidence wherever you go.

Comprehensive Dental Exams

While a basic checkup will allow us to detect the most common dental problems, we believe that a comprehensive exam is much more efficient. A comprehensive exam covers all bases, using techniques and technologies which can detect issues which are not visible to the naked eye. By identifying problems before you experience symptoms, we can save you from a lot of pain and discomfort.

Comprehensive exams are also crucial when diagnosing conditions which have multiple possible causes. Conditions of the jaw, for instance, can be caused by weak muscles or a misaligned joint. Without the thoroughness of a comprehensive exam, many dentists would be unable to determine the root cause.
