More about family dentistry
Understanding the patient
Each patient’s needs will vary according to certain factors: smoking habits, dental hygiene routine, general health (disease, injury), etc. To better understand you and provide a more accurate diagnosis of your oral health, your dentist will ask you a series of health questions to note in your dossier.
Routine check-ups
During routine visits, we will, of course, remove tartar from your teeth and check for cavities. We will also screen to spot the development of malocclusion and early symptoms of oral cancer.
Taking x-rays
Dentists commonly take radiographs (or x-rays) to facilitate diagnosis. Radiography presents no risk to the patient. The images obtained will help your dentist detect the presence of gum disease and cavities, as well as filling erosion and other potential abnormalities.
PROFESSIONAL CLEANING
Getting regular dental check-ups for every member of the family will help maintain the oral health of everyone. These appointments are also a good opportunity to get your teeth professionally cleaned. Even if you have a good oral hygiene routine, it’s important to get your teeth occasionally cleaned by a dentist.
THE BENEFITS
A thorough dental cleaning will:
- Meticulously clean the surface of your teeth, as well as fillings
- Eliminate tartar and plaque that could lead to gum disease
- Get rid of stains on your teeth
