Preventative Care FAQ
At Dental Wellness Phoenixville, your exam will start by sitting down and speaking with our team about any issues or questions you have about your oral health. Next, we will check inside your mouth to get an in-depth look at your teeth and gums. After the exam, you will get your routine dental cleaning. If there are any issues present that need more attention, we will either perform a more in-depth exam or give you a quick X-ray to take a better look at your teeth.
One of the most common questions patients ask is how painful the exams and cleanings are. During the initial oral exam, some patients experience minor discomfort if their gums are inflamed or sensitive. If patients have sensitive or inflamed teeth or gums, they may also experience minor discomfort during the cleaning. If you have any questions about what to expect during your exam, call us today, and we can help you!
There are many benefits to having routine dental exams. During these exams, we can see any issues before they happen, or before they get worse. Regular cleanings also ensure that your teeth and gums get the deep cleaning they need. Making sure your teeth stay healthy is an excellent way to prevent bad breath, tooth decay, gum disease, among many other things. Preventative dentistry happens outside of our office as well. Making healthy lifestyle choices at home also helps reduce the chance of oral health issues. Call us today to schedule your next cleaning or exam!
