Initial Comprehensive Exam & X-RAYS
You will meet with Dr. Bahmadi to talk about your medical history. If you have any oral health worries or fears, you can feel comfortable sharing them with her—your comfort is most important, and we encourage you to ask questions.
Next, Dr. Bahmadi will likely examine your teeth, gums, and mouth, and take x-rays and/or panoramic radiographs. Panoramic radiographs help your dentist view unerupted or impacted teeth, as well as sinus conditions, and can detect lesions or fractures in the jaw.
- This initial comprehensive exam is a no-risk way to learn the status of your oral health, and to learn how our team can help you. If you want a second opinion, no problem – you can obtain a copy of your exam results and x-rays at no charge.
- There’s a good reason why you probably won’t receive a teeth cleaning at your first appointment: Each new patient relationship often starts with an initial exam so your dental team can understand your needs and concerns first, then tailor your hygiene treatment to you. This way, you’ll get the most out of your cleaning appointments and the time and attention you deserve.
- As part of your screening for COVID-19, you will be provided with a hydrogen peroxide rinse and your temperature will be checked. Also TESTING will be required and performed before your treatment.
