Oral Exam
About Oral Exams
The key to a healthy, gorgeous smile is proactive dental care. MINT dentistry recommends bi-annual dental exams and cleanings. Your teeth will be checked at every visit by one of our board-certified dentists. In addition, dental exams at MINT dentistry will include an evaluation of your overall oral health and hygiene, including cavities, root decay, oral cancer, as well as your risk for gum and bone disease. Our qualified MINT dental professionals will assess your need for treatment or restorations utilizing state-of-the-art technology like digital x-rays. Our team of doctors encourage patients to schedule bi-annual dental examinations for themselves and their entire family at MINT dentistry to make sure their photos are full of healthy, beautiful smiles.
Best Candidates
Starting at about 18-months old, everyone should start getting annual dental exams. MINT dentistry offers superior dental care to every member of the family and can help address dental conditions of varying stages with proven techniques and advanced technology. We focus on providing a positive experience for younger patients so it's easier to keep them coming back for a lifetime of good oral hygiene. We also like to help our adult patients who may have had a negative experience at another dental office feel safe and comfortable during their time at MINT dentistry.

Book NowWhat to Expect
You will be given a pair of our swanky MINT sunglasses to wear during your exam while you relax in one of our luxurious treatment chairs. Your appointment will begin with an overall evaluation of your mouth and teeth while you catch up on your favorite shows beneath our flat-screen televisions or jam out with a pair of our Beats headphones. Next, a member of the MINT dentistry team will take digital x-rays of your mouth and screen for abnormal tissue. You can expect an evaluation of your head and neck, including your jaw, temporomandibular joints (TMJ), and your bite. A MINT dental professional will go over your results and if any problems are found, your treatment options will be reviewed. We will discuss any health problems you have, including any medications you may be taking and how they might impact your oral health. Finally, we will examine any restoration you have, like dentures or a bridge, to check the fit and wear.
Treatment Aftercare
If our team does not identify any dental issues, then the only aftercare necessary would be to continue a regimen of home oral care, which includes brushing and flossing twice a day. You should also continue to schedule bi-annual dental exams and bi-annual cleanings at MINT dentistry. Most patients will only need a dental exam twice a year, but MINT dentistry may suggest scheduling exams more often for patients with certain oral health problems. If our team does see something that needs to be addressed, treatment options will be discussed and scheduled. For example, if a cavity is found, you will need to schedule an appointment to have it treated with a tooth-colored filling.
