What is a Dental Exam, and What Does it Entail?
A dental exam is a routine checkup by Dr. Jackson and the Clubhouse Pediatric Dentistry team. Dental exams help us assess the health of your child’s teeth and gums.
The examination involves thoroughly reviewing your child’s mouth, including the teeth, gums, tongue, throat, neck, and head. We’re checking for tooth decay, infections, and other problems. In addition, we may take digital X-rays to see what’s happening below the surface!
Regular dental exams give parents and children a chance to ask questions and learn more about how to care for their teeth properly. Whether your child has excellent or poor dental hygiene, exams are important for discovering hidden problems and for creating a doctor/patient relationship.
