At your initial visit to Silver Family Dental, our team will conduct a thorough dental examination. During routine check-up appointments, we include the following assessments:

• Review of diagnostic x-rays (radiographs): These are vital for identifying decay, tumors, cysts, and bone loss, as well as determining the position of teeth and roots.
• Oral cancer screening: We examine the face, neck, lips, tongue, throat, tissues, and gums for any signs of oral cancer.
• Gum disease evaluation: We assess the health of your gums and the bone surrounding the teeth for indications of periodontal disease.
• Tooth decay examination: All tooth surfaces are carefully checked for cavities using specialized dental instruments.
• Examination of existing restorations: Current fillings, crowns, and other dental work are evaluated for integrity and function.
