Should I get an Oral Exam?

Proactive maintenance is the key to keeping a beautiful, healthy smile, at Peachtree Smile Center. Oral exams are essential components of preventive dental care, providing thorough assessments of oral health to detect any issues early on and maintain optimal dental wellness. During an oral exam, Dr. Babo conducts a comprehensive evaluation of the teeth, gums, and soft tissues of the mouth.

This includes examining the teeth for signs of decay, damage, or malocclusion, as well as assessing the condition of the gums for signs of inflammation, recession, or periodontal disease. The doctor also checks for abnormalities or lesions in the oral mucosa that could indicate oral cancer or other oral health concerns. Oral exams may also include diagnostic procedures such as dental X-rays to provide a more comprehensive view of the oral structures.
