Comprehensive Dental Exam
At our practice, we believe that exceptional care begins with a thorough understanding of your oral health. Our comprehensive dental exam is an in-depth evaluation that combines cutting-edge technology, evidence-based protocols from the Kois Center, and a personalized approach to prevention and education.
WHY CHOOSE A COMPREHENSIVE EXAM AT OUR PRACTICE?
This isn’t your typical dental check-up. Our comprehensive exam takes at least an hour, during which we assess every aspect of your oral health. From a detailed medical and dental history to advanced imaging and AI analysis, we focus on identifying current and potential issues that could affect your ability to speak, chew, and smile for the rest of your life.
We dedicate this time to minimize dental emergencies for our patients and bring health care back to its roots—a personal relationship between doctor and patient. Unlike an insurance-driven approach that prioritizes high volume over quality care, we prioritize understanding your unique oral health needs and creating a plan for long-term health and prevention.
