Dental Wellness Check

Treatment overview‍

A dental exam, also known as a wellness check, is a crucial part of maintaining your oral health. Regular check-ups allow your dentist to catch potential issues early, preventing problems such as tooth decay, gum disease, and other oral health conditions. At Dental Holistix, we take a comprehensive approach to your dental exam, ensuring that both your teeth and overall oral wellbeing are monitored and cared for.‍

How a dental exam works‍

During your wellness check, your dentist will thoroughly examine your teeth, gums, and soft tissues to assess your overall oral health. Using the latest technology, we identify any signs of cavities, gum disease, or other issues. We may also take X-rays or digital scans for a more detailed view, ensuring that nothing is missed.

Key benefits

• Early detection – Identify issues like decay, gum disease, and other conditions before they become serious problems.

• Prevent dental issues: Regular check-ups help avoid serious problems like cavities and gum disease.
• Maintain oral health: Ensure your teeth, gums, and soft tissues are in optimal condition.
• Address concerns: If you have discomfort or changes in your oral health, a check-up can diagnose the issue.

Treatment timeline‍
