temecula dental examWith the holidays just weeks away, you likely have a lot on your plate. But don’t forget about your smile! There is still time to see our team for a checkup and cleaning visit. In today’s blog, your Riverside Dental Group talks about the importance of protecting smiles with a dental exam.

You and Your Family Need a Dental Exam

A checkup is a chance for our team to take a close look at your teeth and gums for any sign of trouble, such as tooth decay or even gum disease. We also look for common issues like TMJ disorder and bruxism (teeth grinding). Our team will then create a treatment plan to address these concerns and return your smile to full function, health, and beauty. If you have any leftover dental insurance benefits for 2025, you can use these for treatment before they expire at the end of the year. The same goes for your remaining health savings account funds, so don’t leave money on the table! You can see us and we can help you start a new year with a better smile.

Looking Closely at Your Smile

To obtain a diagnosis with precision and accuracy, our team will use advanced digital imaging. With our digital x-rays, we use 90% less radiation to gather these images, and you don’t have to bite down on uncomfortable bite wings either. The images are transmitted instantly to a chairside monitor, so you spend less time in the chair and we can walk you through the diagnostic process, so you better understand your smile and what care is needed. We also look at the surfaces of your teeth and gums with intraoral cameras.

Cleaning Your Teeth

In the same visit, we will also help your smile with dental cleaning, in which we use an ultrasonic scaling device and a manual tool to gently and carefully remove all plaque and tartar. Doing so not only brightens your smile, but lowers the risk of cavities and even gum disease! If you have any questions about protecting your smile with preventive dentistry, then reach out to our team today to learn more. You deserve a stunning smile, and we want to help!
