Preventive and hygiene
Know exactly where you stand.
A comprehensive exam looks at every tooth, your gums, your bite and your jaw, and ends with a conversation, not a lecture.
About this service
Your first visit to Sunny Smiles includes a comprehensive exam: a full check of the teeth, gums, bite and soft tissues, together with the x-rays your history calls for. We use the findings to build a written plan with costs and what your insurance covers before anything is scheduled.
If you are weighing up a treatment, a consultation gives you the answers first.
Consultations are available for any treatment we provide, from a single filling to implants. They are also where we clear patients for orthodontics and refer to an orthodontist when that is the right path.
Who it may be appropriate for
- New patients, as the starting point for everything else
- Anyone with a specific concern they want looked at properly
- People considering implants, veneers, dentures or other larger treatment who want to understand their options first
- Patients who need clearance or a referral for orthodontic treatment
A guide, not a diagnosis. Only an exam can confirm what is right for you.
