Examinations
Regular examinations, by Dr. Lauren Becker, help detect and prevent health issues before they become serious. Consistent dental check-ups help catch problems when they are small and easier to treat. Left unattended, small treatable problems become worse and may require more extensive, expensive procedures to repair. Dental examinations generally include the following:
• |
Gum disease screening
|
• |
Oral cancer screening
|
• |
Visual tooth decay evaluation
|
• |
Gum pocket measurement and tracking
|
• |
X-ray examination to detect: tooth decay, cysts, tumors, problems below the gums and other hidden issues |
Regular examinations by Dr. Lauren Becker are very important for your health. Remember, "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." –Benjamin Franklin
