Overview

Dental examination is an inspection of the teeth and surrounding soft tissues of the oral cavity. Usually a dental examination is followed by the taking of x-rays. The dentist then examines the soft tissues including the cheeks, palate, throat, tongue, floor of the mouth, and your lips. The teeth are evaluated for cracks, decay, malformations and malocclusions. The dentist will also look for problems such as food traps and bleeding gums. The examiner generally uses an explorer, periodontal probe and other instruments. Fillings are also inspected, and a radiographic record of the teeth is usually made. Finally, after the dental examination the dentist constructs a personalized treatment plan for each patient.
