Baig Dental believes that properly conducted dentistry like x-rays, exams, and cleanings is the best way to protect your teeth and promote wellness. We have modern techniques and the best standards for those seeking Sherman Oaks cleanings, X-Rays, and exams.

What to Expect When You Visit

New patients to Baig Dental will give the dentist a history of both their standard health and mouth health. The dentist does an exam and could order dental x-rays to see if there are any hidden issues with your teeth. Then, a dentist goes over any issues with you and sets up a plan for correction. Finally, your mouth will get a cleaning.

Why Dental Exams Are Important

Dental exams are important to find complications before there are symptoms. A dentist can find decay or disease you were unaware of and that allows you to take early measures to protect your teeth and mouth.

Some issues found through dental exams include cavities, gum disease gum recession, or an infection. Early intervention in these situations can help save and protect teeth.

What Happens During an X-ray?

X-rays are simple procedures that offer the dentists at Baig Dental a lot of information. There are different types of x-rays that the dentist uses depending on the view and area that may be causing a problem.

The procedure only takes a few minutes and digital x-rays can show immediate results. Your dentist will look at them and go over any issues he finds.

The only issue some people have with x-rays is holding the cardboard or plastic pieces in their mouths while the x-ray is being done. Talk to your dentist beforehand if you have this issue.

Why Dental Cleanings are Important

Cleanings remove tartar and plaque that can lead to gum disease. This is an important way to prevent periodontal disease and tooth loss. Cleanings are painless and typically take less than an hour unless there are complications.

Most people should get dental cleanings twice a year, although some can go once a year as long as they are healthy and have good oral hygiene.
