An oral exam is the foundation of dental care

Dr. Parker and his professional staff see their patients every 6 months for a complete oral exam and hygienic cleaning. A regular, comprehensive exam spots problems and potential problems before they are complicated, painful, harder to treat and harmful to systemic health. Cleanings, often called prophylaxis, work with home hygiene habits to remove bacteria-laden plaque and tartar from tooth enamel, interdental spaces and the gum line.

When Dr. Parker evaluates gums, he measures gum pockets and looks for signs of recession, bleeding and infection. If necessary, he can begin periodontal, or gum disease, therapy to deep clean tooth and root surfaces via hand scaling and root planing. This procedure restores gum tissue, stops damage to bone and prevents serious conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, dementia, arthritis, osteoporosis and hypertension.

In addition, during a check-up, your Marshall, TX dentist:

• inspects for signs of tooth decay
• does orthodontic evaluation
• checks for signs of oral cancer
• checks how your teeth bite together
• evaluates for TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorder and tooth grinding (bruxism)
• checks existing restorations such as fillings, crowns, bridgework and dentures and also those bothersome wisdom teeth
• takes x-rays and other imaging when needed to evaluate roots and jaw

With his findings, Dr. Parker creates a treatment plan that incorporates immediate and long-term needs and also aesthetic goals such as improved tooth color or treating chips and gaps. f At Marshall Denture and Dental Clinic, each patient is treated as an individual with needs specific to their health and appearance.
