While a dentist’s examination may seem quick, the practitioners at Costa Dentistry are checking for a laundry list of signals about the health of your teeth, gums, cheeks, lips, and tongue. Dentists can detect issues with your bite and jaw, screen for cancer, and take X-rays for a deeper look at potential infections, bone loss, and more. 

While a professional cleaning by a hygienist is usually a part of the appointment, the day may also include a discussion of your medical history and your oral health habits, especially for new patients.
