During general dental examination
Which tissues are examined?

General dental examination; While investigating the cause of existing complaints, it brings together caries that have not yet caused symptoms, gum findings, old restorations and the need for preventive care in the same evaluation.

The clinical team examines the teeth and oral tissues in detail
During the examination, gums, oral soft tissues and existing restorations are examined as well as tooth surfaces.

A good plan is not just about “what action to take?” not to the question “why and in what order?” It also answers the question.

We listen to your health history, medications you use, previous dental treatments and your current complaint. Then, we clinically evaluate the teeth, gums, oral tissues, bite and jaw area.

When imaging is required, the appropriate method is selected only for areas that may affect the treatment decision. Once the findings are gathered, options, priorities, and follow-up requirements are shared with you.

No symptoms does not always mean there is no problem.Changes noticed in the early period can be managed with preventive or more limited approaches.

Inspection process

From the first examination to the treatment plan
four basic steps.

The purpose of each step is different: health history provides the basis for safe treatment, clinical and radiographic records support the diagnosis, and personal risk assessment supports the preventive follow-up plan.

Frequently asked questions

General dental examination:
Curiosities.

The scope of the examination, imaging needs and review interval are determined according to current findings and personal oral-health risks.

After your complaint and health history are listened to, the teeth, fillings and restorations, gums, intraoral soft tissues, bite and jaw area are evaluated clinically. When necessary, appropriate imaging methods are used to support the diagnosis and treatment plan.

Some caries, gum problems and intraoral changes may not cause significant pain in the early period. Regular inspection; It helps recognize existing problems early, determine the need for preventive care, and monitor oral health.

No. Need for x-ray. It is determined by taking into account clinical findings, complaints, previous images, age and personal risk status. Appropriate imaging is requested only when it is necessary to evaluate an area not visible by examination or to support a treatment decision.

Review intervals are personalised according to the risk of decay and gum disease, existing restorations, oral hygiene, smoking, relevant systemic conditions and previous findings.

Priority is given to conditions that may cause pain, infection or progression. Gum care, decay and root canal treatment, surgery, prosthetic care and aesthetic stages are then sequenced to support one another. The plan may be adjusted according to examination findings.

Severe or increasing pain, swelling in the face or around the mouth, trauma, uncontrollable intraoral bleeding, and broken or dislodged restorations should be evaluated as soon as possible. Rapidly spreading swelling combined with difficulty breathing or swallowing requires immediate medical attention.
