Dental Exams & Professional Cleanings in Palm Desert
Routine dental exams and professional cleanings are essential for maintaining healthy teeth and gums. At Dell’Acqua Choi Dental Studio in Palm Desert, we focus on preventative dental care to help you avoid serious oral health issues and keep your smile looking its best.
Comprehensive Dental Exam
At your initial visit, Dr. Junho Choi or Dr. Rene Dell’Acqua will perform a thorough dental exam to assess your overall oral health. Regular check-up exams include:
- Digital X-Rays – Detect cavities, bone loss, cysts, tumors, and root positioning with advanced imaging.
- Oral Cancer Screening – Examine the face, neck, lips, tongue, throat, gums, and oral tissues for early signs of oral cancer.
- Gum Disease Evaluation – Check for signs of gingivitis or periodontal disease, which can lead to tooth loss if untreated.
- Tooth Decay Inspection – Identify cavities and weakened enamel using specialized dental tools.
- Restoration Assessment – Evaluate existing fillings, crowns, and bridges for durability and effectiveness.
Professional Dental Cleaning
Regular dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup, reducing the risk of tooth decay and gum disease. Our Registered Dental Hygienists provide:
- Tartar Removal – Hardened plaque (calculus) is professionally removed from above and below the gum line.
- Plaque Removal – Bacteria-filled plaque is cleared away to prevent gingivitis and periodontal disease.
- Teeth Polishing – Surface stains and residual plaque are removed for a brighter, smoother smile.
By staying on top of routine exams and cleanings, you can protect your oral health and prevent costly dental treatments down the road.
