About Dental Exams
Every exam is a full health check for your mouth — not just a quick look. We screen for decay, gum disease, bite issues, and oral cancer, then walk you through exactly what we see.
What to expect
- Tooth-by-tooth evaluation

More about Dental Exams
Your exam begins with a review of any concerns or changes since your last visit. Dr. Kerio then performs a thorough tooth-by-tooth inspection, gum assessment, and bite analysis. We screen for oral cancer and check for signs of grinding, clenching, or airway issues. If imaging is needed, we take only the minimum necessary. Afterward, we sit down with you to explain what we found, show you any images, and discuss next steps — whether that's simply scheduling your next cleaning or planning treatment.
