What is Dental Examination?

A dental examination includes a thorough examination of the teeth, gums, lips, tongue and mouth. Dental examinations are also an important part of the dental hygiene routine. Dental examinations are usually performed in dental centers or outpatient clinics and are usually performed by a dentist or endodontist. Regular check-ups can detect potential problems at an early stage, allowing treatment to be more effective.

What is done during a dental examination?

A dental examination is a comprehensive procedure performed by dentists to assess oral health. Dental examinations are usually free of charge at private dental centers and the stages of a dental examination may include

Patient history taking: First of all, the dentist asks questions about oral and dental health, obtains information about the condition and informs the patient about the examination process. Past dental problems, oral hygiene habits and current symptoms are important data for the doctor to provide detailed information.
Visual examination: The dentist visually examines the mouth and teeth, looking for cavities, gum disease, tooth enamel wear and other potential problems. This examination is usually done using a mouth mirror and lighting.
Physical examination: In equipped dental centers, the dentist examines the teeth and gums manually and using special sterilized medical instruments. This allows to check the sensitivity and soundness of the teeth and gums.
X-rays: If necessary, the dentist will take X-rays. These films help to detect problems between and under the teeth, especially in the early stages of decay.
Post-examination evaluation: After the examination, the dentist will discuss the findings with the patient and recommend any necessary treatments or measures. He or she may also give advice on dental care and hygiene.

In addition, pre-dental examination preparations such as previous dental treatments, medications used or the preparation of any oral health problems and oral hygiene can help the examination process to be more efficient and effective.

Why is a Dental Examination Important?

Regular dental examinations can help the dentist keep teeth, gums and oral health in good condition. Examinations can screen for oral cancer and check for the need for repairs, fillings or other dental treatments. They can also examine harmful habits that can affect the teeth and mouth, such as teeth grinding and smoking, and their effects. The dentist can identify and plan treatment for any problems with teeth and oral health before they become painful, difficult and costly to treat.

Mouth and dental health is directly related to general health. Therefore, regular dental examinations can support general health. In addition, dental examinations are important to assess and improve personal dental hygiene habits and support people to have better oral health.

Curiosities about Examination and Consultation

A typical dental examination and dental hygiene appointment can take approximately 30-60 minutes. The patient's age, dental health and the frequency of regular dental examinations can affect the duration of the appointment. However, the duration of the examination may vary depending on individual needs, practice policies and additional procedures to be performed during the examination.

After the dental examination, the dentist informs the patient about possible oral health problems and treatment options. In some cases, it may be recommended to develop brushing and flossing habits, while in cases of caries or more serious oral health problems, the dentist may plan immediate treatment or schedule a future appointment after mutual consultation with the patient.

People with healthy teeth and gums can usually have a dental check-up once or twice a year, depending on the schedule prescribed by the dentist. However, people with ongoing dental health problems may need more frequent dental check-up appointments.
