Regular Checkups

Regular check-ups are important to monitor your teeth and existing dental work. Most problems including decay (cavities) do not hurt until they become very serious. Your check-up includes an exam by Dr. Malouf and any necessary x-rays.

X-rays enable Dr. Malouf to see problems that are not visible by his examination alone.

Our office uses digital x-rays, which use 75% less radiation than conventional x-rays. Digital x-rays are very accurate, and the images are instantly displayed on a computer monitor for Dr. Malouf to review with you. 

Daily brushing and flossing will keep plaque and tartar (hardened plaque) to a minimum, but only a professional cleaning will remove tartar in places your toothbrush and floss have missed. Your regular cleanings are important to prevent gum disease and monitor the health of your gums.
