Dental Services – A Brief Summary

• Comprehensive Examinations include:
  Oral Cancer Screening
  Bite and Occlusal Functionality
  Jaw and Muscle Functionality
  Periodontal Assessment
  • “During the comprehensive exam, I evaluate your present dental health including your teeth, muscles, and joints. Alterations in their functional harmony causes uneven wear . . . especially in the front teeth, drifting of teeth, and fractures, to name a few. Many people believe these are signs of aging or stress when . . . in reality . . . it is considered a functional disease.” Leigh T. Meyer, DMD
• Comprehensive Dental Hygiene and Periodontal Procedures:
  • “Your soft tissues are evaluated thoroughly during the comprehensive exam. I check for any signs of pathology including cancer and pre-cancerous lesions. Your gums are checked for bleeding, pocketing, and recession. This is extremely important since periodontal disease affects about 80% of the adult population. Periodontal disease often progresses undetected because of its usually painless nature.” Leigh T. Meyer, DMD
