Kick Off Your Dental Visit with a New Patient Dental Exam

At Flower Mound Dental: Dr. William E. Wyatt, Jr., we like to welcome patients to our dental office with a new patient dental exam. This exam is more comprehensive than a regular dental check-up as it’s a time to get to know you and introduce our dental team. Whether you are new to Flower Mound, Texas, or haven’t seen a dentist for years, a new patient dental exam will give you a better idea of how to meet your dental care needs. 

What to Expect from a New Patient Exam

A new patient dental exam is a great way to kick off your dental care services. You’ll have a chance to meet Dr. Will Wyatt and our team and get to know our facility. We’ll also have an opportunity to get to know you better and assess your dental care needs.

We’ll start your exam by reviewing your medical and dental history. We’ll take note of health issues and medications you’re taking that may affect your dental care. We’ll also discuss prior dental treatments and how they’ve impacted your oral health. We’ll review any concerns you may have about your teeth or gums and answer questions about your oral care. Then, we will move on to the physical aspects of your exam. 

This exam will include:

• Digital and panoramic x-rays of your teeth to evaluate the state of your gums, jaw, and teeth
• A thorough inspection of your gums and teeth
• A periodontal evaluation to detect signs of gum disease
• An oral cancer screening test
• A complete set of intraoral dental photographs.

Dr. Wyatt will update you on your oral health at the end of your exam. If we uncover dental issues like decay or gum disease, we’ll recommend options for treatment. We’ll also discuss your oral health goals and schedule future appointments to meet them.
