Comprehensive Exams in Vancouver
Clarity And Comfort From Your Very First Visit
Your first visit is not just about your teeth — it is about getting a full understanding of your oral health and what matters to you. Whether you are brand new to the clinic or just due for a checkup, we start every exam with a simple goal: clarity. That means no pressure, no assumptions, and no fast-talking. Just honest insight into your current condition and the options available.
We welcome patients of all ages, including those who have not seen a dentist in a while or who feel nervous about dental care. Our approach is always grounded in education, respect, and practical next steps.
What To Expect During An Exam
A review of your dental and medical history
Discussion of any symptoms, concerns, or goals
Full assessment of your teeth, gums, jaw, and bite
Oral cancer screening
Digital or traditional x-rays if needed
Clear explanation of findings and recommended care
We would not start treatment without talking through your options. If something needs attention, we will explain what is going on, what can be done, and what to consider next — with no pressure to decide on the spot.
Why Comprehensive Exams Matter
Even if your teeth feel fine, exams help us catch small issues before they become bigger problems. Gum disease, decay, and other conditions often begin silently. A full exam lets us catch those signs early and tailor care to your needs.
For New Patients
We are glad you found us. Your first appointment is a chance for us to listen, learn about your history, and create a clear path forward. If it is been a few years — or if you have had a negative dental experience in the past — we will take it slow and walk you through everything.
For Returning Patients
If we have seen you before, comprehensive exams help us update your records, compare changes over time, and refine your care plan. We recommend a full exam every 12 to 18 months, depending on your oral health.
