Comprehensive Dental Exam

At Eagle Dental Wellness Center, a dental exam is a comprehensive evaluation that goes beyond just checking for cavities.

Using advanced diagnostic technology, Dr. Beena John and Dr. Troy Ridriguez create a complete picture of your oral health and how it impacts your body. This thorough exam allows us to identify and treat the root causes of dental problems rather than just addressing symptoms.

Your Comprehensive Evaluation at Eagle Dental Wellness

Your comprehensive evaluation includes the following, in addition to the same steps as a traditional dental exam.

Advanced Imaging and Diagnostics

Cone beam CT (CBCT) provides 3-D imaging that reveals your bone structure, airway dimensions, sinus cavities, nerve pathways, and TMJ anatomy in complete detail.
Low-dose digital x-rays capture high-resolution images, providing essential diagnostic information while minimizing your exposure.
Pearl AI technology adds an additional layer of accuracy by using artificial intelligence to analyze your x-rays.
Intraoral scanning creates precise digital impressions of your teeth that allow us to track changes over time and create precise restorations.
Intraoral images help with treatment planning, tracking progress over time, and allowing you to see what we see in your mouth.
T-scan technology analyzes dental occlusion and provides valuable information to determine and restore the perfect balance of your dental bite.

Why Our Patients Choose Comprehensive Dental Exams

Biological dentistry looks far beyond your teeth and gums to evaluate how oral health impacts overall health and wellness and provide individualized treatment that benefits both.

Advanced DiagnosticTechnology

We use cone beam CT imaging, digital intraoral scanning, Pearl AI analysis, and T-scan bite assessment to obtain more in-depth information than a basic dental exam.

Whole Body Assessment

Your comprehensive exam evaluates the link between oral health and overall systemic health, including sleep quality, inflammation, cardiovascular health, and immune function.

Personalized Treatment

The detailed information we gather becomes the foundation for a tailored treatment plan that addresses your specific dental needs, health goals, and biological considerations.

Specialized Dental Testing and Screening

Saliva screening analyzes saliva to identify specific bacteria, pH levels, and other indicators that signal oral disease like cavities and gum disease.
EAV biocompatibility testing identifies which dental materials your immune system tolerates best, so we can choose fillings, crowns, and implants that work with your unique biology.
Airway and sleep screening evaluates signs of sleep-disordered breathing, including narrow airways, tongue position, and soft tissue that may obstruct breathing during sleep.
Nutritional assessment as needed to recommend specific supplements to support gut health and oral wellness.

Understanding Your Results

After completing your comprehensive exam, we will review the findings with you in detail. We explain what the diagnostics show us and clearly explain treatment options, including risks, benefits, and alternatives. Then we plan your treatment based on need and personal goals, but the decisions about how to proceed are always yours.
