A Complete Picture of Your Oral Health
We take time to understand what is happening now, explain what we see, and help you make a clear plan for what comes next.
01 · EXAM
Thorough Evaluation
Dr. Galperin examines your teeth, gums, bite, jaw, mouth, and throat. Digital images or X-rays may be recommended when they can help us see more.
02 · SCREENING
Oral Cancer Screening
We carefully check for unusual changes in the soft tissues of your mouth. If something needs attention, we explain the finding and the appropriate next step.
03 · CLEANING
Professional Cleaning
Our team gently removes plaque and tartar, then polishes and flosses your teeth so your smile feels fresh and clean.
Prevention Feels Better Than Repair
Many dental problems develop quietly. Routine visits give us the opportunity to identify decay, gum inflammation, dental wear, and other changes early—often before you experience discomfort.
Your ideal visit schedule depends on your health and risk factors. Many patients benefit from exams about every six months; we will recommend the timing that fits you.
Consider Scheduling an Exam If:
- It has been six months or longer since your last dental visit.
- Your gums bleed when brushing or flossing.
- You notice sensitivity, discomfort, bad breath, or a change in your bite.
- You want a clear starting point for a healthier smile.
Good Questions Are Always Welcome
We want you to feel comfortable and informed before, during, and after your visit.
How often should I have a dental exam?
Many patients benefit from an examination and professional cleaning about every six months. If you have gum disease, frequent cavities, or another oral health concern, we may recommend more frequent visits.
Will my dental cleaning hurt?
Routine cleanings are usually comfortable and do not require anesthetic. Tell us if you feel sensitive or anxious. We can adjust our approach and keep you informed throughout your visit.
Will I need dental X-rays?
Not at every visit. We recommend X-rays based on your age, dental history, symptoms, risk factors, and how long it has been since your last images.
What should I bring to my first appointment?
Please bring your photo ID, dental insurance information, medication list, and any recent dental records or X-rays you have available.
