Comprehensive examinations

A patient's initial visit includes a comprehensive examination and a professional cleaning. Dr. Marisol Lopez-Belio and her team evaluate the condition of a patient's teeth, gums, bones, and their bite (how the teeth come together when the jaw is closed). The analysis of a person's bite focuses on the interaction of the facial muscles and nerves and the positioning of a patient's jaw. The reason for such a thorough examination is to alleviate present and potential causes of pain (headaches, jaw pain, clicking or popping of the jaw) and, above all, to ensure that all the parts of a patient's dental and facial health work together optimally.

Dental restorations are completed with an eye not only for beauty, but for optimal function. For more on our general dentistry procedures offered at our office, contact us and arrange a consultation.
