Your first visit to Paseo Family Dental and Dentures is an essential step toward maintaining optimal oral health. During your initial consultation, our dentist and team will conduct a comprehensive oral examination to assess the health of your teeth, gums and overall oral structures. This first visit allows us to establish a clear understanding of your dental needs and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to you.

Comprehensive Oral Examination

Your initial consultation will include a thorough visual inspection of your teeth and gums. Dr. Darren Chugg will carefully assess for signs of tooth decay, gum disease and any abnormalities in your oral tissues. We may utilize digital X-rays to gain a more detailed view of your dental structures, allowing us to identify hidden concerns such as bone loss, impacted teeth or cavities that are not visible during a standard examination. In addition, we may perform an oral cancer screening to detect any early signs of abnormal tissue changes. Early detection is key to addressing concerns before they develop into more complex issues.

Periodontal & Occlusal Assessment

A periodontal evaluation is an important part of your initial visit. Our team will measure the depth of your gum pockets to assess the health of your gums and identify any signs of periodontal disease. If gum disease is detected, we will discuss the appropriate treatment options to restore your gum health. Additionally, we will examine your bite (occlusion) to determine if any misalignment issues could be affecting your oral function or contributing to symptoms such as jaw pain or teeth grinding.

Personalized Treatment Planning

Once your examination is complete, our dentist will review the findings with you in detail. We believe in transparent communication and will explain any areas of concern, as well as the available treatment options. Our goal is to ensure you are well-informed and comfortable with your dental care plan. Whether you require preventive care, restorative treatments or cosmetic enhancements, we will work with you to develop a treatment strategy that aligns with your oral health goals.
