Dental Exams
During your first appointment at Segal Dental we will perform a baseline screening of your teeth and gums and monitor any changes or developments in your dental health at recurrent checkups.
Some of the conditions and habits that we will be assessing, include:
-
Integrity of existing dental work
-
Biting patterns and tooth wear
-
Missing teeth
-
Bone height and density
-
Gum attachment levels around the teeth
-
Inflammation and bacterial levels
-
Screening for oral cancer/pathology
-
Aesthetic concerns
-
Tooth decay or enamel demineralization
-
Preventative strategies
-
Nutrition and oral hygiene
Be sure to let Dr. Segal know of any recent health changes (including medications that you may be taking) as certain medical conditions can impact the health of your mouth. Through a holistic approach to care, we can minimize any potential side-effects of medication or risk factors that may be involved.
Oral cancer screenings are also an important part of every patient exam. Even if you do not have the normal risk factors of tobacco and alcohol use, it’s important to understand that cancer can also be caused by things like certain viruses (like HPV) and sun exposure. Early diagnosis is the key to successful and effective treatment! An oral cancer screening could save your life.

Teeth Cleaning
Great oral hygiene (including daily flossing) is key to minimizing your risk of tooth decay and gum disease. But even great home care can leave some plaque biofilm behind. After about 24-hours, that soft plaque can calcify into hard “tartar” (calculus) that isn’t possible to lift away with a toothbrush or floss.
When you schedule a preventive cleaning every six months, we lift away calcified tartar deposits across your teeth, between them, and just under the gum lines.
Our Registered Dental Hygienists use special technology to gently clean away tartar and polish surface stains, leaving your smile fresher, brighter, and easier to maintain until your next dental checkup.

Deep Teeth Cleaning
Also known as periodontal scaling and root planning. If your teeth are not professionally cleaned you may progress into a more severe form of gum disease known as periodontists. This inflammatory response causes symptoms like:
-
Bleeding, swollen gums
-
Bad breath
-
Gum recession (“long teeth”)
-
Heavy tartar buildup and stain
-
Tooth mobility and loss
Advanced gum infections call for a more proactive and therapeutic measure. Deep cleanings allow us to remove the bacteria below the gum lines that are causing the tissue detachment and tooth mobility. The aim is to prevent tooth loss and improve our patients’ overall health.
Untreated periodontal disease is a serious risk factor to your overall health. Unfortunately, habits such as smoking or smokeless tobacco use can cover the symptoms. We recommend having a periodontal screening/exam at least 1-2 times per year to pinpoint signs of gum and bone loss before they become severe. We perform these exams at every visit
During a periodontal scaling and root planing visit, we may anesthetize (numb) the area being cleaned to minimize any discomfort and ensure thorough results.
We recommend that our periodontal patients return for maintenance cleanings at least every 3-4 months to minimize the risk of relapse and ensure a proper recovery.
