At Bingham Dental, understanding your dental history, oral health concerns, and personal goals is essential for delivering bespoke care.

During your consultation, we’ll discuss your dental needs, preferences, and any specific concerns.

This thorough conversation allows us to tailor our approach to meet your unique requirements.

The next stage of our examination involves an assessment of the salivary glands, the lymph nodes in the neck, and the Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ).

This thorough evaluation helps us identify any underlying issues that may affect your oral and overall health, ensuring a complete understanding of your dental needs.

Our soft tissue examination and oral cancer screening are vital parts of your comprehensive dental check-up. We carefully assess the soft tissues of your mouth, including gums, cheeks, and tongue, to identify any abnormalities.

Our oral cancer screening is designed to detect early signs of potential issues, ensuring your long-term oral and overall health is well protected.

By evaluating how your teeth meet together when you bite, along with checking for any misalignment, we can identify problems such as uneven wear, jaw strain, or potential bite issues.

This careful assessment allows us to recommend the most suitable treatment options to improve both function and aesthetics.

At Bingham Dental, we place great importance on assessing your periodontal (gum) health, as healthy gums are the foundation of strong teeth.

During your examination, we check for signs of inflammation, recession, or bleeding, and evaluate plaque and tartar buildup.

By measuring the pockets around your teeth, we can detect early signs of gum disease. This thorough assessment allows us to create a personalised treatment plan to keep your gums healthy, ensuring long-term stability for your teeth.

We check each tooth for signs of decay, cracks, wear, or damage, and assess the condition of any existing restorations, such as fillings or crowns.

By closely examining your teeth, we can identify any potential problems early on and provide the appropriate treatment to maintain the health, strength, and appearance of your smile.

At Bingham Dental, if our examination reveals the need for further investigation, we may recommend special tests, including radiography.

These advanced diagnostics help us gain a deeper understanding of any underlying issues that may not be visible during a standard examination.

By combining these findings with our initial assessment, we can arrive at a precise diagnosis and work with you to develop a mutually agreeable treatment plan that best suits your needs.
