Having routine dental checkups with an oral exam and dental X-Rays in Lafayette, LA are important to your dental health, as the X-Rays provide our dentists with an up close view of your dental structure that can’t be seen with the naked eye. Plus, they are a great way to keep your smile and teeth in great shape and avoid dental emergencies later on that can be more costly..

Oral Exam in Lafayette, LA

One of our 4 dental hygienists in Lafayette, along with your dentist, will review your dental X-rays and perform an oral exam to check the health of your teeth and gums, along with examining other previous dental restorations such as fillings or crowns to make sure they are in good shape.

The good thing about preventative dental care, is if your dentist spots signs of cavities or gum disease, they can help you proactively take care of them. Your regular 6 month dental exam in Lafayette, LA is a great time to ask your dental professional about any questions you may have about your oral health. This is also a great time to review tips and techniques for good brushing and flossing habits with your dental hygienist to keep your smile as healthy as possible between visits.

So why do I need an Oral Exam and Dental X Ray?

An oral exam, commonly referred to as a dental checkup, is the process used by dentists to carefully review your oral health.  Oral exams typically involve the entire mouth, as a component of a first-time visit or a regular 6-month check-up. Oral exams, along with Dental X Rays in Lafayette, Louisiana, can also be used to identify a specific issue in one particular area of the mouth, such as pain, swelling, broken teeth, or other dental problems. Dental X-rays are a critical part of the diagnostic process for oral health.

Are dental x-rays safe?

We are all exposed to natural radiation in our environment.  The amount of radiation exposure from a full mouth series of x-rays is equal to the amount a person receives in a single day from natural sources.

Dental x-rays produce a low level of radiation and are considered safe.  Dentists take necessary precautions to limit the patient’s exposure to radiation when taking dental x-rays.  These precautions include using lead apron shields to protect the body and using modern, fast film that cuts down the exposure time of each x-ray.

Oral Exams and Dental X-Rays Cost and Insurance Coverage

The cost of oral exams and X-rays vary and depend on multiple factors including frequency and type of x-ray needed.  Your dentist will review with you what type and frequency of X-rays and exams are needed to maintain your optimal oral health.

If you have dental insurance, your coverage often includes preventative care including regular exams and X-rays.  It is important to stay up to date with your insurance coverage, as most insurance policies reset their costs to you at the beginning of each year.  Our staff are happy to review your coverage with you to ensure you are maximizing your insurance benefits while minimizing any out of pocket expenses.
