Duncan Dental on Elizabeth Street and 11th Avenue provides a comprehensive dental care approach, offering its signature Exam & X-Rays Check-Up service to foster optimal oral health.

A cornerstone of preventive dentistry, our dental examination is a meticulous process that allows our dentists to thoroughly inspect all soft and hard tissues in your mouth. The goal is to detect any issues or abnormalities that could lead to complications down the line. Many dental diseases remain asymptomatic until they progress to advanced stages, making these regular examinations vital in identifying potential problems before they evolve into significant, possibly irreversible issues.

Our dental examinations are much more than a simple visual check; they are an opportunity to delve deeper into your oral health status. To complement our visual evaluations, we incorporate radiographs or X-rays into our process. These provide a deeper, more detailed view of your oral structures, enabling a full and comprehensive assessment.

Our toolkit includes various types of Dental X-rays. Routine annual bite-wing X-rays, for instance, are a crucial aspect of our examinations. These images allow us to explore the spaces between your teeth, detect any onset of decay, and assess the quality and health of existing restorations.

In addition, we utilize periapical radiographs. These unique X-rays let us examine the bone health and nerve condition surrounding each tooth, providing an exhaustive evaluation of each tooth's foundation.

Moreover, we also employ OPG/panoramic radiographs, a common but powerful screening tool. These X-rays give us a holistic view of both the upper and lower jaw, the jaw joint, sinus space, and the roots and restorations in all teeth, presenting a complete picture of your oral health.

At Duncan Dental, our Dental Exam & X-Rays Check-Up service is more than a routine check; it's a comprehensive, preventive approach to ensure your oral health is always in top form. Trust our dedicated team to offer thorough examinations, early problem detection, and preventive solutions, all in the welcoming and friendly environment of our Tauranga clinics.
