An annual exam for every patient should be the standard for dental practices. In the medical field, it’s recommended that people receive an annual physical. That same principle should apply to dentistry.
By providing all patients a comprehensive exam every year, you will be able to: (1) detect problems earlier, (2) monitor periodontal health, (3) discuss their oral health goals, (4) and address immediate and long-term dental conditions. Your patients come to your office to receive the best care possible––an annual comprehensive exam should be included as part of that care.
