A comprehensive oral exam defined by the ADA is a thorough evaluation and recording of all extraoral, intraoral and soft tissues. A periodical oral exam defined by the ADA is an exam that is performed on established patients to determine any changes in dental and health status since a previous comprehensive or periodic exam.
The ADA also recommends that new dental patients undergo a comprehensive oral examination on their first visit and current patients have a full oral exam once every three years.
At Boise Dental Chair, it takes an entire appointment slot to undergo a comprehensive oral examination at our state-of-the-art facility. Below is an overview of what you can expect from a full oral exam at Boise Dental Chair. To schedule an appointment with us, please call (208) 912-0555.
