Adult Oral Health Exams in Baltimore MD With Dr. Kheri-Ann Robinson

A typical dental exam takes about 30 to 60 minutes and includes a medical history review, a full oral exam, a professional dental cleaning, an oral cancer screening, and a check for changes in your oral health since the last visit. Routine exams check for gum disease, tooth decay, and other oral conditions early, when treatment is simpler.

Regular dental exams help prevent gum disease and tooth decay, two of the most common oral health problems in adults. More than 90% of US adults are affected by dental caries, and about 42% of adults over 30 have periodontal disease. Catching issues early protects your natural teeth and your general health.
