Your exam may include an oral cancer screening, digital X-rays, and intraoral photos. The dentist will explain their findings and make recommendations for treatment. Your cleaning will be performed at this visit, or at a subsequent visit, depending on your needs.  We look forward to seeing you in our office!  Please call us for an appointment at (903)839-6069
