• Full Dental Consultation

  At our dental office, a full dental consultation is all about making you feel informed and comfortable. When you come in, we’ll start with a friendly chat to understand your concerns and goals for your smile. Next, we’ll take a thorough look at your oral health using advanced digital tools like 3D imaging, ensuring we get a clear picture of your needs. From there, we’ll walk you through our findings, explain any recommended treatments, and answer all your questions. We’ll create a personalized care plan just for you, making sure you feel confident and supported every step of the way.

• Digital X-Rays

  At River District Smiles Dentistry, getting digital X-rays is a quick and easy part of your dental consultation. Using advanced digital technology, we capture detailed images of your teeth and gums in just a few minutes. These X-rays provide a clear, accurate view of any hidden issues, like cavities or bone loss, without the need for traditional film. Plus, they use less radiation, making them a safer option. Once the images are ready, we’ll go over them with you, explaining everything in simple terms so you know exactly what’s going on with your oral health.

• Dental Examination

  Your dental exam is a key part of maintaining a healthy smile. During the exam, our Dr. Matthew or Emily Hubis will carefully check your teeth, gums, and overall oral health. We’ll look for any signs of cavities, gum disease, or other issues, using advanced tools to ensure nothing is missed. It’s a thorough, comfortable process, and we’ll explain what we find as we go. If we spot any concerns, we’ll discuss treatment options with you. Our goal is to keep your smile healthy and catch any problems early so you can enjoy lasting dental wellness.
