EXAMINATION, DIAGNOSTICS
Dental assessment is an extremely important and fundamental in maintaining and improving oral health. During this process, the dentist pays close attention to tooth decay, gum disease, any existing dental restorations or previous interventions, as well as the exclusion of oral diseases, oral cancer and precancerous lesions. The purpose of the examination is to preserve healthy dentition, detect problems at an early stage, develop an appropriate treatment plan, and, if necessary, refer the patient to the relevant specialist.
Our clinic, which has been operating for thirty years, covers the full spectrum of dental care. This means that our patients’ oral health problems are treated in-house by our own experienced specialists, whether in oral surgery, prosthodontics, orthodontics, or periodontology.
What happens during the examination?
The examination is not limited to the teeth alone: a thorough assessment also includes the oral cavity, the tooth-supporting structures, the jawbone, the mucosa, and the masticatory muscles, supplemented by X-rays and, if required, other diagnostic methods. At OralMed Studio, this is exactly how we proceed: we establish a diagnosis and then select the appropriate therapy together with the patient.
Why choose a digital dental examination?
The advantage of a digital dental examination is that it provides more accurate and faster results, which can also be easily compared with previous examinations. In addition, digital data can be stored and shared with other professionals more easily, which can support treatment planning and improve the efficiency of patient care.
Our clinic is equipped with the most advanced digital X-ray and CT technology currently available. In addition to standard images, our equipment is capable of producing detailed and sectional images of the temporomandibular joint, the sinuses, and the jawbones, as well as reconstructed stereo images.
The importance of oral cancer screening at our clinic
Oral cancers and precancerous conditions can be detected early with thorough, regular examinations and may be successfully treated with appropriate intervention. At OralMed Studio, oral cancer screening is performed for all new patients and repeated at regular intervals for our existing patients. This examination includes a detailed assessment of the entire oral mucosa, the teeth, the pharynx, and the cervical lymph nodes, supporting early detection and helping reduce the risk of disease progression. In the presence of specific symptoms or suspicion, we carry out further examinations and refer the patient to our specialist with expertise in the relevant field.
Histology, laboratory tests, bacterial culture tests
If our specialist considers further analysis of the removed tissue, blood, or secretions necessary, the samples are sent to an external laboratory or pathology department working in close cooperation with our clinic. This is essential in order to establish the most accurate diagnosis possible and then prepare the appropriate treatment plan. The reports of these examinations are always provided to our patients electronically and, if needed, in printed form as well.
