Oral Examinations in Mesa, AZ

Routine oral exams are an essential part of maintaining your dental health. At Woolf Dental, we use these visits to look beyond the surface—checking not just for cavities, but for early signs of gum disease, bite issues, and even oral cancer. These regular checkups help us catch problems early when they’re easier to treat and less likely to impact your long-term health.

We typically perform a comprehensive exam during your cleaning appointment, but we may also recommend additional exams if you have specific concerns or ongoing treatment needs. Every exam is tailored to you, so you leave with a clear understanding of your oral health and what steps, if any, should come next.

A routine oral exam may include:

  • A visual evaluation of your teeth, gums, and bite
  • Periodontal screening to check gum health
  • Screening for signs of oral cancer or unusual tissue changes
  • X-rays, when needed, to spot issues below the surface
  • Time to discuss any symptoms or concerns you may have

Whether you’re due for a cleaning or you’re coming in with a specific concern, we’re here to support you with thoughtful care and expert guidance.
