How to prepare for a dental consultation

Good preparation will help you get the most out of your visit. First of all, you need to inform your doctor about possible allergic reactions to medications, materials (for example, latex). Information is extremely important for the safety of treatment. List the medications you take on a regular basis, including over-the-counter medications, vitamins, and dietary supplements. Some substances affect blood clotting and gum health.

Don't hesitate to ask any questions during your dental consultation regarding the following aspects:

• the condition of your teeth and gums in general;
• treatment options, advantages and disadvantages of each;
• approximate cost of services;
• methods of pain relief;
• basics of home care.

Sometimes, to make an accurate diagnosis, the Ali Dental doctor needs additional information. This may include:

• an x-ray to see the condition of the tooth roots, bone tissue, and hidden carious lesions;
• computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging of the maxillofacial area for detailed visualization;
• ultrasound examination of salivary glands, lymph nodes, joints;
• biopsy - taking tissue samples at a dentist's consultation for examination under a microscope to detect neoplasms, pathological changes;
• microbiological studies - taking samples from the oral cavity to detect bacteria, fungi, viruses;
• biochemical analysis of saliva;
• diagnostic modeling for planning prosthetics, implantation.

The doctor at the Ali Dental clinic determines the necessary scope of examination individually in each case.
