Extraoral Exams: Looking Beyond the Smile 🦷✨

At Merchant’s Walk Dental⁠, we believe dental care is about much more than just teeth. An extraoral exam is an important part of a comprehensive dental visit and includes evaluating the face, jaw joints (TMJ), neck, lymph nodes, lips, and surrounding tissues.

Dr. Bishara and Dr. Milli believe these exams are an essential part of delivering complete patient care because oral health and overall health are closely connected. By looking beyond the teeth alone, dentists can identify changes that may require further attention.

✔ Evaluates facial symmetry and jaw function
✔ Assesses lymph nodes and surrounding tissues
✔ Helps identify abnormalities or areas of concern
✔ Supports early oral cancer screening and detection

Many conditions do not cause pain or obvious symptoms in their early stages. A few extra moments spent on a comprehensive exam can play an important role in protecting both your oral health and your overall well-being.

Your smile is part of a bigger picture—and comprehensive care means caring for all of it. 🦷🪥😊

Here are some tips for common dental emergencies from the ADA:

-For a knocked-out permanent or adult tooth, keep it moist at all times. If you can, try placing the tooth back in the socket without touching the root. If that’s not possible, place it in between your cheek and gums, in milk, or use a tooth preservation product that has the ADA Seal of Acceptance. Then, get to your dentist’s office right away.

-For a cracked tooth, immediately rinse the mouth with warm water to clean the area. Put cold compresses on the face to keep any swelling down.

-If you bite your tongue or lip, clean the area gently with water and apply a cold compress.

-For toothaches, rinse the mouth with warm water to clean it out. Gently use dental floss to remove any food caught between the teeth. Do not put aspirin on the aching tooth or gum tissues.

-For objects stuck in the mouth, try to gently remove with floss but do not try to remove it with sharp or pointed instruments.
