EXAM
Every patient is assessed on an individual basis. We can assess and diagnose oral health conditions which includes; identifying cavities, suspicious oral lesions, gingivitis, and other periodontal conditions to name a few.
At Nu-Gen we invite a collaborative health care approach and will happily work with your dentist. If you already have recent radiographs from your dentist we would be more than glad to review those instead of taking new films. Should your dentist need recent radiographs from Nu-Gen Dental Hygiene, we can securely send them to your dentist for their review.
