Check-up and Cleaning

We recommend that you book for a check up and cleaning for your first visit to Summerlea Dental. Your appointment will consist of 3 stages.

1. Check-In We will gather your information including your medical history. This is either done on a computer using our exclusive Fast Check-In, or manually on a paper form.

2. Meet our hygienist. Julie will assess your gingival and periodontal health and make an assessment for your personalized maintenance needs. She will also take xrays if necessary. The bulk of your appointment is spent cleaning (scaling) your teeth followed by polish and fluoride.

3. Meet the doctor. Dr. Taha Jomha will then perform a detailed oral exam. This consists of a soft tissue exam including cancer screening. Next your dentition (teeth) will be assessed. Your first appointment will be longer in case you have questions for Dr. Jomha. At Summerlea Dental it is important that patients do not feel rushed and can spend time educating themselves about their dental health. Your visit may also include impressions (models) and intra oral pictures.
