Complete examination and diagnosis
A structured first visit to understand your oral health.
The complete examination is the foundation of any thoughtful treatment plan. Beyond a simple glance, it is a structured assessment of your oral health, your history and your goals. At the studio, each examination follows a precise protocol: medical questionnaire, clinical observation, periodontal measurements, imaging as indicated, clinical photography and an open discussion with the patient. The goal is not only to detect existing problems, but also to identify the risk factors that could generate them. You leave with a clear understanding of your situation and, when relevant, a treatment plan organized by clinical priorities.

The examination identifies needs observable at the time of the visit. Certain conditions may require follow-up or additional examinations.
When a situation goes beyond what can be treated at the studio, we coordinate referral to an appropriate specialist. Certain treatments may require specialized expertise or interdisciplinary care — in those cases, we favour a clear, documented and coordinated referral.
Follow-up and care
You leave with a written report, clear recommendations and, when relevant, a treatment plan prioritized by clinical importance.
