Check Ups

Dental checkups are more than mere superficial visual scans of the teeth.  Our comprehensive dental checkups examine the teeth, gums, tongue, cheeks to identify decay, recession, gingivitis, oral cancer and other maladies as soon as possible.  If you have not been to a dentist in Carol Stream in the past six months or longer, you are overdue for a checkup.  Put your faith in our dentist, John E. Sullivan DDS, and you’ll receive a comprehensive dental checkup that identifies looming issues as well as problems that pose a direct threat to your oral health and overarching biological health. 

Every patient should be aware that there are nerves within and below teeth that transmit blood to the rest of the body, meaning the presence of bacteria or other harmful diminutive threats within teeth will make their way to other body sites unless you proactively address those issues before they compromise your health.  Schedule a six-month checkup for yourself and your family members with our dental practice in Carol Stream by dialing (630) 665-7350 and you’ll rest easy knowing you’ve done your part to keep your teeth, gums tongue and other parts of your mouth as healthy as possible. 

Our dental checkups analyze the surfaces of teeth and also the spaces in between teeth with x-rays.  Our dentist then cleans the teeth by removing tartar and plaque, addresses decay with fillings and also highlights other areas in need of restorative or cosmetic treatments/procedures.
