Possibly the one thing in dentistry that Dr Orb is the most passionate about is making sure that everyone has a full and accurate knowledge of their dentition by a complete diagnostic exam. Whether this is to create a treatment plan to repair their dentition or to just reassure that everything is healthy, the New Patient exam of today is quite different to what most patients have previously experienced.
To make sure patients receive the most accurate information about their dental health, Dr Orb uses three imaging techniques so patients are able to see beyond the smile they view in the mirror. Dr Orb believes if a patient is able to visibly see a potential problem, rather than just being told what is wrong and what to do, it can help them decide their best treatment option.
Each New Patient Diagnostic Exam requires a full hour to allow Dr Orb to complete his clinical examination, present all findings as well as the many different options there are now available in dentistry. Legally and ethically, Dr Orb is bound to present all findings and potential treatment options available.
Dr Orb believes that only after all outcomes are understood by the patient, it is they who should make the final decision on what treatment to proceed with.
