These are the questions people usually want answered before booking a dental exam or checkup in Roma Sur: whether this is the right starting point, what changes between exam tiers, when X-rays help, how long the visit takes, and when discomfort sounds urgent instead of routine.
Yes. This dental exam is a good starting point if you want a first appointment, routine checkup, second opinion, or help understanding whether cleaning, fillings, crowns, implants, or a root canal actually make sense next.
Basic (699 MXN) starts with the clinical exam and plan. Advanced (1,999 MXN) adds focused imaging and clinical photos. Advanced+ (4,499 MXN) adds panoramic and 3D imaging for broader planning.
No. Dental X-rays or 3D scans are only recommended when they help answer the clinical question. Recent usable X-rays may already be enough. Broader imaging usually matters more for implants, surgery, or more complex diagnosis.
As a quick guide, Basic often lands around 20-30 minutes, Advanced around 30-45 minutes, and Advanced+ around 45-60 minutes. The final timing still depends on history, findings, and whether you already bring usable records.
Often yes, if your gums and the schedule allow it. We still check first, because some mouths fit a routine cleaning, some need periodontal planning, and some are better examined before treatment starts.
If you have swelling, severe pain, trauma, or a broken tooth that already sounds urgent, use our dental emergency care for the fastest route into care. If the discomfort feels mild or unclear, a diagnostic exam is still a reasonable first step.
A dental exam works best as the entry point when you are still making a decision. These are the situations where it usually makes sense to start here first.
Routine checkup
This is the logical visit if you simply want to know where your teeth, gums, and bite stand before something turns into a bigger problem.
Good fit if:
You have not had a recent checkup
You want to get preventive care back on track
You prefer a diagnostic visit before treatment starts
Good fit for an exam Basic is often enough here.
Unclear symptom
An exam helps when there is sensitivity, an intermittent annoyance, a strange bite feeling, or a concern that still does not point clearly to one treatment.
Good fit if:
You do not know if this is cleaning, filling, crown, or root canal territory
You want the diagnosis before committing
You care about understanding the cause, not just the treatment name
Good fit for an exam Advanced is often useful here.
Second opinion
This is also a good visit if you have already been told you need treatment and want a fresh evaluation with a calmer explanation and imaging only when it adds value.
Good fit if:
You are bringing prior X-rays or a treatment quote
You want to compare scope and timing
You want a clearer explanation before deciding
Good fit for an exam Best when you can bring prior images.
Before another treatment
A dental exam also works if you already know which treatment you are considering, but still need to confirm whether it truly applies to your case and how much imaging is useful first.
Good fit if:
You want the right order of care
You do not want to jump into the wrong treatment
You want to know whether the case is simple or broader
Good fit for an exam A useful first step when planning matters.
Important: Not every visit needs the broadest imaging tier. If the story already sounds urgent, we point you toward emergency care quickly instead of treating it like a routine checkup.
Here you can compare the three real dental exam tiers: Basic, Advanced, and Advanced+. The goal is to explain what changes between them and confirm which level genuinely makes sense for your checkup, second opinion, or treatment-planning visit.

Choose your tier
Three visit levels
Basic
699 MXN
Clinical baseline for routine checkups, straightforward first visits, and shorter second opinions.
History review and clinical dental exam
Gum check and bite check
Can use recent outside records
If they still answer the clinical question, we avoid repeating imaging without reason.
Best for
Routine checkups, a straightforward first visit, or a second opinion that still does not justify more imaging.
Advanced
Popular1,999 MXN
Adds photos and focused imaging when the visual check alone is no longer enough.
Everything in Basic
Clinical photos
Helpful when the explanation needs clearer documentation.
Focused X-ray
For one tooth or one localized area when that is the real question.
Best for
Cases where a tooth, symptom, previous dental work, or second opinion needs clearer documentation before deciding.
Advanced+
4,499 MXN
Opens panoramic and 3D imaging when the case moves into implants, surgery, or broader restorative planning.
Everything in Advanced
Panoramic X-ray
Adds a broader view of teeth, roots, and surrounding structures.
3D scan
Used when bone, surgery, or implant planning genuinely needs it.
Best for
Broader planning, implants, surgery, or decisions that genuinely need a fuller view before treatment starts.
Important
We do not start with the broadest exam by default. If you already have recent X-rays or scans that still answer the clinical question, we review those first before repeating imaging or moving up a tier without a reason.
The visit does not push everyone into the same treatment. These are the most common paths once the diagnosis is clear enough to decide the real next step.
No immediate treatment
If your teeth, gums, and bite look stable, the useful outcome can simply be confirming that nothing needs treatment right now.
These practical details help before you book a dental exam or arrive for your visit in Roma Sur.
Bring records
Periapicals, panoramic images, CBCT, prior estimates, or notes from another dentist can help us avoid repeating imaging that still does the job.
If usable we review them
Right route
A dental exam works well as the first filter, but those signs usually justify a faster route than a routine checkup.
Same day
It depends on what the exam shows, the condition of your gums, and the schedule. If the visit confirms that you mainly need preventive maintenance, it often fits.
Likelihood often yes
Timing
Timing also changes if you already bring useful records or if the exam shows that the case needs a fuller explanation.
minutes
Here is how the visit works at our Roma Sur clinic. We start by understanding what you need, review your teeth, gums, and bite, use imaging only when it adds real value, and end with a clear plan instead of pressure to treat.
Book by form or WhatsApp and tell us whether you want a dental checkup, first visit, second opinion, or evaluation because something feels off.
If you already have X-rays, scans, or a prior treatment quote, bring them. That helps us decide whether Basic is enough or whether the visit needs a fuller diagnostic level.
We start by checking your teeth, gums, and bite. If the clinical assessment alone does not answer the question well enough, we add the imaging that actually makes sense for your case.
We review photos or imaging with you, answer questions, and explain what treatment sounds logical, what can wait, and what is better handled sooner. Pricing is confirmed clearly in MXN, with USD planning estimates available when helpful.
If a routine cleaning or a simple treatment can fit the same day and it makes clinical sense, we talk it through. If not, you still leave with a clear plan and honest expectations about the next step.
A dental exam starts with general dentistry and diagnosis first. If the findings shift the conversation toward gum care, endodontics, or broader restorative planning, we explain why and bring in the right doctor.
Registered nurse and patient experience lead helping with messages, scheduling, and follow-up.
General dentist focused on first visits, preventive exams, and the kind of clear explanations that help patients know what comes next before treatment starts.
A strong first stop for routine checkups, second opinions, and diagnostic decisions that do not clearly point to one treatment yet.
Steps in when the exam suggests bleeding, inflammation, or periodontal findings that may change whether routine cleaning is enough or a deeper evaluation is smarter.
Helps when the diagnosis starts pointing more toward nerve pain, infection, or persistent symptoms than a routine checkup.
Joins when the exam turns into broader prosthodontic or restorative planning involving crowns, prosthetics, implants, or staged esthetic care.

Open in Google MapsThis FAQ starts with the real decision questions first: whether this is the right page when you do not know the treatment yet, when a basic visit is enough, when imaging changes the scope, and what happens next if the findings point somewhere else.
Yes. This page is built for exactly that starting point: a routine checkup, first visit, second opinion, or a symptom that does not clearly point yet to cleaning, fillings, crowns, implants, or a root canal. The appointment is there to sort the case before anyone promises a treatment.
Many maintenance visits, routine checkups, mild concerns, or straightforward second opinions start well with the basic tier. If the findings show that the diagnosis needs more imaging, more documentation, or broader planning, we explain that before moving the visit into a different tier.
No. X-rays, photos, or broader imaging are only recommended when they answer the clinical question. Imaging becomes more useful when there is pain, previous dental work, deeper decay, bone or gum concerns, uncertainty around a crown, implant, or root canal, or when a second opinion needs better documentation. We do not promise the same imaging for every case.
The Basic exam is currently 699 MXN, the Advanced exam is 1,999 MXN, and the Advanced+ exam is 4,499 MXN. USD estimates are available as planning references. The difference is not just time. It is how much diagnosis, documentation, and imaging are actually needed to answer your case well. We confirm the right tier with you instead of assuming every visit needs the largest scope.
No. The dental exam price covers the diagnostic visit and treatment plan for that tier. Additional X-rays, CBCT, cleaning, fillings, emergency care, medications, root canal treatment, crowns, extractions, implants, night guards, whitening, and treatment on other teeth are quoted separately when needed.
A dental exam usually takes 20 to 60 minutes, depending on the tier. Basic often lands around 20 to 30 minutes, Advanced around 30 to 45 minutes, and Advanced+ around 45 to 60 minutes. The exact visit still depends on history, findings, and whether recent usable records already answer part of the question.
Often yes. A dental exam and cleaning can happen the same day when the assessment confirms that routine cleaning is the correct next step and there is enough time in the schedule. If the gums are more inflamed, there is pain, or the diagnosis points elsewhere, we explain why it is better not to assume every visit ends the same way.
You leave with a clearer diagnosis and, when appropriate, a written plan that separates what is necessary, what is optional, and what order makes the most sense. Some simpler next steps can happen the same day when it is clinically appropriate and the schedule allows. Other cases need extra imaging, another visit, or a different doctor before treatment starts.
Yes. A dental exam is a practical way to get a second opinion before committing to crowns, implants, a root canal, or another treatment. It helps review whether a previous plan still makes sense, whether the proposed scope seems larger than necessary, or whether the diagnosis itself should be confirmed first.
Yes. Bring recent X-rays, photos, estimates, or records from another dentist. If they still answer the clinical question, we use them instead of repeating imaging automatically. If they are no longer enough to make a safe decision, we explain what information is missing.
If there is visible swelling, fever, pain that is keeping you awake, recent trauma, or major trouble biting, it is better to message us as an urgent case instead of treating it like a standard checkup.
The fastest route is usually WhatsApp or contact us .
Yes. We support patients in English and Spanish, and this exam works well as the starting point when you still do not know whether the real next step is cleaning, a filling, a crown, an implant, or something else.
