Your First Visit
Your first appointment is an opportunity for us to get to know you and understand your dental health goals. We believe that successful treatment begins with careful listening, a thorough examination, and open communication.
During your first visit, you can expect:
- A review of your medical and dental history
- A discussion about any concerns or symptoms you’re experiencing
- A comprehensive examination of your teeth, gums, jaw joints, and bite
- Digital X-rays and diagnostic imaging, when needed
- n evaluation for cavities, gum disease, tooth wear, and oral cancer
- Time to discuss treatment options and ask questions
Rather than focusing on a single problem, we evaluate your entire oral health. This comprehensive approach allows us to identify concerns early and develop a treatment plan that supports both the health and function of your smile.
Advanced Diagnostics for Better Care
Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of excellent dentistry. At Wayne Hills Dental, we use modern digital imaging technology to evaluate your oral health with exceptional precision while minimizing radiation exposure.
Digital X-rays provide detailed images that help us detect problems that cannot be seen during a visual examination alone. They allow our dentists to identify issues such as:
Advanced Diagnostics for Better Care
Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of excellent dentistry. At Wayne Hills Dental, we use modern digital imaging technology to evaluate your oral health with exceptional precision while minimizing radiation exposure.
Digital X-rays provide detailed images that help us detect problems that cannot be seen during a visual examination alone. They allow our dentists to identify issues such as:
- Tooth decay between teeth
- Hidden infections
- Bone loss from periodontal disease
- Cracked or damaged teeth
- Impacted teeth
- Changes around existing dental restorations
- Jawbone conditions
Digital images are available immediately, allowing your dentist to review them with you during your appointment. Seeing your dental health firsthand helps you better understand your diagnosis and recommended treatment options.
Comprehensive Care for Complex Dental Needs
Many adults delay dental treatment because they have several concerns affecting their smile. Missing teeth, worn enamel, broken restorations, bite problems, and gum disease often occur together and require careful planning.
At Wayne Hills Dental, we specialize in treating patients with complex dental needs. Rather than treating one tooth at a time, we evaluate how your teeth, gums, bite, jaw joints, and overall oral health work together.
Dr. Khater’s advanced prosthodontic training allows her to restore smiles affected by extensive damage, tooth loss, severe wear, or failing dental work. Whether treatment involves crowns, bridges, implant restorations, dentures, or full-mouth rehabilitation, every treatment plan is customized to restore comfort, function, and confidence.
Advanced TMJ and Bite Evaluation
Jaw pain, headaches, facial discomfort, clicking jaws, and difficulty chewing may all be signs of a temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder or problems with your bite.
Dr. Hamzah Matalkah has completed advanced education through The Dawson Academy, an internationally respected organization dedicated to comprehensive dentistry, occlusion (bite alignment), and TMJ diagnosis. His training helps him identify how bite problems can contribute to jaw discomfort, excessive tooth wear, muscle pain, and other functional issues.
When appropriate, TMJ evaluations include a careful assessment of your jaw joints, bite relationship, muscle function, and dental health. Treatment recommendations are tailored to your individual needs to improve comfort, restore proper function, and protect your long-term oral health.
Personalized Dentistry Under One Roof
Having two dentists with advanced training allows Wayne Hills Dental to provide truly comprehensive care.
Dr. Khater and Dr. Matalkah collaborate on diagnosis and treatment planning, ensuring that patients benefit from multiple professional perspectives. This team-based approach is especially valuable for patients with complex restorative needs, bite concerns, TMJ disorders, or multiple dental problems that require coordinated care.
Instead of visiting several specialists, many patients can receive comprehensive treatment in a single familiar office with a team that understands their dental history and long-term goals.
Building Healthy Smiles for Every Stage of Life
Our practice welcomes patients of all ages, from children receiving preventive care to adults seeking advanced restorative treatment. We believe that education, prevention, and personalized treatment are the keys to lifelong oral health.
Whether your goal is to maintain a healthy smile, replace missing teeth, relieve TMJ pain, or rebuild your entire smile, our team is committed to helping you achieve lasting results in a comfortable, supportive environment.
At Wayne Hills Dental, we don’t just treat teeth—we build lasting relationships with our patients while providing comprehensive dental care that supports your health, confidence, and quality of life.
