Meet Port Lavaca’s Gentle Family Dental Team

At Abka Dental, we believe that a healthy smile starts with routine dental checkups. Our team of experienced professionals is dedicated to providing thorough, gentle cleanings and examinations to ensure your teeth and gums stay healthy. Schedule your next checkup today and take the first step towards a lifetime of dental wellness.

Why Dental Check-Ups Matter

Your mouth changes over time, often without obvious symptoms. Small issues can quietly turn into painful or expensive problems if left unchecked.

During your dental exam, our team checks for:

  • Early signs of cavities and decay
  • Gum inflammation or bleeding
  • Tooth wear, cracks, or damage
  • Oral infections or abscesses
  • Bite or jaw concerns
  • Oral cancer screening
  • Old fillings or restorations that may be failing

Most dental problems begin painlessly.
A routine check-up allows us to address concerns early, before they become disruptive, uncomfortable, or costly.

“It’s Been Years Since My Last Check-Up…”

You are not alone, and you are absolutely welcome here.

At Abka Dental, we never judge or criticise. We focus on solutions, comfort, and helping you move forward at your pace.

Many of our patients tell us:

  • “I was embarrassed to come in.”
  • “I was scared of what they might find.”
  • “I didn’t have insurance for a long time.”

We hear this every day, and our role is to make returning to dental care feel safe, respectful, and manageable.

What’s Included in Your Dental Check-Up

Comprehensive Oral Exam
 Evaluation of teeth, gums, bite, jaw, and soft tissues
Digital X-Rays (If Needed)
Low-radiation imaging to detect issues not visible during a visual exam
Oral Cancer Screening
 Quick, gentle, and included in your visit
Personalised Treatment Recommendations
 Clear explanations with no pressure or upselling
Preventive Guidance
Practical tips to help you maintain your oral health at home

Why Early Detection Is So Important

Dental problems tend to become more expensive the longer they go untreated.
A small cavity today costs far less than a root canal or extraction later.

Routine check-ups help prevent:

  • Painful infections
  • Emergency dental visits
  • Tooth loss
  • Complex restorative treatments
  • Advanced gum disease

Many dental emergencies could be avoided with consistent preventive care.
