Often offered at regular teeth cleaning appointments, comprehensive exams let Dr. Sean Melton evaluate the teeth, gums, arch alignment, temporomandibular joints, and further oral features and can be the best path to early detection and management of dental issues. To maintain the wellness and look of your smile, arrange a regular oral examination at our Helena, MT office as soon as possible.

Melton Dental Reviews
Sean is very good, and he surrounds himself with classy assistants. He will work with his clients on challenging needs and is totally fair.
My first visit and what a great experience; despite the complexity of enhancing my smile and being in the chair 2 1/2 hours! Dr Melton snd his staff are top shelf. Professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. I’ll post before and after photos when my dental work is complete.
This was the best customer service I have ever had! My son was getting senior pictures this weekend and was supposed to get teeth whitened Friday. A staff member got sick so need to reschedule, but Dr. Melton called a staff member (Lenny (who was amazing)) see if there was anyway someone could come in on Saturday. They came in on their day off to whiten my sons' teeth! She was so kind, excellent customer service, made us feel welcome! We will be back, and I would highly recommend them to anyone! Thank you, Melton Dental!
I have a great experience every time I go to my appointments - Dr. Melton is genuine and understanding, his staff is also very nice and welcoming. I would highly recommend Melton Dental to anyone in town!
Everyone is so great and friendly. Would definitely recommend!
