Regular dental check-ups are the foundation of good oral health. Our thorough examinations allow us to detect potential problems early, when they're easiest and least expensive to treat, helping you maintain a healthy smile for life.
Our comprehensive check-ups include a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and mouth, an oral cancer screening, assessment of your bite and jaw, review of any existing dental work, and x-rays when clinically necessary. We also discuss your oral hygiene routine and any concerns you may have.
Many dental problems develop silently without obvious symptoms until they become serious. Regular check-ups allow us to catch issues like cavities, gum disease, and oral cancer in their earliest stages, when treatment is simplest and most effective.
We typically recommend check-ups every six months, but this can vary based on your individual needs. Some patients with excellent oral health may need less frequent visits, while those with higher risk factors may benefit from more regular appointments.
To get the most from your check-up, let us know about any changes in your health or medications, any dental concerns or symptoms you've noticed, and any cosmetic improvements you're considering. This helps us provide the most personalised care possible.
