Dental Check-up
Keep small issues small. A dental check-up finds problems early, protects your smile, and saves time and money later — plain and simple.
What We Do During a Check-up
Every check-up follows a thorough and structured process to ensure your oral health is protected from every angle.
Complete Examination & Cleaning
Your appointment includes a comprehensive review of your oral health, identifying early warning signs before they become serious problems, and pairs perfectly with a professional cleaning from our dental hygienist.
- Full visual exam —Teeth, gums, tongue and soft tissues are inspected for decay, inflammation or abnormalities.
- Periodontal screening —Gum pockets and bleeding are measured to catch gum disease early.
- Bite & wear check —We assess how your teeth meet and whether grinding or misalignment is damaging them.
- Targeted X-rays —Used only if they’ll change the treatment plan (hidden decay, root issues, bone levels).
- Professional cleaning —Scaling to remove tartar, polishing to remove stains, and fluoride if useful.
- Oral cancer screen —A quick, routine check of soft tissues for anything suspicious.
Personalised Plan & Frequency
We don’t just treat — we guide. Every visit ends with clear next steps tailored to your situation.
- Routine visits —Every 6 months for most people as part of a preventive schedule.
- High-risk patients —Every 3–4 months if you have gum disease, frequent cavities, diabetes, smoke, or wear orthodontics.
- Symptoms —Come immediately if you experience pain, swelling, bleeding, loose teeth, or sudden sensitivity.
Why Regular Check-ups Matter
Prevention is always easier and more affordable than emergency dental treatment.
- Detects cavities, gum disease and other issues before they become painful or costly.
- Keeps restorations (fillings, crowns, implants) in check so they last longer.
- Protects overall health — oral problems are linked to systemic conditions like diabetes and heart disease.
- Reinforces good home care with personalised coaching.
Quick Home-Care Checklist
Simple daily habits make the biggest difference.
- Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste.
- Clean between teeth daily (floss or interdental brushes).
- Cut down on sugary snacks and acidic drinks.
- Tell us about changes in health, medications, or pregnancy.
