Check Up and Clean
Regular dental checkups and cleans are essential for maintaining optimal oral health. During a checkup, our team will thoroughly examine your teeth, gums, and overall oral health to detect early signs of cavities, gum disease, or other concerns. A professional clean removes plaque and tartar buildup, leaving your teeth feeling fresh and helping to prevent future dental issues.
At our practice, we use AIRFLOW® technology from Switzerland to gently remove biofilm, plaque and surface staining. AIRFLOW® combines a gentle stream of warm water, air and fine powder particles to clean your teeth and reach areas that can be difficult to clean with traditional instruments, giving you a far superior clean with minimal pain and leaving your teeth feeling smooth and fresh.
We recommend a dental check-up and professional clean every six months to help maintain your oral health and prevent future dental problems. These routine visits are key to preserving your smile for years to come.
What does a general dental check-up involve?
Comprehensive
Oral Examination
The dentist will perform a checkup of your overall oral health during every visit. This includes a detailed inspection of your teeth, gums, and soft tissues to detect any signs of cavities, gum disease, or other dental issues. We also provide oral cancer screening with specialised equipment. The exam may also involve reviewing your medical history to identify any factors that could affect your oral health, ensuring a holistic assessment of your dental well-being.
Thorough Dental
Scale and Polish
This professional cleaning procedure effectively removes plaque, tartar, and surface stains from your teeth that cannot be removed by brushing and flossing alone. This promotes good oral hygiene, reducing the risk of gum disease and cavities, and leaving you feeling fresh and clean.
Dental Radiographs
(when needed)
Dental radiographs, or X-rays, are often used to gain a clearer view of your oral health beneath the surface. When necessary, your dentist may recommend X-rays to detect hidden issues like cavities between teeth, bone loss, or impacted teeth. These images are crucial for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning to promote oral health.
