How often should I have a dental check-up?

Most patients benefit from a check-up every six months, although some people may need to visit more or less frequently depending on their oral health. Your dentist will recommend the most appropriate interval for you.

Yes. If your dentist feels that X-rays are clinically necessary during your examination, they're included at no additional cost.

What happens during my first appointment?

We'll discuss your dental and medical history before carrying out a comprehensive examination of your teeth, gums and mouth. We'll explain everything we find and answer any questions you may have before discussing any treatment recommendations.

What if I haven't seen a dentist for years?

Don't worry. We see many patients who haven't visited a dentist in a long time. Our team will never judge you — we're simply here to help you get your oral health back on track.

Do you check for mouth cancer?

Yes. Every routine dental examination includes an oral cancer screening as part of your assessment. Detecting changes early can make a significant difference.

Will you pressure me into treatment?

Absolutely not. We'll explain any problems we find, discuss your options and answer your questions, allowing you to make an informed decision in your own time.

Overview — 001

Small problems are easier, quicker and less expensive to treat when they're found early.

A dental check-up is about far more than looking for cavities. We'll carefully examine your teeth, gums, existing dental work and overall oral health, checking for early signs of decay, gum disease, tooth wear and other conditions that could affect your smile. If X-rays are clinically required, we'll take them as part of your examination at no additional charge.
