What Happens at a Dental Check up
A check up is a chance for us to look closely at your teeth and gums. It is not only about spotting problems. It is about helping you avoid them.
Here is what usually happens:
- We ask a few questions about your teeth and general health
- We check your teeth, gums, tongue and mouth
- We look for signs of decay, gum problems or anything unusual
- We give you advice that is specific to your mouth
- If needed, we explain next steps or book you in for a clean
Most check ups take around fifteen to thirty minutes.
Why Regular Check ups Matter
Even if your teeth feel fine, there could be issues developing that you do not notice right away. A regular check up helps us catch things early and prevent more serious problems.
It can:
- Save you money by avoiding costly treatment
- Protect your natural teeth for longer
- Keep your gums strong and healthy
- Spot infections or damage early
- Help you feel more confident about your smile
We usually recommend coming in every six months, but it depends on your needs.
Who Should Book a Check up
- Adults who have not seen a dentist in a while
- Families looking for a regular dental home
- Anyone with bleeding gums or sensitive teeth
- Patients with dental work that needs reviewing
