Providing advanced dental care in a modern & elevated environment

At your first dental check up, you can expect the following:

• A discussion of your dental and medical history, and identification of any concerns you have regarding your dental health. This is followed by a comprehensive examination of your mouth, jaw teeth and gums to detect any potential dental issues such as decay, gum disease, tooth wear, joint issues and other problems.
• Oral cancer screening: The dentist will check your mouth for any signs of oral cancer.
• X-rays: The dentist may take radiographs of your teeth and jaw to get a more detailed view of any potential dental issues.
• Cleaning: The dentist will then discuss cleaning your teeth with special equipment to remove any staining or tartar and plaque build up.
• Personalised advice and guidance: The dentist will provide you with personalised advice on how you can improve your oral hygiene routine and maintain good oral health.
• If the dentist has identified any problems that require attention, treatments that may benefit your oral health and cosmetic appearance, a treatment plan will be created together.  

In summary, your first dental check up is an opportunity to evaluate your dental health, identify any potential problems, and get started on a path towards good oral health.
