Check Up And Clean
We carry out a thorough examination of your mouth and surrounding areas, checking for any damage or infection of teeth, gums and soft tissues. With your consent we take photographs and x rays to aid us in this. This appointment is completed with a professional scale and polish to remove damaging stain and tartar, leaving your mouth feeling clean and fresh and looking good. This is followed by an application of high concentrate fluoride to strengthen your teeth and even reverse very early decay.
We will give you tips on cleaning, diet and oral care to ensure your ongoing dental health. After all, what you do at home every day determines how much time you spend in our chair.
If further treatment is needed, you and your dentist will then discuss your options, ensuring you receive the treatment you need and want. We will provide you with written estimates to ensure clarity and satisfaction. We want you to be part of the planning process and our friendly team will give you all the information needed to ensure you receive the treatment that suits you. Our goal is to ensure you leave our practice happy and smiling.

Regular dental check-ups and professional cleans are one of the most important steps in preventing tooth decay, gum disease, and future dental problems.

With your consent, we will take photographs and dental X-rays to gain a clearer understanding of your oral health and ensure accurate diagnosis.
