How often should I get a check-up?

To look after your teeth and keep your smile at its best, we recommend a dental check-up at least once a year. It’s also a good idea to have a dental hygiene examination with our hygienist at the same time.
As well as keeping your teeth healthy, a regular check-up can help save you money in the long run by catching problems early on.

Dental Checkup

A dental check-up with us includes a thorough check of all of your teeth, your gums and an x-ray to see if there are any problems. During your check-up, we’ll ask you about any previous dental work and check-in on how your dental health is going since your last check-up. X-rays will help us examine parts of your teeth that we can’t see by eye. Have a read of our Dental X-Rays page to know more.
After your check-up is done, we’ll tell you if any work is needed to keep your smile healthy. Your dentist will explain what needs to be done and how much it will cost. This means you
won’t have any surprises.

Dental Hygiene Examination

After your check-up, we recommend you see one of our specialised hygienists. A dental hygiene examination is good in many ways. Our hygienist will check and record your gum health, plus they scale and clean your teeth thoroughly. They will teach you how to clean and maintain your teeth well after the dental hygienist examination.

An hygienist appointment normally takes 45 minutes.

If you think you might be overdue for a dental check-up, get in touch with Team Dental to book an appointment with our dentists and hygienists.
If you think you might be due for a check-up talk to Team Dental today, we make it easy.
