Our Easy Dental Checkup and Clean Process
Comprehensive Dental Examination: When you visit us for a checkup, we will assess your dental history and perform a comprehensive examination.
You can discuss any dental issues you might have, such as bleeding gums or tooth sensitivity. If any treatment is required, we provide you with a detailed written treatment plan.
Scale and Clean: Our skilled dentists use an ultrasonic scaler that sprays a fine mist of water to remove plaque and tartar buildup on your teeth.
This procedure is extremely comfortable and virtually pain-free. Any stubborn tartar remains are gently scraped away with special hand-held tools.
Post-Cleaning Examination: After scaling and cleaning, a further examination reveals the true state of your teeth and gums.
If we detect any cavities, tooth discolouration, or signs of gum disease, we will discuss the most appropriate treatment options with you.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I get a dental checkup and cleaning?
We recommended having a dental checkup and cleaning every six months.
Regular visits help maintain oral health, prevent cavities, and catch any potential issues early.
Your dentist might suggest a different schedule based on your individual needs and oral health condition.
Are dental cleans painful?
Most dental cleanings are not painful, though you may experience some discomfort or sensitivity, especially if you have gum disease or sensitive teeth.
Communicate any pain or discomfort to your dentist or hygienist, and they can adjust their technique or use numbing agents to make you feel more comfortable.
Why are regular dental checkups important?
Regular dental checkups and cleanings are important for maintaining good oral health.
They help prevent cavities, gum disease, and other dental problems by removing plaque and tartar that cannot be eliminated by regular brushing and flossing.
Early detection of problems allows for less invasive and more cost-effective treatments.
