Dental Check-Up
Visiting your dentist on a regular basis should be a vital part of your oral hygiene routine. Personal dental care has its limits, and so professional cleaning is required to remove tartar, stains and bacteria from hard-to-reach places.
What is a Dental Check-Up?
What is a Dental Check-Up?
A thorough cleaning would include procedures such as scaling and polishing, airflow stain removal, and topical fluoride application.
Dental check-ups are also a way to spot early signs of diseases and to address the problem before the issue becomes serious.
Why Are Regular Dental Check-Ups Important?
Early Detection
Regular dental check-ups allow your dentist to spot signs of any dental problems early that you may have ahead of time (even the silent ones!) and nip it in its bud. Leave these to deteriorate, and you may get a toothache, need costly and invasive dental treatment (e.g., a root canal treatment, extraction, or dental implants, etc.), or even worse, risk losing your natural teeth unnecessarily.
It is well proven that patients who regularly have dental check-ups and visit a dentist every six months are far less likely to suffer from dental disease than patients who attend sporadically or solely during dental emergencies.
Maintenance
At your dental check-up, your dentist or hygienist will give your teeth and gums their required general maintenance (just like servicing your car!) to help prevent gum disease and tooth decay. This can include some or all of the following:
- Scaling and Polishing, to remove tartar
- Airflow Stain Removal, to remove stains
- Topical Fluoride, to protect your teeth against decay
Be ready to confidently emerge from your dental clinic showing off your pearly white smile.
Oral Health Education
Our dental professionals will also take you on an educational journey about adopting contemporary oral health habits (such as brushing and flossing daily) that will empower you to take good care of your teeth, gums, and mouth. Many dental problems or diseases are, in fact, 100% preventable with good self-care, so be prepared to start brushing and flossing like a champion!
