Dental Check-up
Clear information, careful assessment and a treatment plan designed around your comfort and long-term oral health.
Dental Check-up: what to know
A check-up reviews teeth, gums, bite and mouth tissues alongside your symptoms, medical history and home care. X-rays are taken when clinically indicated.
When might it be needed?
Routine review, a new symptom, a broken restoration or before planning cosmetic care.
The choice follows an examination. Symptoms alone cannot identify the right treatment.

The dentist assesses decay and gum risk and uses additional tests or imaging only when indicated.

Findings, prevention advice, any treatment options and a suitable review interval are discussed.

Frequently asked questions
What if I develop pain before my review date?
Arrange an earlier assessment for pain, swelling, injury or a broken tooth instead of waiting for a routine check-up.
Can I book without knowing the treatment?
Yes. Choose Consultation / Not sure. An examination helps identify suitable options.
What happens during a dental check-up?
We discuss concerns and medical history, examine teeth, gums and mouth, and explain findings and any recommended care.
Do I need an X-ray at every visit?
No. Imaging is selected when it is expected to help diagnosis or treatment planning.
Should I attend if nothing hurts?
Yes. Decay and gum disease can develop without obvious pain; review intervals depend on your risk.
Will treatment start at the same appointment?
That depends on the findings, available time and your consent. We explain options and an estimate before planned treatment.
What should I bring?
Bring a medication list, relevant medical information and previous dental records or X-rays if available.
Is cleaning included in every check-up?
An examination and cleaning are different services. We explain whether cleaning is needed and its cost.
