What it is
A routine visit that checks every tooth, your gums and your bite, screens the soft tissues of the mouth, and removes plaque and tartar that brushing cannot reach. It is the visit that keeps small problems small.
What happens, step by step
01
Short chat about any changes, worries or sensitivity since your last visit.
02
Examination of teeth, gums and soft tissues, with X-rays only if they are due.
03
Scale and polish with your hygienist, plus brushing and flossing tips for your mouth.
04
Summary of findings and a reminder booked for your next visit.
Aftercare
You can eat and drink straight away. Gums may feel slightly tender for a day after a thorough clean; a soft brush and warm salt water help.
Common questions
How often should I come?
Most adults come every six to twelve months. We suggest an interval based on your gums and history, not a fixed rule.
Will I need X-rays every time?
Can I book the dentist and hygienist together?
General information only. Your dentist will explain what applies to you at your consultation.
Other treatments
Treatments are often combined in one plan. These are the ones patients ask about most.
