Catch Issues Early

Early detection and prevention are crucial in managing your oral health effectively.

Cavity Detection:
Cavities can often go unnoticed until you experience a toothache. Our routine examinations help us catch small cavities early on, making treatment simpler and less invasive.

Gum Disease Awareness:
Gum disease can progress without noticeable symptoms until it reaches an advanced stage. Regular visits allow us to detect early signs of gum disease, preventing serious complications down the line.

Oral Cancer Screening:
Subtle symptoms of oral cancer, like unnoticed bumps or spots, can develop over time. Regular dental check-ups include screenings that help identify these issues early, allowing for timely treatment and improved outcomes.

What to Expect During Your Visit

When you come in for your check-up, we’ll start by chatting with you about your overall health, lifestyle, and any concerns you may have had since your last visit.

We’ll conduct a thorough examination, which includes:

During the examination, we’ll look for signs such as:
Tenderness or swelling in your gums
Discoloration or holes in your teeth
Pain when biting
Loose or wobbly teeth
Bad breath
Persistent mouth ulcers or sores
Unusual lumps or bumps in your mouth
Swelling around the jaws
Clicking joints around the jawbone
Recurring headaches

If we notice any symptoms that require further investigation, we may recommend x-rays or digital scans. We’ll guide you through your treatment options and the next steps to ensure your comfort and understanding.

Follow-Up Care

It is extremely important for the long term success of any dental treatment that your teeth and gums are maintained regularly to a high level. We would also recommend that you brush and floss your teeth twice daily, have annual check ups and a hygiene visit every 6 months.

After your implant treatment is completed we offer a free of charge maintenance programme with our oral health educators.

Our implant maintenance programme consists of a 3 month post treatment appointment, 6 month post treatment appointment and annual reviews for 5 years post treatment completion. At these appointments we will assess and review the bone levels around your implants, check your gum health and provide oral health and cleaning advice.
