dental checkups
Patients are encouraged to go for a basic dental check-up, once every six months.
Importance of Dental Checkups
Going for a regular dental check-up once every 6 – 8 months is the first step to maintaining good oral health. A typical dental check-up take about 30 – 45 minutes to complete, during which, your dentist will access your oral health and highlight any existing or potential oral health issues that you may have. Most patients will undergo a session of scaling & polishing during their dental checkups, removing any plaque and tartar that may have accumulated on the surface of teeth.
The fees for dental checkups can usually be covered by most medical insurance policy plans; do check with your insurance provider to see if you’ve got any dental coverage.
You may receive different services during your visit, depending on your oral health status however during your initial dental check-up you can generally expect:
Medical History Review
Provide your dentist information regarding your diet and all the medicines you are using since they may have an effect on your oral health and the treatment your dentist will recommend.
Oral Health Analysis
Our dentists will then conduct a visual examination of your gum tissue and a visual scan for oral cancer. Then we’ll discuss issues about your mouth, teeth, gums and oral health in general that you might be worried about.
OPG X-Ray Imaging
In certain patients, there will be a need to take an OPG X-Ray. This is usually to check on wisdom teeth that have not fully erupted from the gum or for patients who are missing teeth.
Treatment Planning
After the visual examination of your oral health, our dentist will create a customised treatment plan that’s tailored to your need which recommends the correct treatment to address your oral health needs and continued long-term dental care.
After Check-Up
After your initial dental check-up, your dentist will recommend a treatment plan where necessary, which is created to specifically address all your dental needs. This treatment plan will include future follow-up hygiene appointments.
