Health Check

What happens during your dental health check?

  • We discuss how you feel about the health of your teeth and gums
  • We listen to any problems or concerns you may have
  • We check for any changes in your medical condition (as this could affect the health of your mouth)
  • We check:-
    • that your teeth are biting correctly
    • the health of your teeth
    • the condition of your fillings/crowns, etc.
    • the health of your tongue, lips, cheeks and the skin inside your mouth
    • the health of your gums
    • the presence of plaque on your teeth
    • under, behind and inside your teeth (with x-rays, where and when appropriate)
  • We assess the health of the bone that holds your teeth in place

We discuss our findings and offer advice about these and any other concerns you may have.
