Routine dental check ups are designed for patients we see regularly and are usually shorter and simpler, while still being thorough.
We begin with a brief discussion to check in on any concerns and ensure nothing has changed since your last visit.
We then complete an examination of your teeth, gums, and bite. Because we are monitoring your oral health over time, clinical photographs updated at no charge if there is something important to show or a specific area we wish to track.
If required, we take small in the mouth x rays. These are recommended when existing x rays are more than two years old, or if there is a particular concern we need to assess more closely.
Your teeth are professionally cleaned, and fluoride is applied to help protect against decay.
We finish by reviewing our findings with you, answering any questions, and discussing next steps if needed. If treatment is required or desired, a written quote is provided for you to take home.
As always, there is no pressure to proceed with treatment. Our role is to support informed decisions and ongoing oral health.
