What Happens During a Dental Check-Up?
During your appointment, your dentist will examine your teeth, gums and surrounding tissues, checking for signs of decay, gum disease and other oral health concerns. Where appropriate, digital X-rays may be recommended to assess areas that cannot be seen during a visual examination.
Regular check-ups allow us to identify concerns early and recommend treatment before problems become more complex.
