Regular check-ups are the foundation of good oral health. They let us spot problems such as decay or gum disease early, when treatment is simpler, more comfortable and less costly. We usually recommend an examination around every six months, but we'll always tailor your recall interval to your individual needs.
At each examination we carefully check your teeth, gums and the soft tissues of your mouth, and screen for early signs of problems. We'll explain anything we find in plain language and agree a clear plan with you before any treatment goes ahead.
Our hygienists play a key role in keeping your smile healthy. A hygiene visit includes a thorough professional clean, removing the plaque and hardened tartar that everyday brushing can't reach, followed by a polish and practical, personalised advice for looking after your teeth at home.
Whether you've attended regularly for years or it's been a while since your last visit, you'll find a warm welcome and a gentle, judgement-free approach. New patients are always welcome.
