What the treatment does

A dental check-up assesses your teeth, gums and other tissues in the mouth. Professional cleaning may be recommended to remove deposits that brushing cannot remove. The appointment and recall interval should suit your individual needs.

Your examination comes first. The findings determine whether this approach fits your teeth, health and goals.

From assessment to aftercare

Review your health

Discuss symptoms, medical history and your current oral care routine.

Examine and clean

Your dentist checks your teeth and gums and recommends cleaning or further assessment where needed.

Plan prevention

Get advice on cleaning at home and a suitable interval for the next review.

Risks, limitations & alternatives

Some people experience temporary sensitivity or gum tenderness after cleaning. Active gum disease may require treatment beyond a routine scale and polish.

Aftercare & follow-up

Brush with fluoride toothpaste and clean between teeth as advised. Your dentist can help you choose suitable tools for your mouth.

Plan the cost before you commit

The extent of cleaning and whether gum treatment or imaging is needed affect the price. A routine cleaning and deeper gum treatment are different procedures.

Confirm the consultation fee when booking. Before treatment, request a breakdown of the procedure, materials and follow-up so you can compare the complete plan.

Questions you may have

Does every patient need a six-month check-up?

No. Recall intervals depend on your oral health and risk of disease. The dentist recommends when you should return.

Is cleaning the same as whitening?

No. Cleaning removes deposits and some surface stains; whitening changes the colour of natural teeth using a different process.

Can cleaning treat bleeding gums?

Cleaning can be part of gum care, but bleeding gums need assessment to identify the cause and the treatment required.
