Dental Check Up

Dental check-ups allow for early detection and prevention of oral health issues, including cavities, gum disease, and oral cancer. Additionally, professional cleaning helps remove plaque and tartar buildup, preventing tooth decay and gum problems, leading to better overall oral health.

What is a dental check up?

A dental check-up, also known as a dental examination, is a routine appointment with a dentist to assess and maintain oral health. During the check-up, the dentist evaluates the overall health of the teeth, gums, and mouth, looking for signs of dental issues such as cavities, gum disease, or oral cancer. They may perform dental cleanings to remove plaque and tartar buildup, take X-rays to detect hidden problems, and provide preventive treatments like fluoride applications or dental sealants. Dental check-ups are essential for early detection and prevention of dental problems, ensuring optimal oral health and wellbeing.
