What To Expect At Your Routine Dental Check Up:
Our routine dental checks are a comprehensive assessment of your oral health, performed in one of our seven bespoke rooms specially designed for comfort and relaxation. During your routine dental check up in Milton Keynes, all you have to worry about is sitting back and relaxing, and your experienced dentist will:
Ask about any pain you’ve been experiencing:
Your check up will begin with your dentist catching up with you, asking about any pain or discomfort that you have been experiencing since your last visit.
Examine your teeth and gums:
We will look for any signs of decay, gum disease or other problems, as well as check the alignment of your teeth and the overall health of your gums.
Give you advice on oral health:
Once your check up is complete, we will talk to you about your oral health habits and advise you on how to improve them. Your dentist may also recommend products or treatments to help you keep your teeth and gums healthy.
What Next?
Depending on the outcome of your dental check, your dentist may:
Take X-rays:
Sometimes, we may come across some dental problems that are not visible to the naked eye. If your dentist suspects this may be the case, we may also need to take some X-rays of your mouth to check for any hidden issues, such as decay or bone loss due to gum disease.
Clean your teeth:
Many people discover during their check up that they’ve acquired a build-up of plaque and tartar. Plaque is a sticky film of bacteria that can build up on your teeth, and tartar is hardened plaque that can lead to gum disease. If this is the case, one of our dental hygienists will clean your teeth to remove this and get your smile back on track!
