Existing Patient Dental Check-up and Clean

As you can appreciate that regular dental check-up and clean is required to maintain healthy teeth and gums, we recommend 6 monthly dental check-up and clean. If you have existing gum disease or you have had extensive dental treatment in the past, then the dentist might suggest 3-6 monthly dental check-up and clean.  Please allow 30-45 minutes for your 6 monthly return dental check-up and clean visit. Any additional text/x-rays/scans may be recommended as necessary.

Why do I need X-ray?

Depending on your presenting condition, after the oral exam, the dentist may recommend a dental X-ray. An X-ray can help the dentist look for any decay between teeth as well as identifying any impacted teeth, abscesses, or cysts on the roots of your teeth.

It is recommended to repeat your standard dental bitewing X-rays every 2 years. OPG panoramic X-rays will only be taken and repeated as necessary. We offer the X-ray service on the premises for both standard dental X-rays as well as OPG. We use digital X-rays which offers the advantage of better resolution in images, reduced radiation exposure than traditional film X-rays and instant availability of the X-rays.

How often should I get a Dental check-up and Clean?

It is recommended that to maintain healthy teeth and gums, you should get a dental check-up and clean every 6 months. This will be applicable if you have healthy teeth and gums. However, if you have existing gum disease then you may need to have more frequent dental check up and clean in 3-6 months. If you have had extensive dental treatments in the past or have a dental implant, then also the dentist might recommend having more frequent dental check up and clean in 3-6 months. Everyone is different and therefore frequency of dental check-up may vary depending on the presenting conditions and oral hygiene of each individual patient.

What happens after my Dental Check-up and Clean?

If there are any complications, a return visit may be required for restoration work, such as a filling or crown. For more complex work, the dentist may need to refer you to a specialist such as an orthodontist, periodontist, oral surgeon, or an endodontist. If any referral is required, we will arrange that for you and prebook you for your next 6 monthly Dental Check up and Clean as well.
