Check-up
A thorough look at teeth, gums and bite — the visit that keeps problems small.
What it is
Most dental problems are cheaper, quicker and more comfortable to treat when they are caught early. A check-up examines your teeth, gums and bite, with the intraoral camera so you can see what the dentist sees, and ends with clear advice on what — if anything — needs doing.

Questions patients ask
How often should I come for a check-up?+
Many people are advised to visit every six months, but the right interval depends on your teeth and gums.
Does a check-up hurt?+
No. It’s a painless look and, if needed, a scale-and-polish. Anything more is planned with you first.
