Looking after your smile starts with understanding it.
Your oral health check is a calm, thorough appointment designed to give you clarity, reassurance, and confidence in your dental health. We take the time to look carefully, explain what we see, and answer any questions you may have along the way.

Checking your teeth
We carefully examine your teeth to look for any signs of damage, wear, or early decay.
By identifying changes at an early stage, we can often help strengthen and protect your teeth before more involved treatment is needed.
Looking after your gums
Healthy gums are the foundation of a healthy smile.
We gently check your gums for any early signs of inflammation or gum disease. These conditions can develop quietly, so regular monitoring helps us keep everything on track and treat any concerns early.
Assessing wear and tear
Teeth can naturally wear over time, but sometimes this can be increased by habits such as grinding, brushing too hard, or exposure to acidic foods and drinks.
We’ll look for any signs of this and guide you on how to protect your teeth moving forward.
A careful soft tissue check
We also carry out a thorough check of the soft tissues in and around your mouth, including your tongue, cheeks, and lips.
This helps us identify anything unusual early and ensures everything remains healthy.
Reassurance and next steps
Before you leave, we’ll talk you through what we’ve found in a clear and straightforward way.
If everything is healthy, we’ll help you keep it that way. If anything needs attention, we’ll explain your options and support you in deciding what feels right for you.
