I have not seen a Dentist for many years as I had a bad experience which has left me anxious and nervous, is a dental check-up really necessary?
Great oral hygiene is not only an essential part of maintaining a healthy smile and keeping your natural teeth for as long as possible, but it also helps to avoid the pain and expense of unnecessary dental treatments, so the answer to your question
is a definite yes. The greatest preventative approach to dental care, is a good daily oral care regime accompanied with regular visits to your
dentist for a check-up and clean. Your dentist if needed can advise you on oral hygiene and spot any potential issues early enough to treat them before they become a problem.
During your dental health check your dentist will thoroughly examine your mouth, paying particular attention to your teeth, gums and tongue, looking for the warning signs of tooth decay and gum disease, which may be too subtle for you to have noticed for yourself. Sometimes they may need to take an X-ray to help check for these warning signs. The whole process is quick and painless so please do not worry. You may not require any extra treatment apart from your clean, but whatever you require whether it be a filling, crown or implant your Dentist will discuss with you so you are fully
informed and made to feel at ease
