A dental check-up and clean is a routine procedure to maintain optimal oral health. If you’re preparing for your first visit or need a refresher, here’s a breadown overview of what typically happens:
- Reception & Paperwork: Upon arrival, you may need to fill out or update your medical history form, especially if it’s your first visit or if there have been changes in your health.
- Dental X-rays: Not always required, but if it’s been a while since your last set or if you’re a new patient, the dentist might recommend X-rays to get a comprehensive view of your teeth and jaw.
- Oral Examination: The dentist will visually examine your teeth, gums, and mouth. They’ll check for signs of cavities, gum disease, oral cancer, or other potential concerns.
- Scaling: This is where the dental hygienist or dentist will use specialized instruments to remove tartar (hardened plaque) from your teeth. This process helps prevent gum disease and cavities.
- Polishing: After scaling, your teeth will be polished to remove any remaining plaque or stains, giving them a smooth finish. This is typically done using a gritty toothpaste and an electric brush.
- Flossing: The dentist or hygienist will floss between your teeth to ensure all areas are clean and to check for any potential gum problems.
- Fluoride Treatment: Depending on your dental health and the dentist’s recommendation, you might receive a fluoride treatment to strengthen your teeth and protect against cavities.
- Discussion & Recommendations: Post-examination, the dentist will discuss any findings with you. If there are areas of concern, potential treatments will be recommended. They’ll also provide tips for at-home care and may suggest when you should return for your next visit.
- Scheduling Follow-up: If you require any further treatments or if it’s time to schedule your next routine check-up, you’ll arrange this before leaving.
Regular check-ups and cleans are vital for maintaining good oral health, catching potential issues early, and receiving professional cleaning beyond regular at-home brushing and flossing.
Remember to address any concerns or questions during your appointment to make the most of your visit.
