Dental Checkups

Have you been putting off a visit to the dentist? Was your last dental check-up more than six months ago?
Regular dental check-ups are a vital step to maintaining good oral health.
Oral health covers a wide range of conditions, including dental caries, periodontal (gum) disease and tooth loss for example. With regular visits to the dentist you can help prevent some of these conditions occurring. 

How often should you get a dental check-up?

Our team at Marylebone Dental Care recommend that you visit your dentist regularly. This enables any underlying dental issues to be highlighted in time and properly treated. During your dental check-up at Marylebone Dental Care your dentist will provide a thorough assessment of your existing oral health and set you on the right plan to a bright future in managing and achieving good oral health.

What happens at a dental check-up?

If it’s your first visit to our Marylebone Dental Care practice, your dentist will take your full dental and medical history. You will be encouraged to discuss any concerns or problems you may have regarding your teeth. Following this, a thorough assessment of your existing oral health will be performed, which includes a 16 point check inside and outside your mouth. Oral cancer screening is routinely performed as part of this assessment. X-rays will be taken, if necessary which can help identify dental decay or gum disease.

If any problems are identified, they will be explained by your dentist and information on all available treatment options will be provided, so you can make an informed decision on your dental care.

Dental Decay

Dental decay or dental caries happens when certain types of bacteria found in dental plaque (the film of bacteria that constantly forms on teeth) produce acids that soften the enamel.

Tooth Wear

Tooth wear is a gradual and complex process which leads to the loss of dental hard tissue. This enamel loss can be caused by frequent acid exposures from food and drink (eg fizzy drinks).
