At The Appointment
Routine dental check-ups and cleans are essential to healthy oral health. Relax in your chair as our Oral Health Therapists use the EMS Airflow system, with its precise jet of warm water and soft powder to gently lift away stains and soft calculus. Your teeth will be cleaned, polished and treated with fluoride if requested, leaving you with the best feeling clean you’ve ever had. The Oral Health Therapist or dentist will perform a thorough examination of each tooth, all soft tissue and the overall condition of your mouth. Care instructions and advice will be provided as part of the check-up to ensure you remain on track with your oral hygiene.
The EMS airflow system goes where hand scaling alone simply cannot, to provide an unrivalled cleaning experience. Simply, the best clean you’ll ever have.
Should further treatment be required, our team take the time to explain your options in detail, along the benefits and drawbacks of each option and their associated costs. This is all to ensure you have the required information to make an informed decision. We can even provide an estimated out of pocket expense if you’re with a health fund whilst you’re in the clinic.
Why are regular check-ups important?
Dental problems typically don’t happen overnight, short of breaking a tooth! But dental problems can certainly progress over the course of several months to the point where more drastic and costly intervention is required. This is why it is recommend to get a check up every 6 months, so any issues can be identified and addressed before expensive and drastic action is required.
Think of it as servicing your car. To prevent long term issues, it is important to have it serviced regularly, even if it’s running perfectly well. The same is for teeth. Just because they feel fine and healthy does not mean that all is well and good.
For particularly nervous patients, or depending on personal preferences, sedation aids are available.
