Top 10 Dental Check-up FAQs
Quick answers to the most common questions about dental check-ups – what’s included, how often to attend, and what happens if we spot a problem.
1. What is a dental check-up?
A dental check-up is a routine examination of your teeth, gums and mouth to assess your oral health. It helps identify early signs of decay, gum disease and other issues before they become more serious.
2. What happens during a dental check-up?
Your clinician will examine your teeth and gums, check your bite, and look for any signs of wear, damage or infection. If needed, they may recommend further tests or treatments based on what they find.
3. How often should I have a dental check-up?
Check-up frequency varies from person to person. Your clinician will recommend an interval based on your oral health, risk factors and any ongoing treatment needs.
4. Do I need X-rays at every check-up?
Not always. X-rays are used when they’re clinically appropriate and help detect problems that aren’t visible during an examination. Your clinician will explain if they’re recommended and why.
5. What’s the difference between a check-up and a hygiene appointment?
A check-up focuses on examining and diagnosing your oral health. A hygiene appointment focuses on professional cleaning and gum care. Many people benefit from both as part of a preventative routine.
6. What if you find a problem during my check-up?
If we spot an issue, we’ll explain what it is, what it means, and the options for managing it. Some problems can be monitored, while others may need treatment – you’ll be guided through next steps.
7. Will a dental check-up hurt?
A routine check-up is usually comfortable. If you have sensitive areas or you’re worried, let your clinician know – they can take extra care and talk you through what they’re doing.
8. I haven’t been to the dentist in a while – can I still book a check-up?
Yes. Many people return after a gap, and a check-up is a good first step. The appointment helps us understand where things are up to and create a plan that suits you.
9. What should I do before my dental check-up?
Brush and floss as normal, and bring any relevant information such as current medications. If you have any symptoms or concerns, make a note so you don’t forget to mention them.
10. Can a dental check-up detect oral cancer?
A check-up includes an assessment of your mouth and surrounding tissues, and clinicians may look for unusual changes. If anything needs investigating further, you’ll be advised on the most appropriate next step.

Why Are Routine Dentist Check Ups So Important?
Preventing issues rather than fixing issues is always far better, so keeping up with your routine dental check ups is important for both your oral and general health.
- During your dentist check up, you can sit back and relax in our one of a kind clinic.
- One of our dentists will examine your teeth, mouth, tongue and gums to make sure everything is as healthy as can be.
- Certain problems with the mouth can indicate other health issues, such as mouth cancer or general diseases, which our team are experts in identifying.
- We will occasionally take x-rays of the mouth to identify any issues deeper down, such as decay or bone loss. You may also be referred to our hygienist to remove plaque build-up following your routine dental check up, if necessary.
We can keep an eye on everything and identify where intervention may be needed early on to help you maintain that healthy smile. Even if you feel like there is nothing wrong with your teeth, we might spot something that you can’t pick up on.
