- Early Detection of Issues
Regular checkups allow our experienced dental professionals to identify potential problems, such as cavities, gum disease, or oral cancer, at an early stage. Early detection ensures that treatment is simpler, more effective, and less invasive, saving you from future discomfort and higher costs. By addressing these issues early, we can help you avoid more extensive and expensive treatments down the line. - Professional Cleanings for Optimal Oral Health
Even with diligent home care, plaque and tartar can still build up in hard-to-reach areas. Our thorough cleanings remove these deposits, preventing tooth decay and gum disease, and leaving your mouth feeling fresh and healthy. Professional cleanings also help to remove surface stains, keeping your teeth looking bright and polished. - Personalized Oral Health Advice
During your checkup, our team provides personalized recommendations tailored to your specific needs. From brushing techniques to dietary advice, we empower you with the knowledge to maintain excellent oral health between visits, ensuring a brighter smile and improved overall well-being. We can also offer guidance on managing any ongoing dental issues and recommend preventive measures to keep your mouth healthy.

Why Do I Need Professional Cleans?
When a dental professional cleans your teeth, they can achieve a much more thorough clean than you can achieve at home with your toothbrush and floss. In fact, once plaque hardens into tartar, it’s impossible for you to remove it without special tools. We remove the tartar and hard-to-reach plaque from your teeth and gums and also teach you how to improve your at-home brushing and flossing techniques. The exam portion of your visit is also essential. With regular exams, the dentist can keep an eye on your teeth and gums to catch any developing dental problems at an early stage. Dental issues caught early on can often be treated more conservatively, avoiding the need for complex dental procedures.
How Often Should I Have My Teeth Cleaned
We generally recommend dental cleans and exams at least twice yearly. However, some people may require more frequent attention. We will work with you to arrange a customised clean and exam schedule.
Emergency Dental Care
Keeping your teeth and gums strong and healthy can help to prevent toothache and other dental emergencies. However if you have a dental emergency such as a toothache, broken tooth or an infection our dentists are here to help you.
