Preventative Dental Care

The recall visit interval for dental check-ups are determined by the health of your teeth and gums. As diagnosed in the first visit, you might be at mild, moderate or increased risk of dental or gum disease.

Accordingly, we determine your recall visit. Most patients will require 6 monthly dental exams but if you are at a higher risk of dental or gum disease, you might be advised to return sooner (in 3 months). Alternatively, if you are in the very best of oral health, we will need to see you on an annual basis.

The recall visit is approximately 30 minutes. This visit will be mainly focussed on the assessment of the response of your teeth or gums to the treatment, reviewing for any necessary intervention and reinforcement of the home care instructions. We have a range of home care products such as tooth mousse, fluoride toothpaste, mouthwashes, interdental brushing and flossing systems. We can discuss with you and recommend a home care plan that best suits your needs.

We can also accommodate if you are a night grinder and require a splint or a rugby or soccer player and you need a lab-made mouthguard to protect those pearly whites.
