At every check-up, your dentist will:

- Examine your mouth, teeth, gums, cheeks and tongue.

- Ask you questions about any problems or pain you’ve had since your last check-up.

- Give you advice on things you can do to improve your oral health such as recommendations on your diet, how to brush, oral hygiene, etc…

Your dentist may also need to take X-rays of your mouth to check for any hidden problems such as decay and bone loss due to gum disease.

If you have a build-up of plaque, you may be referred to a hygienist to perform a scale and polish, or your dentist may do this straightaway if necessary. Sometimes, hygienist treatments are carried out in the same appointment as your check-up.

Your dentist will also check for any signs of mouth cancer or other general diseases that can affect the mouth at each dental check-up. If any further problems are identified, your dentist will recommend the next steps to take.
