Check-up & cleaning
A full examination and a thorough professional clean in one unhurried visit, with low-dose digital X-rays and a 3D scan included when you need them.
Who it’s for /
Is it right for you?
Regular check-ups are the simplest way to keep treatment small. Most people need one every six months.
Everyone, twice a year
Most adults and children benefit from a check-up and clean every six months. People with gum problems may need to come more often.
New patients
Your first visit takes about an hour, so we can take a full history, a 3D scan and a baseline set of X-rays.
Bleeding gums or sensitivity
Early gum disease and small cavities rarely hurt. A check-up finds them while they are still simple to treat.
Anyone who has put it off
If it has been years, tell us when you book. We start with a gentle assessment and never judge.

What happens during treatment

What to expect afterwards
Teeth feel smooth and clean straight away. More importantly, small problems are caught early, when a filling is still small or a gum pocket can heal with better cleaning at home.
Aftercare
- You can eat and drink normally straight after your visit.
- Gums can feel slightly tender for a day if there was a lot of tartar. A warm salt-water rinse helps.
- Brush twice a day for two minutes with a fluoride toothpaste and clean between your teeth once a day.
- We send a reminder when your next check-up is due, usually in six months.

For most people, every six months. If you have a history of gum disease we may suggest a hygiene visit every three or four months, and we will explain why.
Most people find it comfortable. If your gums are sensitive, tell your hygienist: we can use a numbing gel or a gentler ultrasonic setting.
No. We take X-rays only when they are clinically due, typically bitewings once a year for most adults, and our digital sensors use a fraction of the dose of film.
