Dental Check-Up Notting Hill

What does a dental check-up at the dentist involve?

Our practitioners will use an array of methods to determine the health of your teeth and gums. Dental consultations involve a discussion about the patient’s concerns before a manual evaluation is carried out by the clinician.

Detailed clinical photographs will be taken for documentation purposes and to assess areas of concern. X-rays may also be taken when necessary; to assess bone levels and decay, while 3D scanning when appropriate will help to monitor teeth wear, gum recession and the movement of teeth. The dentist will use the information gathered at the dental consultation to explain the findings and address any questions.

Once complete, you’ll have a detailed discussion about your dental health using the visual tools and if required, a treatment plan will be drawn up. It’s usual for a dental check-up to be complemented with a hygiene procedure.

Anxious about having a dental check-up? Worry not – patient comfort is our priority. Our trained clinicians will do everything they can to put you at ease during your consultation.
