First Visit
Our dental specialists/ dental surgeon will find out the details of your medical and dental history. He or she will assess the health of your teeth and gums by:
- Taking X-rays
- Examining the gums
- Looking for signs of gum disease
- Checking for loose teeth
- Looking at the tissues inside your mouth
- Examining your tongue
- Checking your bite
- Looking for visual evidence of tooth decay
- Checking for broken teeth
- Checking for damaged fillings
- Looking for changes in the gums covering teeth
- Checking the contact between your teeth
- Treatment
Consultation and treatment (if necessary) should be completed within 30 minutes. Sometimes, where complicated treatment may be required, the process may take a longer time. If your schedule does not allow, our dental specialist/ dental surgeon will schedule for you to make a repeat visit another day for further treatment.
Follow Up Care
Besides the 6-monthly dental check-up, you should have a good home care regime to maintain healthy teeth and gums in-between dental visits. Brush and floss your teeth twice a day or after each meal to remove plaque build-up. Include foods that are good for your teeth like fruits and vegetables, whole grains and dairy products like cheese and milk into your diet.
