Check-up & Clean.

A dental check-up is the most important 45 minutes you can give your mouth every six months. We examine your teeth, gums, bite, and soft tissues; take X-rays when clinically indicated; perform a professional scale and polish to remove plaque and tartar; and screen for early signs of decay, gum disease, and oral cancer. Nothing about this appointment is rushed — we take the time to find small problems before they become painful ones.

Process

How check-up & clean is delivered.

  1. Step 01

    Consultation & examination

    We begin with a conversation about what you're noticing and what you want from your teeth long-term. A clinical examination and any imaging needed follows.

  2. Step 02

    Findings & plan

    Dr. Nick walks you through what he sees, what's urgent, what's optional, and what can wait. No surprises, no pressure — just a clear picture and your options.

  3. Step 03

    Treatment

    Appointments scheduled around your life. Everything explained as we go. Time taken to do the work properly.

  4. Step 04

    Maintenance

    Regular check-ups keep small problems small. We'll agree on a recall interval that makes sense for your mouth.

Risks & considerations

Routine cleaning occasionally causes transient sensitivity, particularly around areas of gum recession. If X-rays are needed, we use low-dose digital systems.

All dental procedures carry potential risks and benefits. Individual results vary. A consultation with a registered dental practitioner is required to determine whether a treatment is suitable for you.
