Routine examination & x-rays
Regular dental check-ups to monitor your oral health, update X-rays and catch problems early, before they need more complex treatment.
What's checked?
Teeth for new decay or failing restorations, gums for signs of periodontitis, soft tissues for any abnormalities, and bite for changes, plus X-rays updated on your individual recall schedule.
Who is it for?
Existing patients maintaining their oral health, typically every 6–12 months depending on your risk level.
Emergency appointments
If something is acutely wrong between check-ups, contact us for an emergency assessment, don't wait for your routine exam.
Why keep up with routine exams?
- Early intervention
Small problems caught early cost less to fix and preserve more tooth.
- Gum disease monitoring
Silent conditions like periodontitis are tracked and managed.

Updated only when clinically indicated, not as a routine charge.
