ABOUT THIS SERVICE

Dental Check-Up

A check-up is a regular examination of your mouth. Your dentist looks at your teeth, gums and the soft tissues in your mouth, and asks about your general health and any concerns. X-rays are taken where they are needed.

Dental problems such as decay and gum disease often start without pain, so a check-up can help find early signs before they become more serious. Your dentist can then explain what, if anything, needs treatment and give you advice tailored to your mouth.

A check-up is an examination. If your dentist finds that treatment is needed, they will explain the options and the cost before anything is done.

  • Examine your teeth, gums and the inside of your mouth
  • Check for signs of decay, gum disease and infection
  • Look at your bite and any worn, chipped or cracked teeth
  • Take X-rays where they are needed

What it can help to find

  • Early signs of tooth decay
  • Gum disease
  • Infection or other changes in the mouth
  • Problems with existing fillings or crowns

Advice you can expect

  • How to clean your teeth and gums effectively
  • How diet and habits such as smoking can affect your mouth

Good to know

QUESTIONS

Dental Check-Up FAQs

How often should I have a check-up?

It differs from person to person. Your dentist will advise how often you should be seen based on the health of your teeth and gums and your own risk of problems.

Will I need X-rays?

Only if your dentist thinks they are needed to check for things they cannot see by looking. They will explain why. X-rays use a very small amount of radiation.

Does a check-up include a scale and polish?

A check-up is an examination. Your dentist will tell you whether you would benefit from a professional clean (a hygiene appointment) and explain what it involves.

Will a check-up hurt?

A check-up is not normally painful. Tell your dentist if you have sensitive teeth or are anxious, and they can take it at your pace.

What if you find a problem?

Your dentist will explain what they have found, the treatment options and the cost. You can take time to decide, and nothing is done without your consent.

Can I book if I am in pain?

Yes, and please tell us when you book. If you have swelling of the face or neck, difficulty swallowing, or severe pain you cannot control, seek urgent care (NHS 111, or 999 in an emergency).

What should I bring?

A list of any medicines you take and details of any medical conditions or allergies. If you have recent dental X-rays or records, you can bring them.

How much does it cost?

Our current listed price is from £65. Any X-rays, clean or treatment are separate and will be explained first.

Where is the clinic and how do I book?

We are at 15 Allerton Road, Liverpool, L18 1LG. You can book online using the booking button, or call 0151 808 3018 to speak to our team.
