Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How often do I really need a dental check-up?

For most patients, we strongly recommend a check-up every six months. Patients with specific conditions, such as active gum disease, may need more frequent visits.

Yes, absolutely. Many serious dental problems, like early-stage cavities, gum disease, and even oral cancer, often have no symptoms in their initial stages. Regular check-ups allow us to find and treat these issues while they are small and easy to manage.

While they are often scheduled together, they are two separate procedures. The check-up is the examination and diagnosis performed by the dentist. The cleaning (Scaling and Polishing) is the treatment performed to remove plaque and tartar.
