Why Regular Dental Visits Matter
Regular dental visits help you maintain healthy teeth and gums and identify dental problems before they become more complex. Professional cleaning also removes plaque and tartar that can build up in areas that are difficult to clean at home.
Regular check-ups can help to:
- prevent and detect tooth decay (cavities)
- reduce the risk of tooth loss associated with decay and gum disease
- monitor the health of your teeth and gums
- remove plaque and tartar build-up
- keep your teeth clean and your breath fresh
- identify dental problems early
General Dentistry FAQs
How often should you go to the Dentist?
It is recommended that you visit your Dentist for a Dental Check-up and Clean appointment once every 6 months. If you are facing any Dental problems or are undergoing treatment, your Brisbane Dentist appointments may be more frequent or as recommended by the Brisbane Smiles Toowong Dentist. People with a high risk of tooth decay, tooth sensitivity, gum disease, excess plaque or bacterial build-up may be required to visit the Dentist more often to monitor their condition. Your Dentist will be able to help you determine your specific circumstances and recommend how often you should get a Dental Check-up.
How much does the Dentist cost?
A Dental Check-up cost Brisbane will depend on the type of appointment and whether it is for an adult or a child. The Brisbane Dental Check-up cost will also vary if you have a health fund. You can view the Dental Check-Up cost of the appointment when you book online. Additional treatment costs will be outlined by your Oral Health Professional and payment plans may be available to you.
How do Dentists promote health and wellbeing?
Our oral health is linked to our overall general and mental health. Therefore, taking good care of your mouth is important to stay healthy. At Brisbane Smiles, we practice Preventive Dentistry at each Dental Check-Up appointment which works to prevent harmful dental conditions from occurring. Our team also works to educate the community on how to care for your oral health, to encourage a healthier community. Additionally, maintaining a healthy-looking smile helps to keep us smiling!
What is involved in a General Dental assessment?
At a General Dental Check-Up appointment, our experienced Brisbane Dentist at our Toowong Dentist Clinic will assess the health of your gums, teeth, bite and aesthetics. This allows our Dentists to prevent gum disease, loose teeth, gum recession, infections, decay, jaw wear and other harmful conditions. The Dentist may also assess the aesthetics of your smile to ensure your smile appears healthy.
