REGULAR DENTAL CHECKUPS AT YOUR INDOOROOPILLY DENTIST
What happens at your Regular dental checkup visit?
During your thorough dental check-up appointment at Heritage Dental Group in Indooroopilly, our dentist will evaluate the health of your gums, perform a head and neck examination (to look for anything out of the ordinary). They will also examine your mouth for any indications of gum disease, oral cancer, diabetes or vitamin deficiencies. Don’t be surprised if dentist examines your face, bite, saliva and movement of your lower jaw joints (TMJs). Our Highly Trained dentist will then clean your teeth and stress the importance of you maintaining good oral hygiene at home between visits. Flossing advice and importance.
While cleaning your teeth, the dentist will pay special attention to the plaque and tartar as plaque and tartar can build up in a very short time in the absence of good oral hygiene between visits. If not removed, soft plaque can harden on the teeth and irritate the gum tissue. If not treated, plaque can lead to gum disease.
