When you attend Forestside for your appointment, we aim to go beyond the standard dental “check up”.
Your comprehensive examination:
ü Medical history update.
ü Checking teeth for signs of tooth wear from acid erosion, tooth grinding or brushing too hard.
ü Checking for signs of decay - Early detection means simpler treatment.
ü Assessment of gum health. Maintaining healthy gums avoids bleeding gums, bad breath and loose teeth.
.
ü Assessment of the way the teeth bite.
ü Examination of the lining of the mouth, the saliva and lymph glands, and the jaw joint, including oral cancer screening.
ü Discuss and diagnose any dental problems you are aware of.
ü Discuss any cosmetic requirements you may have.
ü Discuss all treatment options that are available to you, including the costs, to enable custom treatment plan to be created.
ü Provision of written treatment plan and estimate.
