What happens during a dental check-up?

At your check-up at Smithfield Dental, our dentist examines your teeth, gums and mouth to assess your dental health. You’ll be asked about any problems you’ve had with your teeth, mouth or gums since your last check-up.

Before the actual check-up begins, your dentist will typically start by asking about your medical history and any concerns you may have. This initial assessment helps the dentist understand your specific needs and tailor the check-up accordingly.

During the assessment, your dentist may also ask about your oral hygiene routine and provide guidance on how to improve it if needed. They may recommend specific products or techniques to help you maintain good oral health.

To get a comprehensive view of your oral health, dental X-rays may be taken during your check-up. X-rays can reveal hidden issues such as cavities between the teeth, impacted wisdom teeth, or bone loss. These images assist the dentist in making an accurate diagnosis and developing an appropriate treatment plan.

After the X-rays, your dentist will perform a thorough oral examination. They will check each tooth for signs of decay, damage, or infection. They will also examine your gums, tongue, and other oral tissues for any abnormalities. If necessary, the dentist may perform additional tests or refer you to a specialist for further evaluation.

Once the examination is complete, your dentist will discuss their findings with you. They will explain any issues or potential problems they have identified and provide recommendations for treatment or preventive measures. This is an opportunity for you to ask questions and address any concerns you may have.

Depending on the findings, the treatment recommendations may include procedures such as fillings, crowns, root canals, or gum treatments. Your dentist will explain the procedures in detail and discuss the benefits and potential risks. They will work with you to develop a treatment plan that suits your individual needs and preferences.

Lastly, we will provide you with a full treatment plan and a schedule of fees.

“Dr Alexandria Pierre was very attentive and kind during the check-up and cleaning. I couldn’t be happier!”

“Dr Maria Cristina Varela Montilla is simply amazing. I used to be absolutely terrified by dentist before I met her. She is really caring about her patients and always making sure we are feeling throughout the whole procedure. She will also give you honest advices and recommendations. On top of that, she is always super smiley and cheerful, which makes everything nicer.”

“I recently attended the clinic for an emergency root canal with Dr Maria Varela. Dr Maria was incredibly caring, and the process was painless. I cannot recommend the clinic and Dr Maria highly enough. Outstanding 5 Star service.”

I would highly recommend Smithfield dental. A very warm greeting when you walk in the door. A great service and very helpful with your questions . I will continue to go back to them.

I'm shocked at my experience quite frankly. I've previously used another dentist in the area, and it scared me off dentists to be honest. After a few years and recently having some pain with wisdom teeth I decided to try again. I called on Tuesday and had an appt for the next day, amazing so far. The office itself is clean, modern and Bobby at reception is very welcoming. I mentioned to the dental team as I sat in the dreaded chair that my teeth are my point of shame and I hadn't seen anyone about it in a long time, they were so....I suppose, gentle. They talked me through what was happening, reassured me that it wasn't as bad as I had feared and were able to give me a plan of action that didn't sound daunting or overblown. In a weird way I can't wait to go back, looking after my teeth properly now seems like something I can do which is a thing I never thought I'd say! Thank you so much guys!
