Regular Dental Check Up And Teeth Clean
Protect your smile and stay ahead of oral health issues with regular dental checkups and professional cleans. These routine visits are one of the simplest and most effective ways to maintain healthy teeth and gums, and they play a vital role in your overall health. At Plaza Dental Care, we provide thorough, gentle, and personalised care that supports your long-term wellbeing.
What Is a Regular Dental Check Up?
A consistent checkup schedule helps prevent more serious issues like tooth loss, infections, and even oral cancer by addressing concerns in their early stage. Think of it as your first line of defence in protecting both your mouth and your overall health.


What Is Included in a Dental Check-Up?
Each dental checkup at Plaza Dental Care includes a comprehensive range of services designed to keep your smile in great shape:
Examination of Your Teeth and Gums
Your dentist will perform a detailed examination of your teeth, gums, soft tissues, and jaw. This may include x-rays to assess what’s happening below the surface and identify concerns like decay, cracks, or impacted teeth.
Gum Health Check
We assess the condition of your gums and check for inflammation or recession, common early indicators of gum disease. Early detection means easier, more effective treatment.
Professional Teeth Clean
Your visit includes a teeth clean by a qualified dental hygienist, who removes hardened plaque and tartar from areas that are difficult to reach at home. This dental check up and clean not only prevents decay and gum issues but also leaves your smile feeling fresh.
Oral Cancer Screening
An often-overlooked benefit of your checkup is a fast, painless oral cancer screening. We check for any unusual signs to ensure early detection of conditions that could affect your overall health.
Personalised Dental Care Advice
To support your oral health between visits, we offer customised advice on brushing and flossing, dietary choices, and oral hygiene tools tailored to your needs.
Why Regular Checkups Are Essential
It’s easy to postpone a dental visit, but small problems can quickly become bigger and more expensive if left untreated. A regular dental check allows your dentist to catch cavities, worn enamel, gum disease, and other dental issues before they lead to pain, infection, or tooth loss.
Ongoing care is also a chance to maintain confidence in your smile, enjoy better breath, and support your long-term overall health with professional insight into how your oral condition may impact the rest of your body.
Invest in your health and smile with a professional dental checkup at Plaza Dental Care. Our experienced team is here to support you with compassionate care, early detection, and expert advice. Book your dental check up today and take the first step toward a healthier, more confident you.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is dental clean up necessary?
Yes. Even with excellent home care, plaque and tartar build up over time in hard-to-reach areas. A professional clean reduces your risk of cavities and gum disease and helps keep your mouth looking and feeling fresh.
How long do dental cleanings take?
A standard clean takes around 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the amount of plaque and tartar present. If you haven’t had a clean in a while, the process may take slightly longer to ensure a thorough result.
How often should I get my teeth checked?
Most patients benefit from a dental check up and clean every six months. If you have specific concerns or are managing existing conditions, your dentist may suggest more frequent visits to monitor your progress and maintain stability.
