Your routine 6 monthly visit includes a comprehensive examination of your teeth, gums, and oral tissue. We check for any signs of decay, gum disease, or other oral health issues.
Early detection is key to maintaining your oral health and avoiding more extensive treatments down the line.
A professional scale and polish removes plaque and tartar buildup that regular brushing can't reach. This helps prevent gum disease and keeps your teeth looking their best.
Our gentle cleaning leaves your teeth feeling fresh and smooth, and we can also polish away surface stains for a brighter smile.
Keeping your prescheduled exam and clean is the key to keeping visits with us short and sweet!
We provide personalised oral hygiene instructions to help you maintain optimal dental health at home.
Learn the best techniques for brushing, flossing, and using interdental cleaners tailored to your specific needs.
We'll recommend the right products for your oral health needs and help you develop a sustainable home care routine.
Common questions about preventative dental care
Preventative dentistry focuses on maintaining healthy teeth and gums through regular check-ups, cleans, and early treatment. At My Dental Home, preventative care helps reduce the risk of cavities, gum disease, and costly dental issues.
Most patients are recommended to visit the dentist every six months for preventative dentistry care. Your dentist may suggest more frequent visits depending on your oral health needs and risk factors.
Preventative dentistry appointments typically include a dental examination, professional clean, oral health assessment, and personalised advice. Our Underwood QLD dental team also checks for early signs of dental problems.
