Why Do I Need Dental Check-up?

Dental or oral health is concerned with your teeth, gums and mouth. The goal is to prevent complications such as tooth decay (cavities) and gum disease and to maintain the overall health of your mouth. Cavities are painful places on your teeth where decay has eaten through the enamel and exposed a tooth’s root. Hot or cold food or liquids can send a painful signal that something is wrong. Gum disease may cause loss of teeth, infections and other complications. Diseased, crooked or missing teeth can interfere with your speech; make chewing your food properly difficult and painful.

What Happens in a Dental Check Up?

The check-up at Whitefern Dental Health, Essex lasts between 20-40 minutes and includes evaluating your risk of developing other oral problems and checking your face, neck and mouth for abnormalities.


During a dental exam, the dentist will undertake:

  • Thorough Examination: Our dentists will perform a comprehensive examination of your teeth, gums, and mouth to detect any potential issues.
  • X-Rays: If necessary, we will take X-rays to get a detailed view of your dental structure and identify any underlying problems.
  • Oral Cancer Screening: Early detection is crucial, and our team will conduct a screening to ensure your overall oral health.
  • Treatment Planning: Based on the examination and findings, we will discuss any required treatments and preventive measures to keep your smile healthy.
  • Diet and oral hygiene: Understanding lifestyle factors that can affect oral health and possible cosmetic improvements to your teeth, plus proper brushing and flossing techniques.
