Dental examination and routine check-ups: history taking, digital X-rays when needed, professional cleaning and early diagnosis for regular oral health.
Dental examination and routine check-ups are a preventive practice in which oral and dental health is assessed on a regular basis. During the examination, a detailed medical history is taken, digital X-rays are used for assessment when necessary, and tartar removal with professional cleaning is carried out. Early diagnosis allows possible problems to be noticed at an early stage and a treatment plan specific to the person is drawn up. Check-ups are recommended at the intervals advised by your dentist, generally every 6 months.
The Dental Examination and Routine Check-up Process
Dental examination and routine check-up generally consists of the following stages:
Examination and History Taking
The patient's complaints and general health history are reviewed, and a visual examination of the mouth is carried out.
Digital X-ray (When Needed)
When the clinical examination alone is not sufficient, a digital X-ray is used to assess the teeth and jaw structure in detail.
Tartar Removal
Plaque and tartar that have built up on the tooth surface and along the gumline are removed with special instruments.
Professional Cleaning and Polishing
The teeth are polished with a professional brush and paste to smooth the surface and reduce the risk of staining.
Early Diagnosis Assessment
Decay, gum disease and other possible issues are checked for at an early stage.
Personalised Treatment Plan and Check-up Interval
Based on the examination findings, a treatment plan specific to the person is prepared; the next check-up is scheduled at the interval advised by your dentist, generally every 6 months.
