The Australian Dental Association recommends that you should visit your dentist for a check-up and clean every 6 months. Regular dental cleans will keep your teeth and gums healthy, helping to prevent dental disease, gum disease and bad breath. If a cavity does begin to form in a tooth, it can be identified and treated at an early stage, preventing the need for any major or expensive dental work. The lack of regular dental check ups is the main cause of of dental treatment that costs more than it should.
We recommend regular check up with scaling/cleaning visits as per the Australian Dental Association. For some of our patients with excellent dental hygiene and good diets, we recommend check ups every 12 months.
