Periodic check-up

A periodic check-up is crucial for maintaining your oral health. During this appointment, we thoroughly examine your teeth to detect any problems early. The goal is to keep your teeth in optimal condition and to discuss a follow-up plan that aligns with your personal situation.

Examination

During the periodic check-up, we conduct a comprehensive examination of your teeth, gums, and oral mucosa. We assess the overall health of your mouth and note any changes since your last visit. This examination helps us evaluate the condition of your teeth and intervene early if any problems arise.

In addition to the visual examination, X-rays may also be taken if necessary. This can help us better identify hidden issues, such as cavities or gum disease. The goal is to obtain a complete picture of your oral health so that we can make the best decisions together.

Customized check-up frequency

The frequency of your periodic check-ups is tailored to your personal needs. For most people, a check-up every six months is sufficient, but certain risk factors may require a shorter or longer interval. This may be the case for individuals at increased risk of gum problems or other oral health issues.

During your appointment, we will discuss together what the best check-up frequency is for you. We believe in a personal approach, taking into account your medical history, oral hygiene, and lifestyle. This way, we can ensure that you receive the care that suits you.

Additional diagnostics only on indication

If necessary, additional diagnostics can be performed, but this is done only on indication. This means that we only propose extra examinations or treatments if they are truly necessary for your oral health. This may be the case if we notice abnormalities during the examination that require further investigation.

By performing additional diagnostics on indication, we ensure that you are not unnecessarily exposed to extra treatments or examinations. We strive to make your care as efficient and effective as possible, always prioritizing your health.

Discussing a follow-up plan together

After the examination, we will discuss a follow-up plan tailored to your situation. This can range from placing a filling to scheduling a follow-up check-up. Together with you, we will look at the best options and ensure that you are well-informed about the steps that need to be taken.

It is important that you feel heard and that your questions are answered. We take the time to go through everything calmly with you, so that you can proceed with peace of mind. Together, we work towards a healthy and radiant smile.

Aftercare

Aftercare is an important aspect of the periodic check-up. After your appointment, it is essential to follow the advice we discussed. This may include improving your oral hygiene or using specific products to keep your teeth healthy.

Additionally, it is important to schedule your next check-up in a timely manner. By returning regularly, we can ensure that any problems are detected and treated early. Good aftercare contributes to long-term oral health.
