Home Care Advice

We provide tips and tools for improving your daily brushing, flossing, and oral hygiene habits. 

For our basic dental check-up, we normally take standard dental X-rays to identify issues such as decay between teeth, bone loss, or impacted teeth. These basic intraoral X-rays are included in our check-up fees. If special X-rays such as panoramic or 3D CBCT scans are needed, we will discuss their purpose and costs with you beforehand.

We inspect fillings, crowns, bridges, or implants for any signs of wear or breakdown. 

We check your teeth, gums, and mouth for signs of decay, gum disease, and any abnormalities. 

Based on your needs, we recommend your next visit in 6 to 12 months to stay on top of your oral health. 

Discussion & Advice

We talk through any concerns, answer questions, and offer personalised tips for maintaining oral health. 

Personalised Cleaning Plan

We may coordinate with our dental hygienists to develop a tailored cleaning and gum health routine. 

Oral Cancer Screening

By covering the whole tooth, a crown acts as a barrier against wear, breakage, and bacteria.

Treatment Plan & Estimate

If any treatment is needed, we’ll provide you with a written plan outlining the options, costs, and timeframes. 

Dental Consultations 

If you have a specific concern or are considering treatment such as cosmetic work, implants, or orthodontics, we offer focused consultation appointments. 
 


A basic consultation may address one specific issue, such as a sore tooth or sensitive area. For more comprehensive treatments like cosmetic dentistry, dental implants, or orthodontics, we may require additional planning, including 3D imaging, photographs, and other detailed records to accurately design your treatment. The fee for consultations varies depending on the type and complexity of the consultation required. 
 


We take the time to listen to your goals, assess your needs, and explain your treatment options clearly so you can make informed choices.
