Combine your check-up Appointment

With Maida Smiles, we know that our patients are busy, and often the last thing they want to do is visit the dentist repeatedly.

So, we’ve made it easy for patients to combine their check-up appointments with other treatments like hygiene sessions to save them time and money.

But it’s not just this. If we identify any concerning problems during your check-up, like decaying or broken teeth, we have the facilities to treat your issue on the same day – whatever it is.

What our dental check-ups involve

For £110, new patients receive a comprehensive first-exam:

  • 10-point check of your oral and gum health
  • Medical history and concern assessment
  • Oral cancer screening, x-rays and radiographs
  • Analysis of current dental work like fillings, crowns etc
  • Occlusal and TMJ assessment
  • A full report on your oral health and a next step treatment plan

Extensive check-ups

Extensive dental examinations are essential for identifying potential issues that have yet to show any symptoms.

  • It is important to get a comprehensive exam during your first appointment with a new dentist, if you haven’t been to the dentist in three or more years, or if you have experienced any significant health issues since your last dental appointment.
  • Unlike a general dental examination, comprehensive exams include several steps, designed to identify specific potential issues.

These Include:

  • Digital X-Rays
  • Gum Disease screening
  • Oral Cancer screening
  • Oral examination
  • Digital X-Rays are used to check for decay, cavities, bone loss and other potential issues.

Routine exams

Routine dental exams are the most efficient way of identifying abnormalities and preventing potential issues from growing.

Identifying and dealing with problems early enough increase the chance of treatment success and can also help patients save money in the long run.

Routine examinations include visual inspections to check and touch:

  • Each tooth
  • Your gums
  • Tongue and cheeks

If there is an obvious cavity or infection, an x-ray is to be taken and your teeth will have any build-up of plaque removed with a hygiene session.

Children's check-ups

  • Detect problems early, when they’re most treatable, and provide tips for caring for your child’s teeth.
  • Combined hygiene appointment to clean your child’s teeth and evaluate the risk of tooth decay.

For Children Aged Between 6 Months And 1 Year

  • Removal of stains or deposits on teeth by gently scrubbing.
  • Assessment of how much fluoride your child is getting through diet and use of oral hygiene products. We may prescribe a fluoride supplement or apply a topical fluoride treatment to your child’s teeth if necessary.
  • Identify any sores or bumps on your child’s tongue, inside the cheeks, and on the roof of the mouth while evaluating the impact of habits.

Signs that you need a check-up ASAP

Check your symptoms

There are a few signs that shouldn’t be ignored, as the longer you leave them, the worse the situation can become.

  • Heightened tooth sensitivity to touch or hot and cold
  • Sharp tooth pain, especially when biting down
  • Toothache that won’t go away
  • Staining on the front surface of teeth or tooth turning black
  • Lumps on the gum, or pus pockets
  • Black triangular spaces between teeth
  • Receding, throbbing, tender or bleeding gums
  • Your last check-up was six months ago

If you think your case is urgent, we have a special emergency dental service, which reserves a certain number of spaces each day for patients who need to be seen within four hours of their call.
