Asked Questions
How often should I see a dentist?
Most people need a dental check every 6 - 18 months. Children should see a dentist more frequently — generally every 3 - 12 months. Exactly how often you need to come depends on a number of factors including your general health, risk of dental disease, age and lifestyle habits.
Nothing seems wrong with my teeth, why do I need a check-up?
Getting regular check-ups is crucial because it lets us spot issues early, even those that may not show any symptoms. Regular check-ups often avoid the need for costly and invasive dental treatment down the track. If you develop any issues in between check-ups, such as pain, bleeding from your gums, increased sensitivity or difficulty chewing, we do recommend that you come in to see us straight away.
