Routine dental health reviews
Serving patients throughout Southampton, West End, Portsmouth and Chichester
At Dental Health Private Dental Clinic, our focus is on preventative dental care, helping you avoid problems before they develop and maintaining a healthy mouth. We provide both routine and specialist dental care to patients across Southampton, West End, Portsmouth and Chichester and beyond.
Regular dental health reviews are essential for identifying concerns early before they develop into more complex issues. These reviews are usually recommended every 6 to 12 months, depending on your unique needs. Your dentist will assess your oral health and advise on the best recall frequency to maintain your long-term dental well-being.
During each routine dental health assessment, we check:
- Signs of tartar build-up and tooth decay
- The presence of chips or cracks
- The health of your gums
- Condition and functionality of existing restorations, such as fillings, crowns, bridges, or dentures
- Jaw alignment and clicking
- Signs of stress or teeth-grinding
- Comprehensive oral cancer screening
We also recommend regular visits to our hygiene team for a thorough cleaning, stain removal, and expert advice on maintaining a robust at-home oral care routine.
