Dental Check-Up and Teeth Cleaning
Home / About Us
At Exquisite Smiles, we believe your dental check-up should be a comfortable, reassuring experience that leaves you feeling good about your oral health. With over 27 years of dental experience, we’ve refined our approach to preventative dentistry to ensure every visit is thorough, gentle, and tailored to your individual needs.
What to Expect During Your Dental Check-Up
Your comprehensive dental check-up begins the moment you step into our welcoming practice. Our experienced team understands that dental visits can cause anxiety, which is why we prioritise your comfort and provide clear communication throughout your appointment.
Professional Dental Examination
Our skilled dentists perform a comprehensive examination of your mouth, teeth, and gums. This detailed assessment helps us identify any potential issues early, when treatment is most effective and minimally invasive. We look for indicators of decay, gum disease, and other oral health concerns that could affect your health and wellbeing.
Dental X-Ray & CBCT Scan Technology
We utilise modern dental x-ray technology, intraoral scans, and dental CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) scans to gain a comprehensive view of your oral health. Our advanced equipment ensures minimal radiation exposure whilst providing detailed diagnostic information.
- A dental CBCT scanner offers a non-invasive, safe, and swift method for obtaining precise 3D images of the upper and lower jaw, including all teeth. Unlike 2D x-rays, it utilises x-rays and a computer to produce accurate, undistorted images to help us detect problems below the surface that aren’t visible during a standard examination, including hidden decay, bone loss, and impacted teeth.
- An intraoral scan uses advanced digital technology to create precise 3D images of your teeth and mouth. This comfortable, quick procedure eliminates messy traditional impressions whilst providing highly accurate measurements for crowns, aligners, and treatment planning.
Professional Teeth Cleaning and Teeth Polishing
Professional teeth cleaning is the cornerstone of your visit. Our gentle yet thorough approach effectively removes plaque and tartar buildup that regular brushing and flossing cannot eliminate. This process, known as dental scaling, involves carefully removing hardened deposits from above and below the gum line, promoting healthier gums and fresher breath.
After scaling, we polish your teeth to remove surface stains, leaving them smooth and clean. This final teeth polishing step not only enhances your smile’s appearance but also helps prevent plaque buildup between visits.
The Importance of Regular Preventative Care
Preventative dentistry forms the foundation of excellent oral hygiene and long-term dental health. Regular dental check-ups every six months allow us to monitor changes in your oral health, provide personalised advice, and address minor concerns before they become major problems.
Our commitment to preventative care means we focus on educating you about proper oral hygiene techniques, dietary choices that support dental health, and lifestyle factors that can impact your smile. This collaborative approach empowers you to maintain optimal oral health between visits.
Gentle Dentistry for Every Patient
We understand that each patient has unique needs and concerns. Whether you’re bringing your children for their first dental check-up or you’re someone who experiences dental anxiety, our compassionate team creates a welcoming environment where you feel heard and supported.
Our modern facility combines state-of-the-art technology with a warm, family-friendly atmosphere. We take time to explain each step of your treatment, answer your questions, and ensure you’re completely comfortable throughout your visit.
