Dental Check-Ups Hervey Bay

A timely dental check-up is key to maintaining excellent oral health and preventing issues before they escalate. At Smile Dental Hervey Bay (formally White Dental Co.), we strive to make every check-up comfortable, thorough, and tailored to your needs.

Your appointment begins with a friendly conversation with our dentist. If you’re a regular patient, this is a great opportunity for a quick catch-up, and if you’re new to our practice, it’s a chance to feel at ease and get to know our team.

During your dental check-up, we’ll discuss: 

    • Your general health, including any recent health concerns.
    • Any medications you’re currently taking.
    • Whether you’ve noticed any changes or problems with your teeth, gums, or overall health.
    • Any questions or concerns you may have about your dental care.

Our team at Smile Dental Hervey Bay is here to ensure you receive personalised, professional care at every visit. Book your next dental check-up with us to keep your smile healthy and bright!

Comprehensive Dental Check-Ups in Hervey Bay

At Smile Dental Hervey Bay (formally White Dental Co.), our comprehensive dental check-ups go beyond the basics to thoroughly assess your oral health. During your appointment, our dentist will carefully examine your teeth, gums, and other factors that can impact your smile.

Here’s what you can expect during a check-up:

    • Oral Inspection: A thorough examination of the lining of your mouth to detect any potential issues, including early signs of oral cancer.
    • Gum Health Review: A gentle assessment of your gums to identify signs of gingivitis, such as bleeding, or gum disease, like the presence of pockets.
    • Saliva Evaluation: Checking your saliva to ensure it supports a healthy oral environment.
    • Intraoral Camera Imaging: Photos may be taken to create a visual record of areas at risk. These images can be reviewed during future appointments to monitor for changes.

Will Dental X-Rays Be Taken During a Check-Up?

If needed, low-radiation digital dental x-rays will be taken during your check-up. These x-rays help identify hidden problems like cavities, bone loss, or impacted teeth, ensuring a complete assessment of your oral health.

Professional Dental Cleaning

Many people find it challenging to completely prevent tartar buildup on their teeth and gums, even with regular brushing and flossing. At Smile Dental Hervey Bay, our professional dental cleaning services help keep your smile healthy and bright.

    • Tartar Removal: Using an advanced ultrasonic scaler, we gently and effectively remove tartar from your teeth.
    • Polishing & Fluoride Treatment: If plaque or superficial stains are present, we polish them away to restore your teeth’s natural shine. For patients at risk of tooth decay, we may apply fluoride varnish to strengthen your enamel and protect against cavities.

After your cleaning, we’ll likely review your home care routine and provide personalised tips to enhance your oral hygiene experience.

Treatment Options Explained with Care

If your dental check-up reveals the need for further treatment, we’ll take the time to explain your options in detail. Our team will answer any questions you may have about the recommended treatments and ensure you feel confident moving forward.
