Dental check-ups are a vital part of our overall dental health and well-being and can prevent more serious problems. At Cornerstone Clinic Dubai, we have a highly experienced general dentist, Dr Carla Cyrino, with over 20 years of experience in Europe, who will be able to help you keep your teeth and smile in top condition and maintain optimal oral hygiene.
A dental check-up is more than just checking if our teeth are healthy. During a check-up, Dr Carla Cyrino will not only assess your teeth and gums but also look for signs of problems in your overall health, as your mouth can provide clues about what is happening in the rest of your body. Below, we have listed some of the important reasons a dental check-up should be a habitual practice and not just for emergencies.
During a dental check-up, your dentist will assess the condition of your teeth and gums, identifying any issues before they develop into something more serious. This could be anything from decaying teeth to gum disease, cavities, or even plaque build-up. Problems identified early need less work and will cause us less pain and cost in the future.
Regular dental check-ups not only prevent future dental complications, but they also help prevent bad breath and teeth staining. Plaque build-up around the teeth and gums can cause bad breath, and hardened plaque can only be removed with a professional scale and polish. Our teeth also stain due to the food and drink we consume; regular scaling and polishing reduces the build-up of stains, helping us keep our smile fresh and bright.
During your dental check up your dentist will examine your existing fillings and implants to check they are in good condition. If anything is wrong, your dentist will be able to fix any small issues or even recommend having further fillings or treatment to prevent any infections and more serious problems from arising.
During your dental check-up, dentist, Dr Carla Cyrino, will thoroughly clean your teeth with a scale and polish, removing stubborn plaque and stains with professional dental instruments. Your dentist will then examine your teeth, checking for any root decay, tooth decay, gum disease, or bone disease, as well as evaluating if any restoration or replacements are needed to existing fillings or implants. X-rays may also be used to detect problems that cannot be seen with the naked eye. Finally, after assessing the health of your teeth and gums, your dentist may provide suggestions on how to improve your habits, such as brushing techniques, flossing, and dietary changes, to promote optimal oral health.
