Regular dental check-ups are key to preventing tooth loss and health problems.

When carried out around twice a year, a dental examination allows your dentist to identify any underlying problems, sometimes using an x-ray, that may cause problems in the future. In this way, minor treatment can be carried out to correct a problem before it becomes more challenging to treat.

This is not only beneficial in terms of convenience but also cost-effective.

Research increasingly points to a proven connection between oral health and general health.

Because regular dental check-ups play an essential role in preventing dental problems, they can also be considered to be crucial to reducing the risk of chronic health conditions connected with poor oral health – including heart disease, stroke, pneumonia and Type 2 diabetes, to name a few.
