Why do we recommend a 6-monthly check-up and clean?
For many patients, a regular preventive visit helps keep problems small, treatment simpler, and your smile healthier. Even if nothing hurts, problems can still be developing beneath the surface.
We looked at the research too — recall intervals aren't one-size-fits-all, and the evidence agrees. The Australian Dental Association and international bodies like NICE recommend individualised care based on each patient's risk profile, not a fixed rule for everyone. For many adults, a 6-monthly visit remains a reasonable and practical default, while some patients may need more or less frequent care depending on their needs.
The goal is always the same: catching small problems early, and tailoring your care to you.
Healthy teeth. Healthy gums. Fewer surprises.
