DENTAL EXAMINATION - What do we check?
1. Medical history - it is important to provide us with a comprehensive medical history, including all current medications, to ensure your safety
2. Social history - we will check your occupation, smoking status, alcohol intake - these give us an indication of your lifestyle and levels of stress
3. Dental history - how often do you attend, and how do you currently look after your teeth at home. What advice can we give to improve your current regime or ensure it is the most efficient for your continued oral health
4. Dietary information - What is the frequency of your acid/sugar attacks to the teeth? This will help us determine certain risk factors
5. Extra oral examination / Intra oral examination and oral cancer screening will be performed at every checkup.
