🦷 Why Your NHS Dental Check-Up Timing May Be Different

You may notice your recall appointment isn’t automatically every 6 months anymore. This is due to changes introduced by the Welsh Government and local Health Boards to make NHS dental care more tailored and preventive.

Instead of a one-size-fits-all system, your dentist now sets your check-up interval based on your individual oral health needs.

✨ If you need closer monitoring, you’ll still be seen every 6 months.
✨ If your mouth is healthy and stable, your next visit may be 12 months or up to 2 years away.

The aim is to focus care where it’s needed most while continuing to support everyone’s long-term oral health.

If you’re unsure or have any worries, your dental practice will be happy to advise 🦷😊

Please note that Benllech Dental will be closed on Monday, 10th November due to planned works by SP Energy Networks in our area.

These essential electrical works will temporarily affect our power supply, making it necessary for us to close for the day.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.

If you have a severe dental emergency during this time, please call 01407 830281 for assistance.
A lost filling/crown is not classes as a dental emergency.
