During your checkup, your dentist will inquire about your overall health, the condition of your teeth since your previous appointment, and any new or altered medicines.

The average dental exam and dental hygiene session last between 45 and 60 minutes. Exams and cleanings tend to be shorter for children. The time of a visit may be affected by the patient’s age, oral health, and frequency of regular dental checkups.

Your dental checkup as a new patient involves x-rays and/or panoramic radiographs to gain a good view of areas you cannot see or feel. Additionally, your dentist will inspect your teeth, gums, and mouth. It is all a part of understanding the larger picture so that you get the necessary treatment.

According to general standards, patients should schedule a professional dental cleaning every six months. While this is good for the majority of individuals, some may need to visit every three months, while others will only need to visit every nine or 12 months.
