One of the best ways to protect your teeth, oral health and overall well-being is to visit your Sherwood dentist every six months for cleans and exams.

Routine Cleans and Check-Ups

Routine check-ups and teeth cleans are the foundation of your healthy smile and a cornerstone of our dental practice.

How Often Should I Visit the Dentist?

With consistent visits to our dental clinic every six months, we can help healthy patients protect their teeth, oral health, and overall well-being.

Patients who are managing gum disease may need regular dental cleanings every three to four months to help them manage their condition.

Our experienced dentists take the time to understand your oral health history, lifestyle and smile goals before recommending a customised dental hygiene schedule that works for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

A routine check-up and clean is the cornerstone of good oral health, yet many patients are not quite sure what to expect when they sit down in the dental chair. At Jansz Dental, we want every visit to feel straightforward and comfortable, so here is a friendly guide to what your appointment typically involves.

What to Expect During Your Routine Clean and Exam

Your visit will generally cover two key components—a thorough examination and a professional clean. During the examination, Drs Jeremy and Willem Jansz will:

Check each tooth carefully for signs of decay, damage or wear
Examine your gums for any indicators of gum disease such as redness, swelling or bleeding
Assess your bite and jaw function and look for signs of grinding or clenching
Screen for early signs of oral cancer, which is a quick and painless but vitally important part of the check-up
Review any existing restorations such as fillings, crowns or bridges to ensure they remain in good condition
Take X-rays if needed to identify any issues that are not visible to the naked eye

Your professional clean will then be carried out by one of our skilled practitioners, who will:

Remove plaque and tartar buildup from areas that are difficult to reach with a toothbrush and floss
Polish your teeth to remove surface stains and leave your smile feeling fresh
Floss between your teeth to ensure a thorough clean

Before you leave, your dentist will talk you through their findings, answer any questions you have and give you personalised advice on caring for your teeth and gums at home. If any issues are identified, they will discuss your treatment options clearly and without any pressure.

Understanding Gum Disease

Periodontal (gum) disease is an inflammatory response due to bacteria accumulating in and around your gums. If left untreated, this inflammatory response can cause a breakdown in your gums and bone that support your teeth. If left untreated, gum disease may lead to eventual tooth loss.

The same bacteria that cause gum disease can also enter your bloodstream and travel to other parts of your body. Gum disease is associated with other non-dental related conditions:

Cardiovascular health
Diabetes
Respiratory health

Gum disease continues to show links with many other non-dental related conditions and so maintaining good gum health is crucial to good overall health.

With your mouth as the gateway to your body, it has never been more important to protect your dental health and overall well-being through routine exams and teeth cleans.
