A Check-up involves the Dentist examining your teeth, gum and overall oral health and hygiene. At this visit we will also take xrays to determine whether there is decay or any other potential problems.

Most Patients prefer to schedule an appointment with our Hygienist for a cleaning on the same day.

The oral hygiene will remove all calculus (calcified plaque) and external staining. It is crucial that the calculus and bacteria is removed every couple of months to prevent inflammation and gingival disease. 

We are a private dental practice and not contracted to any medical aids schemes. Accounts are settled on the day of treatment. We will provide you with all the necessary documents and information to claim back from your medical aid. We accept all major debit and credit cards.

There are several factors that play a role, including the size and extend of the damage to the tooth.
