General Check Up and Clean
General Check Up and Clean
At The Smile Artisans, every patient is welcomed with personalised care that prioritises ethics, precision, and your long-term oral health. Your general check-up and clean is never rushed. Our experienced dentists who also train other professionals across Australia and overseas take the time to listen, explain, and ensure you feel confident at every step.
With QIP-accredited systems and advanced imaging technology, we deliver modern dental care backed by global education and genuine attention to detail.
Why Regular Checkups Are Worth It
We catch early signs that others might miss
Tiny cracks, cavities, or early-stage gum issues can often go unnoticed. Early detection helps prevent discomfort and complex dental treatments later.
Consistent care helps prevent avoidable dental costs
Delaying routine check-ups might feel easier, but early care often means avoiding larger, more expensive procedures down the track.
Professional cleaning maintains stable gum health
Gum disease can cause tooth loss if left untreated. Regular professional cleanings support firm, healthy gums and prevent infection from taking hold.
Subtle changes are monitored over time
Routine visits let us track bite alignment, enamel wear, or jaw movement to ensure your care stays tailored and effective.
Fresh breath and a lighter smile
Plaque and tartar accumulation can lead to bad breath. A thorough clean leaves your mouth refreshed, polished, and more confident.
You’ll feel good smiling again
Even without cosmetic treatments, a consistent clean gives your smile a natural brightness that feels good and looks even better.
What You Can Expect in Your Appointment
- Your visit begins with a thorough assessment of your teeth, gums, bite, and jaw using advanced digital imaging.
- We capture clear intraoral photographs to walk you through any concerns and ensure you feel involved in your care.
- A Prophy Jet cleaning gently removes stains and smooths the tooth surface for a fresher, brighter result.
- Fluoride treatment at the end helps protect against decay, ease sensitivity, and strengthen enamel between visits.
Preventive Maintenance Program to Support Ongoing Care
We know life gets busy, so our Preventive Maintenance Program tracks your needs and schedules routine cleans with reminders to help you stay ahead of dental concerns and protect your long-term health.
