The Dental Check-up

At the Myton Park Dental Centre, we aim to give the gold standard when we take you through our comprehensive new patient check-up.

We have examined all the evidence and benchmarked best practice across the world to ensure that when you see us for the first time, your dental check-up is second to none.

At your first appointment you will no doubt notice the comfortable and clean clinical environment of our dental clinic. You will be asked to fill out a comprehensive medical evaluation form which allows us to understand your health better so that we can ensure that your dental care is individually suited to you.

When you enter the dental surgery it is important to us that you have the opportunity to feel relaxed and comfortable. Our calming colour scheme and cutting edge equipment creates the right atmosphere and our caring experienced dentists are all trained to give you room to breath – so we know what you really want for your smile.

Once you have had the opportunity to get to know your dentist it is time to lie back and relax so that the dental check-up can begin. As we are treating a person and not just a mouth, your general health will form an integral part of the evaluation process. Certain systemic conditions such as vitamin deficiencies and anaemia for example can show signs in the mouth and on occasions a change in your mouth can be the first sign of an illness you were not aware of.

We use state-of-the-art technology such as an intra-oral camera to take individual images of your mouth and teeth. Our chair based screens allow you to look at these in comfort whilst your dentist explains the details to you. We can even print pictures so that you can take images home with you to help you decide what is best for you.

Comprehensive dental X-rays are included in the cost of your new patient check-up. X-rays allow your dentist to assess areas that are not visible to the naked eye such as underneath your gums and right between your teeth. We also have a dental OPG machine which allows a very detailed X-ray of your full jaw, should this be required.

Your dental condition is recorded on our cutting edge dental computer software and, once your dentist has fully evaluated your dental health, you will receive a customised treatment plan offering all the options to help you improve your oral health. It is important to you that we have totally transparent pricing. With this in mind, your dental estimate is very clear about the cost of each part of your dental treatment.
