How often should you see your dentist?
We recommend that you should see your dentist at least every 12 months for a full oral health assessment and examination.
We also recommend that you see your hygienist at least every 6 months. Your hygienist is skilled in cleaning teeth, providing oral health care education and administering other treatments like teeth whitening. Regular hygiene checks and removal of plaque, calculus and bacteria reduces your risk of gingivitis, inflammation of the gum, infection and other periodontal diseases.
