12 Point Health Check

At Kent Smile Studio, we acknowledge that your oral health and smile depends on different aspects and areas of your mouth.

To assess the health of your entire mouth, we provide a 12 Point Check. It helps us lower your risk for future problems and prevent them at an early stage. As a standard, we also provide an oral cancer check when we examine your oral health.

12 Point Check

1. Checking in with you

Our friendly dental professionals will start by asking you a series of questions regarding your oral health.

2. Addressing your concerns

If you do have any worries or dental problems, your friendly Kent Smile Studio dentist will actively discuss them with you in an understanding manner.

3. Checking your overall health

We will enquire about your general health to find out if any health issues are impacting your oral health, and if you require any medication.

4. How you feel about your smile

We will ask you about your thoughts, feelings and opinions on your smile. How do you feel you would like your smile to improve?

5. Tooth decay check

We will examine your teeth to check for any decay, damage or other potential issues.

6. Dental work history

We will examine any previous dental work done to check if it still benefits your oral health to its full potential.

7. Gum check

We will also examine your gums to determine if there are any early signs of gum disease.

8. Plaque management

If we identify any plaque on your teeth, we will discuss how to manage this problem sufficiently.

9. Soft tissue check

We will examine the soft tissues in your mouth, including your tongue and cheeks.

10. External mouth check

The outside of your mouth will also be checked.

11. Examination of hard to reach areas

To maintain our thorough approach to your oral health, we will check the areas surrounding your teeth as there may be potential problems hidden in these hard to view areas.

12. Jawbone check

Your jawbone will be assessed as it plays a big part in your oral health, holding your teeth firmly in position.
