Why You Need Regular Dental Check-Ups in Manchester
Dental check-up costs might appear avoidable — particularly if you’re not experiencing problems with your teeth or gums right now. But they could be dwarved by the cost of extensive treatments if hidden problems go undetected.
That’s why check-ups make sense — for both your wellbeing and your wallet.

What Happens During Dental Check-Ups?
When you book a check-up with Re-Ignite Dental, you’re guaranteed professional advice designed to prevent future dental issues or protect work already done on your teeth.
Our dentists and dental hygienists will also show you ways to prevent gum disease and other serious issues. This often involves the demonstration of best-practice toothbrushing.
While dental check-ups can differ, depending on what your dentist discovers, they tend to include the following steps.
Examination of Your Teeth: Dentists carefully examine your teeth to check for signs of decay, cavities or damage. They assess the condition of each tooth individually to spot the tell-tale signs of common problems.
Examination of Your Gums: Your dentist will inspect your gums for signs of gum disease (gingivitis or periodontitis). The signs of this potentially serious ailment include redness, swelling, bleeding and pockets between the teeth and gums.
Oral Cancer Screening: Dentists may perform an oral cancer screening by examining the soft tissues in your mouth, including your tongue, cheeks and the roof of your mouth.
Cleaning and Scaling: Your dentist or dental hygienist may perform a thorough cleaning of your teeth to remove plaque and tartar. They may also perform scaling to remove calculus deposits from below the gumline.
Restoration Work: If your dentist notices damage, you will be booked in for further treatments, including fillings and composite bonding to address damaged areas.
Discussion: Your dentist will also discuss effective oral hygiene practices, including brushing, flossing and your diet. There will also be an opportunity to ask questions about future treatments or your overall dental health.
