Dental Check-ups
Many patients avoid a visit to the dentist until there is a painful situation or urgent reason to visit. A regular dental check-up is one of the best means of preventing minor dental concerns from escalating into serious issues. The Routine Dental Check-up is in fact the most important dental treatment, as it can assess your dental and oral health, and spot any potentially harmful situations early. By identifying problems early, we can prevent them from developing into more serious issues. The dental check-up is also an opportunity to discuss any fears you may have regarding the dentist. Our caring dentists will be happy to discuss any concerns you may have.
Cancer Screening
One of the very important aspects of Dental Check-ups is the cancer screening that we provide. We will scan your mouth for any worrying signs of cancer, so in the case that anything is located, we can act quickly.
What is a routine check-up ?
At Forster Court Dental we do a thorough 16-point dental check-up where we will examine the health of the whole mouth. At the dental check-up we will :
Perform an Oral Cancer Screen
Examine the overall health of your gums for any signs of inflammation, bleeding, bone loss
Examine your teeth and dental restorations
Examine your soft tissues including your tongue, lips, cheeks, glands and oral mucosa
Examine your jaw joints
Examine your teeth for wear and signs of parafunction
Examine between your teeth and under your teeth by taking low dose digital X-rays where necessary.
At the end of your examination we will discuss our findings with you and design a treatment plan tailored to suit you. All costs will be discussed with you.
How often should I see the dentist? Answer : At least every 6 months
Each member of the family should be seen by a dentist at least once every 6 months to ensure that good oral health is maintained. If you would like to make an appointment contact us today.
What is a consultation with your dentist?
At Forster Court Dental a dental check-up encompasses a consultation. At your dental check up you can discuss any advanced or extensive dental treatment you are interested in including cosmetics, orthodontics, options for missing teeth and more. We also work with very trusted specialists and if we feel you need to be referred to a specialist, we will discuss this with you at your check-up.
Future Treatment
If a particular treatment is needed, such as tooth fillings, root canal treatment or further hygienist appointments/ cleaning, we will create a treatment plan with you.
There is no one-size-fits-all treatment solution for oral health care. Your dentist will develop a treatment plan that will address your unique concerns.
Dental Hygiene
Oral Health is our priority at Forster Court Dental and oral hygiene plays a pivotal role in that. Our hygienist Rhona will guide you and help you to achieve healthy teeth and gums through a combination of advice and tailored cleanings to suit your individual needs.
I have had a number of procedures completed at Foster Court Dental Clinic and I would highly recommend this practice.
The staff are friendly and helpful and were happy to check my PRSI entitlements for treatments.
The dentist was very clear on what procedures were needed and the treatments were completed hassle-free and very professionally.
