Our Comprehensive Dental Checkup Process in Canberra

What to Expect During Your Dental Checkup in Canberra

At My Dentist Canberra, your dental checkup and clean follows a thorough process designed to ensure optimal oral health:

1. Comprehensive Oral Examination

Our dental practitioners carefully examine your teeth, gums, and mouth to detect any issues early. Using advanced diagnostic technology, we can identify concerns that aren’t visible to the naked eye, including:

  • Tooth decay and cavities
  • Early signs of gum disease
  • Damaged or worn fillings
  • Teeth grinding damage
  • Oral cancer screening
  • Assessment of previous dental work

2. Professional Scaling and Cleaning

Usually using the plaque disclosing solution on all teeth to check for hygiene and plaque control of the patient. Showing the patient the result after disclosing , reviewing oral hygiene, giving them the tooth brushing and flossing instructions. Recommend any other preventive measures that are needed.

Our hygienists use specialised tools to remove plaque and tartar buildup from all surfaces of your teeth, including hard-to-reach areas. This process:

  • Eliminates harmful bacteria
  • Cleans below the gumline
  • Removes surface stains
  • Prevents gum inflammation
  • Reduces bad breath

3. Expert Polishing (EMS Air Flow)

After cleaning, we polish your teeth to:

  • Remove remaining surface stains
  • Give your teeth a smooth, clean feeling EMS Air flow works slightly differently . It starts with polishing first. However we have both systems(traditional scale & clean).
  • Create a brilliant shine
  • Apply protective fluoride treatment
  • Make it harder for plaque to adhere to teeth

4. Personalised Oral Health Plan

Before you leave, your dentist will:

  • Discuss any findings from your examination
  • Provide tailored home care recommendations
  • Answer any questions about your oral health
  • Schedule necessary follow-up treatments
  • Recommend appropriate preventative measures
Our Technological Advancements

Advanced Cleaning with EMS AIRFLOW® Technology

EMS Airflow Canberra is the newest addition to our hygiene toolkit, and patients immediately notice the upgrade. Instead of the familiar scraping and gritty paste, we use a warm jet of water, air and ultra‑fine erythritol powder to gently lift away plaque, early calculus and stubborn stains. This Swiss‑engineered system forms the backbone of Guided Biofilm Therapy, which targets the sticky biofilm that causes tooth decay and gum disease before any instruments touch your teeth.

Common Questions from Our Canberra Patients

Frequently Asked Questions

We recommend a visit every six months for routine checkups and cleaning. However, some patients with specific concerns may benefit from more frequent visits.

No, dental checkups shouldn't be painful. Our gentle approach ensures your comfort throughout the examination and cleaning process.

A standard dental checkup and clean at our Canberra clinic typically takes 45 to 60 minutes, depending on your individual needs.

A standard clean focuses on removing plaque and tartar above the gumline, while a deep clean (scaling and root planing) addresses issues below the gumline for patients with gum disease.

Most private health funds cover preventative dental treatments like checkups and cleans. We offer on-the-spot HICAPS claiming for your convenience.

Bleeding gums often indicate gingivitis or early gum disease, usually caused by plaque buildup. Regular checkups and improved home care can resolve this issue.

Regular brushing, flossing, tongue cleaning, staying hydrated with clean tap water, and using antibacterial mouthwash can help maintain fresh breath.
