Your First Check-Up and Clean at Profilo° Dental Newcastle 

We know visiting a new dentist can feel like a big step—whether it’s your first time in years or you’re simply new to the area. At Profilo° Dental, we make your first check-up and clean relaxed, thorough, and focused entirely on you. Here’s what you can expect:

1. A Warm Welcome

From the moment you arrive, our team will make sure you feel comfortable. We’ll take a little time to get to know you, discuss your dental history, and understand any concerns or goals you have for your smile.

2. Comprehensive Oral Health Assessment

Your dentist will carry out a detailed examination of your teeth, gums, bite, and jaw. This may include digital X-rays or photos if needed, which help us see what’s happening below the surface. We check for signs of tooth decay, gum disease, worn or cracked teeth, and even early issues that could affect your long-term dental health.

3. Professional Teeth Cleaning

Next, our oral health therapist or dentist will gently remove any plaque and tartar that can’t be brushed away at home. We’ll then polish your teeth to leave them smooth, shiny, and refreshed. This process not only makes your smile feel clean but also helps prevent cavities and gum disease.

4. Personalised Advice & Preventive Care

Once your clean is complete, your dentist will explain everything they’ve found in a clear, straightforward way. If any treatment is needed, we’ll talk you through your options and create a personalised plan that suits your needs, lifestyle, and budget. You’ll also receive tailored advice on brushing, flossing, and diet so you can look after your teeth between visits.

5. Your Questions Answered

We encourage you to ask questions at any point. Whether you’re curious about whitening, worried about sensitivity, or just want to know how to improve your daily routine, we’re here to guide you without judgement or pressure.

Dental checkups and cleans FAQs

Contact

How often should I have a dental check-up and clean?

We recommend visiting every six months for a routine check-up and professional clean. These regular visits allow us to detect any issues early, prevent problems before they develop, and keep your smile looking and feeling its best.

Why are regular dental checkups so important?

Even with great brushing and flossing at home, plaque and tartar can build up in areas that are difficult to reach. A professional clean removes this build-up, helping to prevent gum disease, cavities, and bad breath while leaving your teeth polished and refreshed.

What happens during a check-up and clean?

Your visit includes a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and mouth, followed by a professional clean and polish. We’ll remove plaque and tartar, check for early signs of decay or gum problems, and share simple, tailored tips to help you maintain excellent oral health at home.

Does a dental clean hurt?

Most patients find a clean comfortable and even enjoyable. If you have sensitive teeth or gums, let us know—we use gentle techniques and can make adjustments to keep you at ease throughout your visit.

Are dental check-ups and cleans covered by health funds?

Yes—most health funds include cover for preventive care like check-ups and cleans. We’ll help you make the most of your benefits, and for eligible children, there’s no gap payment under the Medicare Child Dental Benefits Schedule.

When should my child have their first dental check-up?

We recommend children see a dentist by their first birthday or within six months of their first tooth coming through. Early visits help your child feel comfortable in the dental chair and give us the opportunity to check that their teeth and jaws are developing as they should.

How often do kids need dental cleans?

Just like adults, children benefit from a check-up and clean every six months. Regular visits help prevent cavities, build confidence in the dental chair, and ensure their smile stays healthy as they grow.
