Oral Health Assessment
Our practice is strongly committed to the philosophy of preventative dentistry. The foundation of which is our Comprehensive Oral Health Assessment (OHA). Our proactive approach will identify your risk of future dental problems e.g. gum disease, decay or tooth wear and help prevent them before the need for dental treatment.
Each patient undergoes a thorough annual OHA which consists of a comprehensive medical and social assessment and a detailed oral examination. This allows us to measure and score your current level of oral health, identify those areas where you require treatment and establish all your monitoring and education needs.
We will then design your personal care plan enabling you to understand your role in achieving a high level of oral health. This will ultimately minimise the possible need for future invasive dental treatment. Your progress will be reviewed at your six month appointment with our team.
