How Often Should You Get a Dental Check-Up & Clean?
We recommend a check-up and clean every 6 months for most patients. However, some individuals may need more frequent visits based on their oral health needs.
- Every 3-4 months – If you have gum disease, high plaque buildup, or a history of dental issues.
- Every 6 months – For general maintenance and prevention.
- Annually – If you have excellent oral hygiene and minimal dental concerns.
Our dentists at Bigger Smiles will personalise your dental care plan based on your needs.
