Routine dental care in
Why bother with check-ups?
Your smile is the first thing people notice about you – so looking after it now could save you a lot of money in the future. Even if your teeth look fine and you don’t feel any pain, regular check-ups are a must. It means we can catch tooth decay and gum disease in their tracks, long before they do the kind of damage that can impact on your overall health and wellbeing. At Killane Dental Care, we recommend visiting us twice a year for dental check-ups. We greet all our patients with a warm welcome in our bright, comfortable waiting area, before carrying out a thorough assessment of your whole mouth, including teeth, gums, tongue and other soft tissues. We also run an evaluation of the temperomandibular joint (including special tests such as x-rays). Fees and details of any treatment you require will always be clearly explained, and we will never proceed unless you feel completely confident in our care.
