During your first visit to the dental clinic, you will typically have a comprehensive oral exam and dental cleaning. The dentist will examine your teeth and gums, take X-rays if necessary, and discuss any oral health concerns you may have. You may also have a dental cleaning, which involves removing plaque and tartar from your teeth.

We recommend that you visit the dentist for a check-up every six months. However, the frequency of your visits may depend on your oral health needs and your dentist's recommendation.

• What should I do if I have a dental emergency?

If you have a dental emergency, such as a toothache, a broken tooth, or a knocked-out tooth, you should contact your dental clinic immediately. Most dental clinics have emergency services available, and they can provide you with the appropriate treatment as soon as possible.

• How can I prevent cavities and gum disease?

You can prevent cavities and gum disease by practicing good oral hygiene, such as brushing your teeth twice a day, flossing daily, and using mouthwash. You should also avoid sugary and acidic foods and drinks and schedule regular dental check-ups.

• What is the best way to whiten my teeth?
