Dental Exams and Cleanings in Argüelles, Madrid
Regular dental check-ups and cleanings are the most cost-effective investment in your oral health. They prevent problems before they appear and keep your smile healthy and bright.
The importance of regular check-ups
Regular dental check-ups, combined with professional cleanings, are the foundation of preventive dentistry. Most dental problems —decay, periodontal disease, oral lesions— have a much better prognosis when detected and treated at an early stage.
What does our dental check-up include?
- Complete clinical examination: Assessment of all the teeth, the gums and the soft tissues.
- Periodontal probing: Measuring the depth of the pockets to detect periodontitis.
- Review of existing restorations: Assessment of the condition of fillings and crowns.
- Oral cancer screening: A systematic examination of the oral mucosa.
- Diagnostic radiographs when indicated.
Professional dental cleaning (prophylaxis)
Professional cleaning removes the tartar and bacterial plaque that the brush cannot reach:
- Ultrasonics for supragingival tartar
- Curettes for interdental areas
- Polishing with prophylactic paste
- Personalised hygiene instructions
How often?
We recommend a check-up every 6 months for most patients. Higher-risk patients (smokers, diabetics, periodontal patients) may need more frequent visits.
