Would you know if you had gum disease or that using dental floss daily can help to keep your heart healthy? What about oral cancer – would you know what the signs are?

No need to worry - a visit to The Smile Centre dentists, Chris and Richard, will ensure that a thorough dental examination detects any problems with your teeth, gums and oral tissues.

Dental x-rays are taken to discover what the naked eye is unable to see – in between teeth and under existing fillings; bone levels supporting the roots of the teeth; unerupted teeth; abnormalities of the jaw and cysts, to name but a few.

Don’t be concerned when the dentist puts his fingers in your ears or the hygienist asks you to stick your tongue out – they’re just checking to see if you have problems with your jaw joint and for early signs of oral cancer 

Feel positive, relaxed and reassured about your health because we provide oral screening at every exam for early identification of serious conditions.
