Dental health assessment

At your first appointment with Hadleigh Dental Surgery you’ll receive a full dental health assessment. We like to find out as much as we can about you and your previous dental care. That way, we can offer you the best possible service and expertise.

During a thorough examination using photographs, x-rays and scans your dentist will check the health of your head, neck and inside your mouth. This will provide you with a complete understanding of the health of your mouth and teeth and allows us to recommend a personal dental health plan and recall routines best suited to your individual needs.

Before we begin, you’ll need to complete a medical history to ensure we can also fully cater to your medical needs.

Your dental health assessment will review:

  • Signs of tartar build up and decay
  • Identify any chips and cracks
  • Health of gums
  • Condition and functionality of any existing restorations such as fillings, crowns, bridges or dentures
  • Identify any concerns with your bite
  • Jaw alignment and clicking
  • Signs of stress and teeth grinding
  • Oral cancer screening
  • Cosmetic restoration options

Our dentists are committed to providing you with high-quality dental care, using the latest equipment, materials, procedures, techniques and expert advice to offer you a complete insight into your dental health.

If you would like to book a dental health assessment with Hadleigh Dental Surgery or to find out more about what we could do for you, please give our team a call on 01473 823092.

The experience was great unlike my current dentist and I wish they were based in Ipswich as I would definitely consider moving from my dentist to them. So far both times I have visited I have been seen on my exact appointment time, unlike my current dentist where this never happens.

Listened to my symptoms. Listened to my previous dental experiences and acted accordingly. Explained each and every action to be done as needed. Very attentive when I needed to halt for swallowing, breathing, etc. Offered me the option to wait a while to do the second extraction which I passed on. Over all, very pleased.
