Everyday & family

Small conversations.
A longer view.

Make space for the everyday questions. Preventive care is a conversation about keeping informed, understanding changes and planning appropriate follow-up.

Understanding comes before a routine.

A check-up is an opportunity to discuss what has changed and what you would like to understand. The right approach and timing should be individual, rather than assumed from a general website.

Changes worth mentioning
Bring questions about anything you have noticed since your last dental conversation.
Everyday routines
Ask for guidance that takes your circumstances and current habits into account.
Your next review
Discuss the reasons behind any proposed follow-up and what it would involve.

Understanding, one step at a time.

  1. 01

    Talk it through.

    Begin with your priorities, questions and what would help you feel informed.

  2. 02

    See the options.

    Ask about the reasons, alternatives and limitations of a proposed approach.

  3. 03

    Make room to decide.

    Understand the commitment and costs, then consider the next step.

Questions worth asking.

How often should I have a check-up?

That depends on an individual assessment. Ask your dental professional to explain a review interval that is appropriate for you.

Will every visit be the same?

The conversation and any proposed assessment should respond to your needs. This concept does not specify a standard appointment package.

A first question
is enough.

You don't need to arrive with all the answers. Give your next conversation a place to begin.
