Keep your smile healthy with preventive care
Keep your smile healthy with preventive care
Saving smiles when it matters most
Regular dental visits for a lifetime of healthy smiles
Don’t invite the tooth fairy! Keep your teeth strong with regular check-ups and professional cleans at Moorooka Square Dental. Visiting every six months helps catch problems early, before they turn into something bigger. A small investment of time now keeps your smile healthy for the future.
A professional clean also clears away plaque and tartar that brushing can’t reach — preventing cavities, protecting your gums, and leaving your smile fresh and polished. Our friendly team makes every visit comfortable and supportive, so looking after your oral health feels simple and reassuring.
Why stay regular with dental check-ups
Done optimally, dental care is preventative. Many dental issues, such as cavities or gum disease, can develop quietly without easily noticeable symptoms. By the time pain or discomfort appears, treatment needs may be more complex or invasive. When you opt for regular check-ups, we catch problems early and keep your mouth healthy. During your visit, we will:
- Check for tooth decay, cracks, or wear that may not yet cause pain
- Monitor gum health to prevent or manage gum disease
- Evaluate jawbone health and screen for bone loss
- Identify signs of infection or oral disease, including abscesses or cysts
- Screen for oral cancer and other soft tissue changes
- Assess bite and alignment to spot issues that may affect chewing or cause jaw discomfort
- Review existing dental work, such as fillings, crowns, or implants, to ensure they remain strong and functional
- Take X-rays or digital scans (when needed) for a clear picture of hidden issues
- Provide personalised advice on brushing, flossing, diet, and lifestyle habits that affect oral health
With consistent check-ups, you can prevent bigger problems, reduce long-term costs, and maintain strong, healthy teeth for years to come.
How we do your check-up and clean
When you come in for a routine visit, we want you to leave with a smile that feels fresh, healthy, and well cared for. A typical appointment includes:
1. Comprehensive oral exam – We carefully check your teeth, gums, bite, and soft tissues to detect any early signs of problems.
2. Digital imaging – With advanced intraoral camera and OPG X-ray, we capture precise images of your teeth and jaw to support accurate diagnosis and personalised treatment planning.
3. Gentle scale and clean – Plaque and tartar are thoroughly removed from areas your toothbrush can’t reach, followed by a polish that leaves your teeth feeling fresh and smooth.
4. Fluoride treatment – A protective fluoride application helps strengthen enamel and reduce the risk of cavities.
5. Personalised advice – We’ll share practical tips on brushing, flossing, and diet to help you maintain great oral health between visits.
Every step optimises your comfort and oral health, giving you professional care that feels easy and keeps your smile at its best.

How long between visits?
As a general guideline, most people benefit from a dental check-up and professional clean every six months. These routine visits help us detect early signs of decay, gum disease, or other issues before they become more serious.
However, the ideal frequency can vary from person to person. If you have a history of gum disease, frequent cavities, wear braces, or have certain medical conditions (like diabetes), you may need to see us more often. On the other hand, patients with excellent oral health and low risk factors may only need yearly visits.
At Moorooka Square Dental, we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. During your appointment, we’ll assess your oral health and recommend a personalised schedule to keep your smile healthy for the long term.
