Dental examinations are routine appointments designed to monitor and maintain your oral health. During each visit at McIntyre, Corbet & Associates, your dentist will carry out a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, tongue, and soft tissues, checking for early signs of decay, gum disease, infections, enamel wear, and even oral cancer. We take X-rays when needed to identify issues not visible to the eye, such as problems between teeth or under existing fillings.

We also assess your bite, jaw joint, and any signs of clenching or grinding, and discuss any concerns you may have whether it’s tooth sensitivity, bleeding gums, or cosmetic goals. Where appropriate, your visit may be paired with a professional hygiene clean or advice on improving your at-home oral care.

These check-ups are vital in catching small issues early and helping you avoid more complex treatment later. Combined with our accessible Maintenance Plan, we make it simple to stay on top of your oral health with confidence and ease.

Our dental plan includes regular twice-yearly comprehensive examinations, oral cancer screening as standard, gum health assessments, and any necessary X-rays—all fully covered. We strongly encourage all our patients to join the plan to ensure consistent, high-quality care and peace of mind. As a bonus, children under 18 are seen free of charge on the NHS if their parent or guardian is a member, keeping the whole family protected, supported, and smiling confidently!
