Why are regular check-ups important?
Protecting your smile for the long term
Routine check-ups are key to keeping your teeth and gums healthy long-term. By spotting issues early, we can often treat them before they become painful or costly.
Preventive care also reduces the risk of gum disease, tooth loss and oral health conditions that can affect your overall wellbeing. Regular visits help you stay confident about your smile and in control of your dental health.

Frequently asked questions in Kettering.
How often should I have a check-up?
For most patients, we recommend a dental check-up every six months to maintain optimal oral health. However, everyone’s needs are different. Your dentist will assess your individual situation, including your dental history, current health and risk factors, to recommend the best check-up schedule for you. Some people may benefit from more frequent visits, while others with excellent oral health might need fewer.
Does a dental check-up hurt?
No, dental check-ups at Kettering Dental and Implant Clinic are designed with patient comfort in mind, with a process that is gentle and non-invasive. If you feel anxious or sensitive, please tell us, we can adjust the pace of your appointment and provide reassurance every step of the way. Our goal is to make your visit as relaxed and stress-free as possible.
Is it OK to see the dentist only when something hurts?
It’s best not to wait until you experience pain or problems. Many dental issues develop silently at first, without obvious symptoms. By attending regular check-ups, we can catch problems early, when treatment is simpler, less invasive and more affordable. Preventive care helps you avoid discomfort and more complex procedures down the line.
What’s the difference between a check-up and a hygiene appointment?
A dental check-up is a thorough examination of your teeth, gums and mouth to spot any potential issues and monitor your overall oral health. A hygiene appointment focuses on professional cleaning, removing plaque and tartar build-up that can’t be cleared by brushing alone. Both are important and often scheduled together to keep your smile healthy and bright.
