Dental check-up - the foundation of oral health
During the dental check-up, you will get an assessment of the health of your mouth and teeth from the dentist, as well as a recommendation for further measures. A dental check-up is a painless examination, and there is no need to do any treatment in connection with it.

- Even if there you have no acute problems in your mouth, you should have regular dental check-ups. Many oral conditions are asymptomatic for a long time and can only be detected during a dental check-up.
- Dental check-ups are painless and you do not require any treatments.
- Have you missed your dental check-ups? It is not an issue for us if your teeth are in bad shape.
Preparing for a dental check-up
Many people brush their teeth just before a dental appointment as a courtesy to the dentist. It's a nice idea, but brushing your teeth is not necessary when preparing for a dental check-up.
Rather follow your usual dental routine – then we'll see how your self-care habits affect your teeth.
When you first come to us for a dental check-up, take some time to fill in the patient information form before your appointment. If you take medication regularly, you should bring a list of medicines with you to the appointment.
Many people are nervous about opening their mouth at the dentist. We will never judge your oral care. We prefer to focus on tomorrow's good self-care and help you with that. So come as you are!

Hammastarkastus alkaa jutellen. Haluamme tietää yleissairauksistasi, lääkityksistäsi ja allergioistasi. Olemme kiinnostuneita kuulemaan, kuinka hoidat hampaitasi kotioloissa – tuomitsematta tapojasi.
- Tunnustelu ja kuulostelu. Hammaslääkäri tunnustelee purentalihakset ja imusolmukkeet. Leukanivelten naksunnat ja rohinat kirjataan muistiin.
- Limakalvot. Seuraavaksi hammaslääkäri siirtyy suun sisäpuolelle ja käy läpi suun limakalvot.
- Purenta. Sitten on aika panna hampaat yhteen. Hammaslääkäri tarkastelee ylä- ja alaleukojen suhdetta ja hampaiden keskinäistä sijaintia.
- Hampaat. Hammaslääkäri käy jokaisen hampaasi läpi kevyesti painellen ja rapsutellen. Kuituvalolla katsotaan hampaan läpi.
- Ikenet. Ikenet tutkitaan hammasvälejä ja ientaskuja myöten. Jos sinulla on ientulehdusta, saattaa ikenien tutkiminen tuntua hiukan ikävältä – tarvittaessa turvaudumme puudutukseen ja tutkimme ikenet erillisellä käynnillä.
Muutaman vuoden välein, yksilöllisen tarpeen arvion jälkeen, hampaistosta on hyvä ottaa lisämaksulliset röntgenkuvat, jotta hammaslääkäri näkee piilossa oleviin hammasväleihin ja paikkojen saumoihin.
Tarkastuksen päätteeksi hammaslääkäri kertoo sinulle kaiken, mitä suustasi selvisi hammastarkastuksessa. Sovimme kanssasi mahdollisesta jatkohoidosta ja annamme siitä kustannusarvion.
Saat juuri sinulle sopivat neuvot hampaidesi omahoitoon kotona. Lopuksi hammaslääkäri kertoo, milloin on seuraavan hammastarkastuksen aika. Sinun ei tarvitse kiireisessä arjessasi huolehtia ajankohdan muistamisesta, sillä lähetämme sinulle kutsun. Voimme myös varata ajan vaikka saman tien.
