From check-up to treatment plan
During a regular check-up, the dentist examines your teeth and discusses your daily oral care. If treatment is needed, you receive an explanation of the options.
What should you discuss with the dentist?
- The expected results and possible risks.
- The number of treatment sessions and their expected duration.
- The costs and any estimate.
If a referral is needed
For specialised treatment, the dentist may refer you to a colleague, for example for oral surgery, orthodontics, implantology or gnathology.
Your treatment records
The practice records information about your teeth and treatments in your patient record. Would you like records sent to another practitioner? Discuss your request with reception.
