There are some events in your life that you should avoid like the plague in south east London, but a dental check-up most certainly isn’t one of them. This is the time when you can find out just how well you have been looking after yourself and if not, find out how you can improve on what you do at home. Dental check-ups are as important as anything else that you do throughout the year, and skipping one would be as dangerous as running across the road blindfolded. For all the effort you may have put in since your last check-up to keep your teeth clean and healthy, you may have forgotten a series of weekends when you may have got a little worse for wear and forgotten to clean your teeth and unless you have an x-ray machine in the garage, you may be oblivious to the damage you may have done during your ‘time off’. At a check-up, your dentist applies a set of rules in order to check for problems in your mouth. An x-ray will first determine the extent of any damage done whilst you’ve been partying and then if need be, fix it. Your dentist will then roam about your mouth checking for signs of wear and tear, and again, fix them, give you a quick spit and polish and send you on your way. It should be time well spent and the two of you should indulge in dialogue: the dentist telling you off and then you apologizing!
