A routine dental check-up is the easiest way to prevent cavities, gum disease, and costly dental emergencies. At Seoul Lab Dental Clinic, your visit includes a thorough exam, gentle cleaning, and tailored prevention—delivered with clear explanations and an English-friendly team.

What’s Included in a Check-Up?

  • Comprehensive Exam – Teeth, gums, bite, existing restorations, and TMJ screening
  • Professional Cleaning – Plaque/tartar removal, polishing, and home-care coaching
  • Digital X-Rays (as needed) – Targeted images for decay, cracks, bone levels, or infections
  • Gum Health Assessment – Pocket measurements and bleeding index to detect early gum disease
  • Oral Cancer Screening – Visual and tactile check of oral tissues
  • Personalized Plan – Prevention, minor repairs, or cosmetic options if desired
We adjust the visit for kids, pregnant patients, orthodontic cases, and travelers on tight schedules.

How Often Should I Come In?

Most adults benefit from a check-up every 6 months. If you have gum disease, dry mouth, braces, diabetes, or a history of frequent cavities, we may recommend every 3–4 months until things stabilize.

Signs You Should Book Sooner

  • Chipped fillings, sharp edges, or food trapping
  • Jaw soreness, morning headaches, or grinding/clenching
  • Lingering toothache or swelling

FAQs

Will the cleaning hurt?
We’re gentle and can use topical numbing for sensitive areas.

Do I need X-rays every visit?
Only when clinically indicated—based on your risk and symptoms.

I haven’t seen a dentist in years—can I still book a check-up?
Absolutely. We’ll start with diagnostics and a cleaning plan that suits your comfort and schedule.

Can I combine a check-up with whitening or a veneer consult?
Yes—many patients do a check-up/cleaning first, then plan cosmetic care.
