Keeping Your Smile in Check

Why Keep Up with Check-ups?

Not everything that happens in your mouth is obvious or painful. Cracks, gum changes, and early decay can develop quietly — and by the time you notice, fixing them can be more complicated (and costly).

Regular check-ups give us the chance to spot issues early, track changes over time, and give you all the options before things get urgent.

If it’s been a while since your last visit, that’s fine — we’re here to help you get back on track.

What We Look For

A check-up at Switch Dental is thorough, but relaxed. Using digital x-rays, photos, and our 3D intraoral scanners (CEREC Primescan and TRIOS) [insert photo/video placeholder], we can see more, show you more, and keep a clear record for the future.
We check for:
  • Signs of tooth wear, cracks, and decay
  • Gum health and bone support
  • Clenching or grinding damage
  • Oral cancer and soft tissue changes
  • Alignment shifts or crowding
  • The condition of existing fillings, crowns, and bridges

The benefit of digital scans is that we can compare visits over time, even spotting changes too small to see with the naked eye.

Prevention Your Way

Prevention is about keeping your teeth and gums in the best shape possible. For some, that means a routine clean and polish. For others, it might include extra steps like fluoride treatments, protective sealants, or a nightguard for grinding.

We’ll outline the options and explain the pros and cons so you can choose what’s right for you. Whether you like to keep things simple or take a more proactive approach, we’ll support you with care that suits your needs.
