What are check-ups & exams?

Regular dental check-ups let our dentists spot and treat problems early — from decay to gum disease and oral-health concerns. Most adults are seen every 6–12 months.

Check-ups & Exams at our practice

Regular dental check-ups are the simplest way to keep your teeth and gums healthy and to catch small problems early, while they’re still easy to put right. At Portland Family Dental Centre on Portland Road, your dentist examines your teeth, gums and soft tissues, looks for early signs of decay or gum disease, and takes X-rays when they’re needed. This comes under NHS Band 1 (£27.90).

Most adults are seen every six to twelve months, depending on how healthy your mouth is, and your dentist will suggest an interval that’s right for you. Children and nervous patients are always welcome, and getting back into a regular routine usually makes future visits far easier.

We’re near Hucknall town centre, with the tram and rail links close by, so a check-up is easy to fit around work or the school run for patients across Butler’s Hill, Broomhill and Linby.

We’re currently accepting new NHS and private patients. Call 0115 963 2525 to book, or see how to register as a new patient.
