Patients may miss their scheduled biannual dental check-up for a wide variety of reasons, an example of which may be due to a forgetful nature!

Unfortunately for many however, this may simply not be enough to stay on top of their dental health. Despite <strong>Meavy Way Dental Practice <\/strong>and many other modern surgeries like us expressing the importance of preventive dentistry, many individuals may be unsure of what to expect from a visit to our clinic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-5lm7s\" class=\"xVISr Y9Dpf bCMSCT OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\"><strong>What should patients expect from a biannual visit to our dentist in Plymouth?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-1ki0d\" class=\"xVISr Y9Dpf bCMSCT OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">At our surgery within Plymouth we take great pride in the high standard of dentistry we choose to offer to our new, and pre-registered patients within the walls of our modern dental clinic. With this responsibility in the forefront of our minds therefore, we hand-pick the very best team of dental professionals whilst only using the highest quality dental materials and embracing the latest advancements within dental technology. This is to ensure our patients achieve the best possible results for their smile, every time. With regards to what to expect from a visit to our dental practice, we choose to adopt a patient-centred dental approach which essentially means we treat every dental case as entirely unique, despite this stance however, there are several standardised procedures we typically follow within a dental appointment at our surgery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-f5jrh\" class=\"xVISr Y9Dpf bCMSCT OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\"><strong>Several standardised dental procedures are typically followed to ensure our patients\u2019 dental health is the best it can possibly be<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-dguuu\" class=\"xVISr Y9Dpf bCMSCT OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">Despite advocating a patient-centred dental approach, we choose to offer several standardised procedures within our biannual check-up which allows our patients to make the most out of their visit. After giving a general oral assessment of the patient\u2019s mouth to check for any obvious signs of dental decay and wear, our specialist dental team may ask our patients questions regarding their dental hygiene routine within the comfort of their own home. Many of our patients may be struggling to keep the build-up of plaque and tartar at bay, which is where a <strong>dentist in Plymouth<\/strong> can step in.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-9ld6s\" class=\"xVISr Y9Dpf bCMSCT OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\"><strong>Helping our patients\u2019 smiles stay healthy at Meavy Way Dental Practice<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-evknb\" class=\"xVISr Y9Dpf bCMSCT OZy-3 lnyWN yMZv8w bCMSCT public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"B2EFF public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">Many patients may believe that brushing their teeth twice daily for a duration of two minutes is enough to keep the build-up of plaque and tartar at bay, however unfortunately this is not always the case. Plaque and tartar when left untreated can unfortunately lead to the development of oral diseases and infections (such as gum disease to name just one common example) which is why it&#8217;s so vital to remove this before it progresses using a scale and polish at our surgery.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Within the hustle and bustle of everyday life many individuals may possess both hectic work, and social lives which causes their dental health to slide down their priority ladder.
