What Happens During a General Dentistry Visit
- 1
Check-In & Medical History
5–10 minutesArrive 10 minutes early. Receptionist will verify your CHAS card (if applicable) and confirm your insurance or payment method. You'll complete a brief health form covering medications, allergies, and past dental treatments.
- 2
Visual Exam & X-Rays
10–15 minutesThe dentist examines your teeth, gums, and mouth for signs of decay, gum disease, or other issues. They may take digital X-rays (low radiation) to detect problems between teeth or below the gum line.
- 3
Professional Cleaning (Scaling & Polishing)
15–20 minutesA dental therapist or hygienist removes tartar buildup and plaque using an ultrasonic scaler, then polishes teeth with a mild abrasive to remove surface stains and leave teeth smooth.
- 4
Treatment Plan Discussion
5–10 minutesThe dentist discusses findings, shows you any problem areas on the X-ray, and explains treatment options (e.g., filling, extraction, or monitoring). This is your chance to ask questions without pressure.

Treatment (if needed) or Next Appointment
Varies (0–30 minutes)If no treatment is needed, you'll schedule your next 6-month checkup. If treatment is required (filling, extraction), it may be done same-day or scheduled for a follow-up depending on complexity and your preference.
