Welcome To Our Practice
When you arrive for your first appointment, you will be greeted by one of our friendly reception staff and asked to provide some information about your medical and dental health. [Why is this important? Click here to learn more.]
At Your First Check-Up Appointment
Dr Teo will conduct an oral examination of the following areas:
- Soft tissues of the mouth/Oral Cancer Screening
- Teeth
- Gums
- Radiographs (X-Rays) may be taken, if required
- Additional tests and examinations, if required
See Your Teeth Up Close…
Dr Teo may use an Intra-Oral Camera to show you what she sees as she examines your mouth, teeth and gums. This is an effective means to help patients understand what is going on in their mouths. [To learn more about Intra-Oral Cameras click here.]
Prevention Is Our Focus
Dr Teo has a strong preventative philosophy, and will work with you in an effort to prevent dental disease.
Planning Your Treatment
Following a thorough examination of your teeth, gums and soft tissues, Dr Teo will discuss the treatment options available to address any identified dental problems. Please feel free to raise any concerns or questions which you may have about your dental health or treatment. Your questions are most welcomed. If you forget to ask something while you are here, you are welcome to call us later. We believe that there is no such thing as a silly question!
