Dental check-up
An examination of the teeth, gums and mouth, with findings and options explained afterwards.
Could this treatment help you?
A check-up is a full examination of the teeth, gums, bite and soft tissues — including a screen for mouth cancer — with x-rays where needed. Problems found early are small, cheap and simple; the check-up is what keeps them that way.
A new patient examination at Pearl Dental, including x-rays, is £80. The practice is private, seeing private and Denplan patients, with evening appointments on Mondays and Tuesdays and Saturday opening.
This may suit you if
Everyone — and especially anyone who has not seen a dentist in a while. However long it has been, you are welcome; the examination starts from where your mouth is now.

Questions patients usually ask.
How much is a check-up?
A new patient examination, including x-rays, is £80.
It has been years since I saw a dentist. Can I still come in?
No. It is a common situation and the examination simply starts from where you are. Problems are explained clearly, and treatment is planned at your pace.
Do you see NHS patients?
Pearl Dental is a private practice and no longer provides NHS dental care. Care is available privately or through a Denplan membership plan — reception will explain the options when you book.
