Most people have heard that they should see the dentist every six months. For many adults that’s a sensible default, but it isn’t a rule written in stone.
What decides your interval
Your history of decay and gum disease
How well you can clean at home
Smoking, diet and some medications
Treatments that need monitoring, such as implants
Our approach
After your first examination we’ll recommend a recall interval that fits your risk — anywhere from three to eighteen months — and review it at every visit.
