Dental health assessment

At your first appointment with Newcastle Dental Practice you’ll receive a full dental health assessment. We like to find out as much as we can about you and your previous dental care. That way, we can offer you the best possible service and expertise.

During a thorough examination using photographs, x-rays and scans your dentist will check the health of your head, neck and inside your mouth. This will provide you with a complete understanding of the health of your mouth and teeth and allows us to recommend a personal dental health plan and recall routines best suited to your individual needs.

Before we begin, you’ll need to complete a medical history to ensure we can also fully cater to your medical needs.

Your dental health assessment will review:

  • Signs of tartar build up and decay
  • Identify any chips and cracks
  • Health of gums
  • Condition and functionality of any existing restorations such as fillings, crowns, bridges or dentures
  • Identify any concerns with your bite
  • Jaw alignment and clicking
  • Signs of stress and teeth grinding
  • Oral cancer screening
  • Cosmetic restoration options

Our dentists are committed to providing you with high-quality dental care, using the latest equipment, materials, procedures, techniques and expert advice to offer you a complete insight into your dental health.

If you would like to book a dental health assessment with Newcastle Dental Practice or to find out more about what we could do for you, please give our team a call on 01782 616178.

The team are NUL Dental Practice are all incredibly polite and professional. I was recently moved in to the care of Dr Marcus Charles-Drummond which, as anyone who has had to switch dentists knows, can be a little nerve wracking. However Marcus is incredibly thorough, fast working, informative and makes you feel comfortable with the procedure you'll be undergoing. Recently had to have two fillings plus an extraction and Marcus and Cass were both wonderful. Couldn't recommend enough. You'll be in good hands with this Dental practice

My wife and I have been with the practice for several years and always found the service to be excellent. Emma and her reception colleagues are friendly and make you feel welcome. My recent appointments have been with Dr Marcus, and dental nurse Molly and both have been excellent. They are professional, friendly, and attentive with exceptional client care. Marcus took the time to explain everything clearly and in detail, concisely discussing options for treatment. I am really happy with the treatment received, and would recommend without hesitation if you are looking for a private dental practice.
