Salisbury dental check-up at Gentle Dental – your first step to long-term oral health

A dental check-up at Gentle Dental is the best way to prevent costly and uncomfortable dental problems down the line.

Our comprehensive check-up includes time with both the dentist and hygienist, encouraging a three-way conversation. This collaborative approach ensures we’re all aligned on the best plan to maintain and improve your dental health.

A thorough dental check-up

During your Salisbury dental check-up, we take the time to thoroughly assess your teeth, gums, and any existing dental work. Fillings, crowns, bridges, and implants are all carefully examined to catch any signs of wear or hidden issues before they become serious.

With years of experience, Rob can identify early signs of decay or problems with previous treatments and will explain everything clearly, without jargon.

We also recommend combining your check-up with a dental hygienist appointment—an ideal way to ensure your entire mouth is in the best possible condition.

Don't like visiting the dentist?

Many people feel anxious about seeing the dentist—but Gentle Dental are a renowned Salisbury dentist for nervous patients, it's in our name! That’s why patients return to us regularly for their dental check-ups and treatments: they know we put them at ease.

Rob’s approachable manner and sense of humour help create a relaxed atmosphere, and he explains everything clearly—so there are no surprises.

From the moment you arrive in our calming waiting area (with free coffee!) to the friendly, supportive care you receive, we aim to make your Salisbury dental check-up as comfortable as possible.
