At Raffles Medical in Ho Chi Minh, our routine dental checkups include the following:

  • Teeth – Examined for decay, faulty fillings, cracks and wear.
  • Gums – To ensure that they are healthy. Bleeding gums are signs of gum disease.
  • Mouth – Bones, cheeks, tongue, palate and other parts of the mouth and face will be examined for any signs of diseases. 

Dental X-ray examinations are an important part of the routine dental checkup as it can detect problems which may not be apparent during the clinical examination. An X-ray examination may reveal:

  • Small areas of decay between the teeth 
  • Presence of periodontal (gum) disease 
  • Location of impacted teeth, eg wisdom teeth 
  • Infections in the bone 
  • Abscesses, cysts or tumours
  • Developmental abnormalities 

After the examination, our dentist will provide you with a treatment plan and discuss the  implementation of the plan with its associated costs. 

Apart from regular brushing and flossing of your teeth, it is essential to make routine, twice-a-year dental check-ups a priority because the mouth is a gateway to the rest of your body and good oral hygiene contributes to good overall health.
