If you notice any of the following, it is a good idea to book a dental check-up rather than wait for your next routine visit.

  1. Gums that bleed when you brush or floss
  2. Sensitivity to hot, cold or sweet things
  3. Toothache or pain when biting
  4. A chipped, cracked or broken tooth
  5. Bad breath that does not go away
  6. A sore, lump or patch in the mouth lasting more than two weeks
  7. A filling or crown that feels loose or rough

These signs do not always mean something serious, but they are worth a professional look.
