Quick answer – what happens at a dental consultation?
A dental consultation includes a review of your dental concern, medical background, clinical examination, X-rays when needed, explanation of findings and a treatment plan if further care is recommended. The purpose is to help you understand your oral health and choose the right next step.

Dental consultation, emergency visit, second opinion or hygienist care?
Choosing the right appointment saves time and helps us guide you correctly from the start.
| Your situation | Best first step | Why |
|---|---|---|
| You want a general check-up, diagnosis or treatment plan. | Dental consultation | Best for structured examination, explanation and planning. |
| You have severe pain, swelling, infection signs, trauma or a broken tooth that cannot wait. | Emergency dental care | Urgent cases need fast assessment and pain relief. |
| You already have a treatment proposal or quote from another clinic. | Second opinion dentist | Best for comparing diagnosis, treatment options and cost. |
| You mainly need cleaning, tartar removal, stain removal or gum maintenance. | Dental hygienist treatments | Best for prevention, tartar, AirFlow, biofilm and gum-care routines. |
What is included in your dental consultation?
1. Medical and dental history
We review your general health, medications, previous dental treatments, current symptoms and treatment goals. This helps us tailor the assessment to your clinical needs.
2. Clinical examination
Your dentist examines teeth, gums, fillings, crowns, bite, jaw function and oral tissues. We look for cavities, cracks, gum inflammation, tooth wear, infection signs and other findings that may affect your treatment plan.
3. X-rays or panoramic OPG when clinically needed
Not every dental consultation requires X-rays. When imaging is useful for diagnosis or treatment planning, we may recommend intraoral X-rays or panoramic OPG imaging. This can help assess hidden cavities, infections, wisdom teeth, bone levels, implant planning, orthodontic needs or complex treatment situations.
If panoramic imaging involves an additional cost, we explain this before the image is taken. You can read more on our dental imaging page.
4. Explanation in clear English
We explain what we find in practical language: what is urgent, what can be monitored, what treatment options exist and what the advantages and limitations are.
5. Treatment plan and cost estimate
If treatment is recommended, you receive clear options and a cost estimate before proceeding. For larger cases, we may divide treatment into phases so you can understand priority, timing and cost.

Dental care in a new country can feel confusing, especially when you need to understand diagnosis, cost, treatment options and after-care.

Frequently asked questions about dental consultation in Stockholm
What is a dental consultation?
A dental consultation is a clinical assessment where your dentist reviews your symptoms, oral health, treatment goals and possible next steps. It may include examination, X-rays when needed, diagnosis, treatment options and a cost estimate.
Is a dental consultation the same as a dental check-up?
They are closely related. A routine check-up focuses on general oral health screening, while a consultation may also focus on a specific problem or treatment goal, such as tooth pain, implants, Invisalign, veneers, dental anxiety or treatment planning.
Can I book a dental consultation in English?
Yes. Gloss & Floss Dental Care® regularly welcomes English-speaking patients in Stockholm, including expats, tourists, students and international residents.
Do I need X-rays during my first visit?
Not always. X-rays are recommended only when they are clinically useful for diagnosis or treatment planning. Your dentist will explain why imaging is needed before taking it.
Will I receive a treatment plan and cost estimate?
Yes. If treatment is recommended, we explain your options and provide a cost estimate before treatment begins. For larger cases, treatment can often be structured in phases.
Should I book emergency care instead of a consultation?
If you have severe toothache, swelling, trauma, infection signs, a knocked-out tooth or a broken tooth that cannot wait, contact us for emergency dental care. If your situation is not urgent, a consultation is usually the right starting point.
Can I start with a consultation if I have dental fear?
Yes. Many anxious patients prefer to begin with a calm consultation before treatment. We can discuss your concerns, explain the process and agree on a step-by-step approach.
