Hello, not sure if I'm overthinking this but it's worrying me. I had an appointment this morning for a check up with my NHS dentist. I was in and out in 5 minutes! She had a look at my gums and did the poking and scoring like usual. Had a look at all the teeth with a mirror and that was that.
It all felt very rushed and I feel like loads of things were missed. I wasn't asked to bite down to check my bite (usually am), I didn't have the fluoride varnish applied (normally do) just the bare minimum and off you go. I am a high risk patient for dental problems due to underlying illness, and have terrible health anxiety anyway, so just really worried problems could have been missed and I won't know for another six months.
Does this sound like a normal appointment? Or should I call tomorrow and ask for an explanation?
For context, this is the same dentist I always see and as far as I can remember havent had this issue before
I'm naturally a worrier so prepared to be told to chill out!
