We run a CHECK TABLE nightly on every table (see: http://www.mysql.com/doc/C/H/CHECK_TABLE.html) and I would HIGHLY recommend doing so. If the check table fails, we run a REPAIR TABLE. We also used to do a REPAIR TABLE EXTENDED on weekends to optimize indexes until our db got too big for that to finish in a reasonable amount of time.
