Our Services
Along with the multitude of services listed here, we bulk bill The Child Dental Benefits Schedule so your child can receive preventive treatment, including a check up and clean, x-rays, fissure sealants, fillings, diet advice and oral hygiene instructions. We deal with Veteran Affairs and can even organise your transport to and from our surgery if you are a gold card holder.
Services list
We recommend a dental exam every 6 months for adults and children from 3 years onwards. Therefore dental problems can be detected and treated early.
Digital X-ray
We recommend dental bitewings every 2 years. We have digital x-ray equipment, which uses only 1/10 of the radiation than conventional x-rays.
Scale and Clean
We recommend a scale and clean every 6 months for adults and children to keep teeth and gums healthy. For children we use plaque disclosure to demonstrate where the toothbrush did not reach and to improve their brushing skills.
Periodontal assessment
We assess periodontal health and refer to periodontitis’, if there are signs of “gum disease”.
Orthodontic assessment
We assess children for the need of orthodontic treatment and refer to orthodontists if necessary. An early referral to a specialist assures the best outcome.
Wisdom tooth assessment
We assess the available space for your wisdom teeth and refer for extractions if necessary.
Fillings
We do high quality composite resin fillings (white fillings) and also replace your old amalgam fillings (metal fillings).
Fissure sealants
To protect your child’s permanent molars, we advise preventive fissure sealants.
