What They Say

Charlotte G.

I've been going to the practice for 15 years - I've needed a fair bit of dental work in that time and the dentists, hygenists and admin staff have all been terrific. The practice has been refurbushed - all very comfortable and welcoming. Unsurprisingly they are booked well in advance for routine dental checks.

Monica L.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

  • What should I expect during my first visit?

    During your first visit at our Canberra dental clinic, we will conduct a comprehensive dental examination, discuss your dental history, and possibly take X-rays. This allows us to assess your dental health and create a personalised treatment plan.

  • How often should I visit the dentist?

    While there is no concrete set of rules on when you should visit your Canberra dentist, we recommend visiting the dentist every six months for a routine check-up and cleaning. This helps in early detection and prevention of dental issues.

  • How do I know if I have gum disease?

    Symptoms include red, swollen, or tender gums, bleeding while brushing or flossing, receding gums, and persistent bad breath. Early detection and dental treatment are crucial.

  • How can I prevent gum disease?

    Prevent gum disease by maintaining good oral hygiene practices, including brushing twice daily, flossing daily, and regular dental check-ups and cleanings. To learn more, read our blog about gum disease and how to treat it.

  • Can I whiten my teeth at home?

    Yes, there are at-home whitening options, including whitening toothpastes and strips. However, for safer and more effective results, we recommend professional whitening services. Learn more about professional teeth whitening in Canberra.

  • What should I do in case of a dental emergency?

    In case of a dental emergency, contact our office immediately during clinic hours and Canberra dental care specialists will guide youon the next steps to take.

  • Why are regular dental cleanings important?

    Regular dental cleanings remove plaque and tartar build-up that regular brushing and flossing can't, helping prevent cavities, gum disease, and other dental health issues that may require the intervention of dental surgery.

  • How can I fix my crooked teeth?

    Options include veneers or clear aligners. As part of our cosmetic dental services, we offer consultations to determine the best course of action based on your unique needs and goals.

  • What should I do if I have sensitive teeth?

    For sensitive teeth, use desensitising toothpaste and avoid acidic foods. If sensitivity persists, please visit our Canberra dental care clinic for an evaluation, as it may indicate an underlying issue. For more information, read our blog about the causes, symptoms and treatments for sensitive teeth.

  • Can dental problems affect my overall health?

    Yes, oral health is linked to overall health. Issues like gum disease can increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and other health problems. We recommend practicing proper dental hygiene and getting quality Canberra dental care services at our clinic to ensure your overall wellbeing.

  • What is a dental implant?

    A dental implant is a titanium post, placed in the jawbone through dental surgery, to replace the root of a missing tooth, capped with a crown to mimic a natural tooth. Read our blog on everything you need to know about dental implants to learn more.

  • How long do dental implants last?

    With proper care and regular dental check-ups, dental implants can last for 20 years or more. For those in Canberra, accessing quality Canberra dental care ensures your implants receive the attention they need for longevity.

  • Do I need to floss every day?

    Yes, daily flossing removes plaque and food particles between teeth where a toothbrush can't reach, making it a crucial practice in maintaining oral health. By preventing the buildup of plaque, which can harden into tartar, flossing helps to prevent cavities and gum disease, both of which are common issues that can lead to more serious dental problems if left untreated. Regular visits to your Canberra dental care provider can further ensure these conditions are managed or avoided altogether, keeping your smile healthy and bright.

  • What causes bad breath and how can I prevent it?

    Bad breath can be caused by various factors, including diet, poor oral hygiene, and medical conditions. Dental surgery procedures like tooth extractions can also cause bad breath. Regular brushing, flossing, and dental check-ups at your trusted Canberra dental care clinic can help prevent it.

  • What should I do about a missing tooth?

    Problems with missing tooth can be solved by dental surgery treatments and non-surgical procedures. Options include dental implants, bridges, or dentures. The Canberra dental care experts at our dental clinic can help determine the best solution for you based on your specific needs.

  • What is a root canal treatment?

    Root canal therapy treats an infected or severely decayed tooth by removing the infected or damaged pulp inside the tooth, cleaning and disinfecting the area, and then filling and sealing it. The procedure, which we perform at our Canberra dental care clinic, relieves pain and saves the tooth from extraction, ultimately restoring its function and health. Read our blog on what to expect and when you might need a root canal to learn more.

  • How do I choose a local dentist?

    When choosing a local Canberra dental care specialist, consider their qualifications, experience, and the range of services offered to ensure they can meet all your dental needs in one place. Accessibility, the atmosphere of the dental clinic, and patient reviews, effective communication are also crucial factors. This comprehensive approach ensures you receive tailored, convenient care without the need to seek multiple providers.
