Our General Dental Services & Preventative Dental Treatment
Preventative dental care is essential throughout your childhood, adulthood and old age. We provide general dentistry services in Brighton and the surrounding suburbs in Brisbane. Reach out today to speak to our team so we can become your dentists.
General dentistry will involve standard dental services, allowing your dentist to diagnose, treat and prevent potentially harmful oral conditions. We are healthcare providers, and our commitment to our patients is to provide general dental services that will improve your dental health and well-being.
Maintaining your dental hygiene is more important than most people realise.
Preventative Dental Services
Our team are here to help you look after your teeth for the long term or for the time that you are living near our dental practice. General dentistry services are those treatments that you’re likely to need at any stage in your life that aren’t too invasive and are not primarily designed to act as a cosmetic enhancement of your appearance.
All dental clinics practice general dental treatments aimed at patients who are conscientious of their dental health, and we are no different. Our preventative dental care will benefit our patients by helping them maintain good oral health. By advising and establishing an excellent client-patient relationship, we can provide regular dental check-ups and dental care that will cover patients from early childhood through teens and well into old age.
Here are the services and treatments that will encompass general preventative dental services that we provide:
A Family Dentist That You Can Trust
We strongly recommend nearby families visit our general dental practice in Brighton, especially those with children at a young age. Encouraging young children and teenagers to take their dental hygiene seriously can be challenging at times; we are here to help them become accustomed to regular dental visits.
Paediatric (Children’s) Dental Treatment
The informative early years are the best time to introduce dentistry to your children. Your child will not develop a fear of the dentist and see their regular check-ups as a common occurrence throughout their teenage years and into adulthood. Speak to our team about children’s dentistry in Brighton and the surrounding suburbs in Brisbane.
Fissure Sealants
This is a tooth-coloured film that is applied to molars, or back teeth, which can be prone to tooth decay. Fissure Sealants will cover deep pits on the tooth surface, preventing food particles from becoming trapped.
This is a painless treatment specifically intended for children who may have a fear of dentistry.
Custom Sports Mouthguards and Splints
Children and adults that participate in contact sports will benefit from custom mouthguards rather than those bought from sports companies. Not only do we provide mouthguards that help those playing sports, but we also provide splints for those that damage their teeth at night by grinding their teeth.
White Fillings
Teeth are made of enamel and can, over time, become damaged through decay or wear and tear. White fillings are a common method to cover up the cracks in your teeth and prevent the crevasses from expanding and damaging the tooth’s roots. We create fillings that will match your teeth’ colouration, allowing them to blend into the natural shade of your teeth. This will prolong the life of your teeth over time.
Regular Check-Ups and Hygiene Cleans
Having regular dental check-ups and hygiene cleans is often overlooked and not maintained by many patients. There is a correlation between those not continually receiving treatment which leads to long-term, more expensive treatments being required.
Although regular brushing and flossing are essential, they cannot replace a general dental clean’s detailed and in-depth cleaning. We recommend that you book a bi-annual dental clean with our practice.
Routine Extractions
You may have a tooth that has become damaged from potential decay or recent trauma. Consequently, it may need to be extracted. The team will, in the first instance, aim to save a damaged tooth using our dental solutions. However, if a tooth cannot be saved, we will endeavour to make the dental extraction as pain-free as possible and provide you with solutions to cover the lost tooth.
Amalgam Removals
Older silver mercury fillings can be common among older patients when this material was predominately used by doctors when creating fillings. We provide a treatment to remove these existing fillings – amalgam removal and can replace them with modern fillings.
