Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our general dentistry services.

We recommend visiting the dentist every six months for a routine check-up and professional clean. Regular visits allow us to detect any issues early, when they are easiest and least expensive to treat. Some patients with specific conditions may benefit from more frequent visits, which we will discuss with you based on your individual needs.
Digital X-rays are taken as needed to get a complete picture of your oral health. They help us identify issues that are not visible during a visual examination, such as decay between teeth, bone loss, or impacted teeth. We typically recommend X-rays every one to two years, but this may vary depending on your individual circumstances and dental history.
Yes, we accept all major health insurance providers and can process your claim on the spot with our HICAPS terminal, so you only pay the gap. We recommend checking with your health fund about your level of cover before your appointment. If you have any questions about costs, our friendly team is happy to help.
A professional clean (also called a scale and clean) involves removing plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth, including areas that are difficult to reach with regular brushing and flossing. We then polish your teeth to remove surface stains and smooth the enamel. We may also apply a fluoride treatment for extra protection against decay.
The best way to prevent cavities is to maintain good oral hygiene at home by brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste and flossing daily. Limit sugary snacks and acidic drinks, and visit your dentist regularly for check-ups and professional cleans. We can also recommend fluoride treatments and dental sealants for additional protection, particularly for children.
Modern root canal treatment is much more comfortable than many people expect. We use local anaesthesia to ensure you feel no pain during the procedure. Most patients report that the experience is similar to having a filling. A root canal actually relieves the pain caused by an infected tooth, and with our gentle approach, we make the process as comfortable as possible.
