Preventive Dentistry

It is important to have regular check-ups, cleans and x-rays to ensure optimum oral health.

CHECK-UPS

At each check-up appointment, we check the health of your teeth and gums. We also review your brushing technique and advise new ways to improve your oral hygiene.

PROFESSIONAL CLEANS

We clean your teeth with our state-of-the art ultrasonic scaler, which uses vibration and water to dislodge the tartar from your teeth. This prevents bacteria from penetrating your gums and causing bone loss around your teeth.

DIGITAL X-RAYS

X-rays are important for checking under fillings and between your teeth. We recommend routine x-rays every 18 months. We use digital x-rays in our surgery to minimise the radiation you receive.
