General Dental Treatment |
At Southern Dental Care we can not only transform your smile, we can still provide for your entire dental requirements.
Night/Occlusal Splints - These are custom made devices that fit into your mouth and used whilst you sleep. This prevents further wear to the teeth and further cracked teeth/fillings. Ideal for those who are conscious of grinding and don't want to lose any more tooth structure.
Fissure Seals - A thin layer of filling material placed in the fissures of molar teeth to prevent decays forming in the deep grooves. Great for children and teenagers as it lowers their chances greatly of developing decay in their fissures, especially since some teeth can be hard to reach.
Extractions - Generally a last resort as it is always best to try to keep your natural teeth as long as they are healthy. However if there is a need to have a tooth extracted we are able to do both straight forward extractions and surgical extractions. We also have nitrous oxide to make the experience more comfortable.
Fillings - We use composite resin and glass ionomer as our filling material (white fillings) which is much more aesthetically pleasing than amalgam and contains no mercury. Our filling material comes in many tooth shades therefore can be matched very accurately to your natural tooth and the filling will be unnoticeable to the naked eye.
Air Abrasion - This can be used instead of a drill in some cases especially fissure seals and broken fillings, local anaesthetic is generally not required.
Mouthguards - Our mouthguards are custom fitted to each persons mouth, from children right up to an active aged person. They are $88 for a single colour or $98 for more than one colour. Choose your favourite football team colour or the colour of your club!
Examinations - Consists of a comprehensive oral check and includes a full treatment plan which is itemised for your convenience. Films may also be taken to check for decay between molars, recommended every 2-3 years.
Dentures - Can be either partial or full. Good for the financially conscious people as dentures are your cheapest teeth replacement technique.
