Frequently Asked Questions

• How Long will my Treatment take?

The duration of treatment depends on the specific procedure. For example, a routine check-up, scale, and clean usually takes up to one hour. More complex treatments, such as root canal therapy, are often completed over several appointments, with each visit lasting approximately one hour. Your dentist will provide a more accurate timeframe after assessing your individual needs.

• How often should I have a Dental Checkup?

We recommend visiting the dentist every six months for a check-up and clean. Regular visits help us detect and treat potential issues early, keeping your teeth and gums healthy.

• What are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are small titanium screws that are surgically placed into your jawbone to replace missing teeth. They provide a strong, permanent foundation for fixed or removable replacement teeth and look and function like natural teeth.

• Do you see Adults & Children

Yes, we warmly welcome patients of all ages, including children and adults. Our team is experienced in family dentistry and is committed to providing gentle, comprehensive care for everyone.

• What are Dental Veneers?

Dental veneers are thin, custom-made shells designed to cover the front surface of teeth. They are a popular cosmetic treatment to improve the appearance of discoloured, worn, chipped, or uneven teeth, giving you a natural-looking, beautiful smile.

• What are Crowns and Bridges

Crowns and bridges are restorative dental treatments. Crowns cover and protect damaged or weakened teeth, while bridges fill the gap left by one or more missing teeth, restoring function and appearance.

• Do you require payment at the time of consultation

Yes, payment is required at the time of your consultation or treatment. We strive to make payments easy and convenient for all our patients.

• Can I claim my health fund benefits on the spot?

Yes, we can process your health fund claim instantly using HICAPS. All you need to pay is the gap amount, if any. We accept all major health funds, as well as Eftpos, Visa, and Mastercard.
