General Dentistry
At Booragoon Family Dental Centre, our experienced team help all ages get a healthy and beautiful smile. Our broad array of services includes everything you’ll need to keep your teeth and gums in great shape.
When it comes to your oral health, the most powerful tool you have is taking care of your teeth. You can do so with periodic checkup and cleans, along with your home hygiene routines of brushing and flossing.
You want your kids to have healthy teeth and gums from the start of their development. We can check their oral health from about one year old, then see them for regular appointments. At these visits, we’ll also teach them what they can do to keep their teeth and gums in their optimal state.
When you’re in pain or have a serious concern about your teeth, you need to be seen by a dentist straightaway. We welcome emergency cases to our practice. At your appointment, we’ll relieve any pain you’re in, prescribe antibiotics or complete treatment as appropriate.
We can perform most extractions in-house, including most wisdom teeth cases. We’ll do so gently while you’re under anaesthetic. After your procedure is completed, we’ll advise you on the complete aftercare instructions you need for a full recovery.
Your teeth are held in place by your gums. The health of your gums, then, is critical. If your gums need work, we can provide the proper treatment. The milder form of gum disease can likely be addressed with regular cleanings. A deeper form, though irreversible, can be managed with the proper care.
You don’t want to face losing a tooth if there is another option available. With a root canal treatment, you can save your tooth from extraction. We’ll clean out the infection that has set deeply into your tooth. After the procedure, we’ll cap your tooth with a dental crown so that it won’t break down in the future.
Crowns and bridges are restorative measures that can help teeth that have been damaged or lost. A crown covers a tooth that has been worn down, decayed or affected by trauma. A dental bridge is made up from two crowns on each end with fake teeth in the middle. It can replace up to 5-6 teeth that have gone missing.
Dentures are the tried-and-true way to replace missing teeth. They can be made up in full or partial forms depending on whether you need to replace all teeth or only some. You can choose to have them made from acrylic or chrome materials depending on your preferences.
A dental filling is a simple way to stop decay from affecting your teeth. We provide tooth-coloured fillings or traditional amalgam fillings to suit your needs. The process of getting a filling is straightforward and simple, taking place over a single appointment.
Over time, your teeth can become discoloured. If you would like to brighten them up, we offer teeth whitening kits. You’ll get customised trays and a whitening solution from us to take care of in the comfort of your own home. You can whiten your teeth to the degree you like, then touch up the whitening at regular intervals as needed.
