In modern Dentistry there is an emphasis on prevention and healthy lifestyles. We all know that “prevention is better than cure”, and it is also cheaper!
At the Family Dental Clinic we focus on helping patients develop good oral hygiene habits and techniques, allowing them to maintain their natural teeth, healthy gums and beautiful smiles for as long as possible.
Without question, everybody benefits from regular dental check-ups, which we tailor according to patients needs; at four to twelve monthly intervals. During every dental examination we check for early signs of decay, gum disease and oral cancer. Dental Xrays are taken in line with current guidelines.
Regular Hygienist sessions are essential in preventing and controlling gum disease. We have a dedicated team of experienced and friendly Hygienists, as well as a Dental Therapist. We encourage all our patients to have at least one session per year. This becomes even more important for patients undergoing orthodontic treatment.
Early oral health education is the best way to have and keep healthy teeth. It’s not just the check-ups; it covers dietary and hygiene advice to give our children the best possible start. We believe that for children of all age groups visits to the dentist should be a fun and stress free experience… Check out our sticker box and the play area in the waiting room!
