Comfortable and Comprehensive Dental Services
Here at Road Dental, we have a broad range of dental services to cater to all your needs. From a general check-up, through to splints, tooth extraction and root canals, our professional team is on hand to see you back to optimal dental hygiene in the best way possible. If you have any questions or queries along the way, we are here to answer them. Our aim is to make your experience as pain-free as possible, putting you in control of your dental health and making you feel comfortable in the process.
Our clinic is open six days a week, with after-hours visits also available by appointment. However, we understand that patients with severe tooth aches, broken teeth, or sports injuries will need priority attention. This is why we keep allocated time slots open every day for emergency treatment.
If you or a family member need urgent care, please do not hesitate to contact Road Dental for an emergency appointment.
Dental hygiene is of the utmost importance, and regular check-ups can ensure you avoid things like fillings and tooth extraction down the track. Our friendly team and state-of-the-art equipment will keep you comfortable while we make sure everything’s in working order, so you can get back to your life with peace of mind.
Fight the build-up of plaque and tartar by having your teeth professionally cleaned. Road Dental’s specialized staff will reach places that are difficult to clean on your own, and explain exactly what we’re doing every step of the way. Our dentists recommend flossing once a day and brushing twice using a small, soft toothbrush, as well as a professional clean every six months to achieve a beautiful healthy smile for life.
If you have any tooth decay, it may need to be cleaned out and filled. This will help to restore cavities and allow your teeth to function as usual without pain or discomfort. There are a number of different filling types depending on your needs, but our expert staff will always explain the process to you and talk you through your options.
In order to form healthy habits, it’s best to teach good dental hygiene practises from a young age. That’s why we cater to children as well, so you can begin their routine check-ups early and ensure they are off to the best possible start.
Children who are eligible for the Child Dental Benefit Schedule (CDBS), will also be bulk-billed in our clinic. Please contact us for further information about this program.
We do everything we can to restore your teeth, but when a tooth cannot be saved, removal is sometimes the best thing for your health. This can be stressful for patients, but fortunately, our professional team will talk you through the process and put your mind at ease. We always make sure our patients know what to expect before and after the procedure, including what their options are if they need a replacement.
With more than one tooth missing, chewing food can become difficult, especially if your remaining teeth start to move. Depending on their position, your smile could also be affected, and this can have an impact on self-esteem. To make life easier, dentures are an efficient and cost-effective option. Each set is custom made for your individual needs and can be provided as a partial or full set.
Unfortunately when a cavity gets too deep, it can incur an infection and result in considerable pain – enough to keep you awake at night! When extraction is undesirable, a root canal is a good alternative option. Root canals remove the infection and pain while keeping the tooth in place. We strongly recommend a protective cover following this procedure to significantly reduce the risk of breakage and extend the life of your tooth.
When you have a damaged tooth that cannot be repaired with a filling, crowns are often the ideal solution. Not only do they make the tooth stronger, they also cover any undesirable discolouration and improve the overall appearance of your smile.
In the case of missing teeth, bridges can provide a more permanent solution than dentures. Fitted to look natural in your mouth, they will make it seem as though you never lost any teeth in the first place!
There are many sports, both competitive and recreational, that will put you at risk of dental injuries. For those where collision is common (as in rugby, AFL, hockey, boxing, or martial arts), it is mandatory to wear mouthguards. However, many don’t require mouthguards, such as cricket, basketball, netball, touch football, or soccer, yet accidental collisions still occur. These are often responsible for dental trauma. Whether you are playing or training, the risk of damage to your teeth can be easily prevented by wearing a properly fitted custom mouthguard. Those made by dentists have been shown to provide the best result.
If you have significant tooth wear, frequent chipping, or multiple cracked teeth, it might be due to the act of excessive grinding and clenching, called ‘bruxism’. It is important to protect your teeth from further damage, and this can be done with specially designed occlusal splints. These are made for the upper or lower teeth, and are normally worn at night.
Because of all the food and drinks we consume every day, or sometimes just due to age, our teeth naturally change colour over the years. However, if you’re unhappy with discolouration and find that it negatively affects your self-confidence, there’s no reason to live with it. Simply give us a call to arrange a consultation with our friendly staff! Our team will assess your teeth and recommend the best way to give you a brighter smile.
