New patients complete a medical history form and receive a comprehensive oral examination (which may include low-radiation digital X-rays). Your dentist will discuss concerns, explain options and create a personalised plan. Our calming environment and gentle approach help ease nervous patients.

Absolutely. Your initial appointment typically includes a thorough exam, necessary X-rays and a gentle clean. We’ll prioritise urgent issues and can stage treatment to fit your schedule and budget.

Yes. We offer a supportive environment with clear communication and gentle techniques. Options such as nitrous oxide (“happy gas”) or oral sedation can be arranged for suitable patients.

You’ll receive a written treatment plan and itemised quote before any procedure. Our fees are competitive and there’s no pressure—complex care (e.g., Invisalign, implants, extensive restorative work) can often be staged.

We accept most major health funds and process claims instantly via HICAPS. Patients with extras cover can obtain on-the-spot rebates. Afterpay and National Dental Plan (Humm) are available for instalments.

Flexible payment plans are available; we’ll discuss options to suit your budget. We accept EFTPOS, major credit cards and interest-free plans via approved providers.

We participate in the Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS) for eligible children and welcome Veterans’ Affairs patients.

Most people benefit from a check-up and professional clean every six months. If you have gum disease or higher decay risk, visits every 3–4 months may be advised. Digital X-rays are taken only when clinically necessary.

Brush twice daily with a soft-bristled brush and fluoridated toothpaste; floss once daily. Electric brushes can help with plaque removal. Replace your brush/head every 3–4 months.

Appointments include a comprehensive exam, gentle removal of plaque/tartar (often with ultrasonic scalers), polishing and fluoride as required. Routine care helps detect decay and gum disease early.

Fluoride varnish/gel strengthens enamel; dental sealants protect deep grooves in molars. Beneficial for children and adults with high caries risk.

Brush twice daily, floss or use interdental brushes, and consider antibacterial mouthwash. Replace brushes regularly, quit smoking, eat a balanced diet and keep up with regular dental visits.

Cosmetic dentistry improves tooth colour, shape and alignment. We offer professional whitening, composite bonding, porcelain/ceramic veneers, custom crowns, Invisalign and full smile makeovers.

Choose in-chair Philips Zoom whitening (60–90 minutes), take-home custom trays, or a combined approach. Treatments are tailored to minimise sensitivity and protect enamel.

Bonding repairs chips and small gaps in one visit. Veneers provide durable, natural-looking improvements to shape/colour. Crowns restore strength and appearance for cracked or root-treated teeth; we work with trusted local labs for fast turnaround.

Results typically last 6–12 months with good care. Avoid staining foods/drinks and smoking. Whitening isn’t recommended during pregnancy or when untreated decay is present.

Tooth-coloured composite fillings are durable and bond to tooth structure. Longevity depends on size, location and hygiene. After numbing, decay is removed, composite is placed and cured, then shaped and polished.

Crowns cover damaged/root-treated teeth to restore strength and function; materials include porcelain, zirconia or metal. Bridges replace one or more missing teeth by anchoring to adjacent teeth. Good hygiene and regular reviews are essential.

Implants replace missing teeth with a titanium or zirconia fixture in the jawbone and a custom crown. Options include single-tooth implants, implant bridges and full-arch solutions. Planning uses digital 3-D scans; with proper care, implants can last decades.

Root-canal treatment removes infected pulp, disinfects canals and seals the tooth—typically followed by a crown for strength. With modern techniques and local anaesthesia, the procedure is usually no more uncomfortable than a filling.

Extractions are performed gently under local anaesthesia; nitrous oxide or oral sedation can be arranged. Wisdom teeth may require removal if impacted or painful. We provide clear post-op instructions and can refer complex surgical cases to an oral surgeon.

We provide full/partial dentures and implant-supported overdentures. Clean dentures daily, remove at night, and attend annual checks for relines and oral cancer screening.

Gingivitis is reversible with professional cleaning and good home care. Periodontitis causes irreversible bone loss and requires ongoing maintenance.

Scaling removes plaque/tartar below the gumline; root planing smooths roots to discourage bacteria. Multiple visits may be required for advanced cases.

We measure pocket depths with a periodontal probe and assess bone levels on X-rays to detect disease early.

Invisalign uses a series of custom clear trays to gradually move teeth. Aligners are removable, nearly invisible and comfortable, so you can eat and brush normally.

We begin with a consultation and digital scans. You’ll change aligners about every two weeks with progress checks every 6–8 weeks. Treatment typically ranges from 6–18 months, followed by retainers to maintain results.

Experienced provider in East Brisbane with 3-D smile previews, flexible appointments, payment plans and health fund support.

Severe toothache, a broken or knocked-out tooth, lost fillings/crowns, uncontrolled bleeding, facial swelling or dental trauma require urgent care. If a tooth is avulsed, keep it moist (milk) and seek immediate treatment.

Yes—same-day, late-night and weekend emergency slots are often available. Call 0478 000 333 after hours or (07) 3391 7915 during business hours, or book online 24/7.

Bring your health fund card and a list of medications. Be ready to describe symptoms and timing. For a knocked-out tooth, bring it with you. We provide immediate relief, emergency extractions and repairs to prevent further damage. New patients are welcome.

Schedule the first visit by your child’s first birthday or within six months of the first tooth. Early visits help kids feel comfortable and allow us to monitor development and advise on home care.

Brush twice daily with a smear of fluoridated toothpaste; floss when adjacent teeth touch. Limit sugary snacks/drinks and attend regular check-ups. Sealants and fluoride reduce cavity risk.

Untreated decay can cause pain and infection and affect spacing for adult teeth. We restore with fillings/crowns where appropriate; severely damaged teeth may need extraction and space maintenance.

We use child-friendly language, modelling and distraction techniques; nitrous oxide may be offered when suitable. Parents can prepare kids with story books and well-timed appointments.

Eligible children (2–17) can access Medicare’s Child Dental Benefits Schedule. We bulk-bill CDBS—ask reception to check eligibility.

Food debris, plaque build-up, gum disease, dry mouth, dental decay, some dentures and certain medical conditions can cause halitosis.

Brush teeth and tongue twice daily, floss daily, stay hydrated and limit sugary/acidic foods. Quit smoking and moderate alcohol. Persistent issues should be assessed by a dentist.

Grazing prolongs acid attacks from plaque bacteria. Limit snacks; choose water over sugary drinks; have sweets with meals and rinse with water afterwards.
