For now, we will continue with our normal business hours. We are monitoring the current legislation and consumer sentiment and acting accordingly. We are primarily concerned with being available to provide necessary care to our patients. We encourage, keeping all dental appointments for ongoing active treatment and preventative care.

17.01.2022 SPRING IS IN THE AIR TIME FOR THAT DENTAL CHECK UP- PREVENTION IS KEY You say I have no pain, why should I visit the dentist? Our mouths need to be checked on every 6 months to ensure that our teeth and gums are healthy and that you are doing well with your oral hygiene at home. ... When you visit the dentist we check more than your teeth. We look at your jaw and its function, the health of your gums and soft tissue, the way your teeth align, as well as check for any visual decay, we need to take X-Rays approx. every 2 years to check for hidden decay (decay can hide between the teeth). We may provide professional cleaning, oral hygiene and advice. If your mouth is not healthy it can result in the need for costly treatment, pain, infection, the inability to chew well. Healthy teeth and gums means that you can eat, speak and smile with confidence. Seeing your dentist regularly means that any oral health issues can be detected early or be prevented. Don’t delay your dental appointment any longer call (03) 5244 2444 or you can book an appointment via our website on HealthEngine.

02.01.2022 How much sugar are you drinking? It’s more than you think Did you know that a regular 600mL bottle of soft drink contains around 16 teaspoons of sugar? Regular consumption of soft drink and other sugary drinks, like energy drinks, sports drinks, iced teas and fruit drinks, can lead to weight gain and obesity. This increases your risk of serious health problems, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease, stroke and some cancers. Sugary drinks can also lead to ...tooth decay. So before you reach for a sugary drink, stop and think about the impact it can have on your health. Follow these tips and Rethink Sugary Drink: Find out how much sugar is in your favourite drink at www.rethinksugarydrink.org.au/how-much-sugar Be wary of health or nutrition claims check the sugar content on the nutritional panel If you're ordering a fast food meal, ask for water instead of soft drink Carry a water bottle so you don’t have to pay for a drink If you're thirsty, have some water first See more
