24.01.2022 A big thank you to our wonderful families for all the support this year from the Hi tech Team. Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and a safe Holidays and look forward to a great 2020!

23.01.2022 Let’s work together to keep the community healthy. As healthcare professionals we would like to ensure we are doing our bit to keep our patients and the team at Hi tech ortho healthy during the current Coronavirus (COVID-19) spread and through the upcoming flu season. We will be maintaining our normal hours and our wonderful team is here to assist you. We are closely monitoring the latest medical advice and official government reports in relation to the current global outbr...eak of Coronavirus and constantly updating our systems and procedures to ensure the safety of our patients and our team. As always, our infection control procedures will be of the highest standard when attending our clinic. These procedures not only minimise the risk and spread of the Coronavirus but also other viruses and infections. All of our instruments are washed, disinfected and sterilised in a hospital grade steriliser after every single use (we have always done this). Our treatment chairs and desks are cleaned using a hospital grade detergent and disinfectant after every appointment (this is the gold standard for cleaning hard surfaces). Although our team is very friendly, to reduce the risk of hand to hand spread, we are minimising the shaking of hands (so please don’t take offence). Non clinical areas are also being regularly wiped down and disinfected to reduce contact contagions. What can you do to help: When coming into our clinic, please wash your hands with soap and water before taking a seat. If possible, when making a payment, we ask that you use a debit/credit card and make use of the tap feature to minimise the handling of currency. In order to minimise non-essential gathering of people in our waiting room and clinic, where possible and age appropriate, we respectfully request that patients attend their appointments unaccompanied. Also to wait outdoors if required for your appointment. We are asking that you reschedule your appointment if: You have returned from travel overseas in the last 14 days of your appointment. You have interacted with someone in the last 14 days of your appointment who is a confirmed Coronavirus case. If you have the following symptoms: Fever Cough Shortness of breath Sore throat If you meet any of these criteria, or would feel more comfortable delaying your appointment, we would appreciate if you could call one of our friendly administration team on 56221630 to reschedule your appointment. You should also call your GP to discuss your symptoms. For the latest advice, information and resources, go to www.health.gov.au , or call the National Coronavirus Health Information line on 1800 020 080 (it operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week) or The Victorian Dedicated Coronavirus Hotline on 1800 675 398. If you have any questions regarding your appointment, please feel free to contact us. We look forward to seeing you in the clinic again soon. Warm regards, Rudi Linker and team

10.01.2022 Over summer we tend to crave those cool sweet drinks more than usual. There are a lot of reasons why soft drinks aren’t good for you but did you know they are also a terrible combination with braces? The acid and sugar, if left on your teeth, can get trapped and cause damage and decay. We know it’s hard to stop kids from drinking juices, soft drinks and cordials but if you can get them to cut back by not having them accessible at home, that’s a great start. The other fantastic habit to get into is to have at least a mouthful of water straight after to just swish around and move the sugars and acids on.

10.01.2022 We would love to give a warm welcome to Dr Adam Leung, Orthodontist who is now part of the team.
