24.01.2022 Toothy Tip Did you know it’s best not to rinse your mouth out with water after brushing? Just spit out the excess toothpaste, as rinsing with water washes away the vital fluoride that helps prevent decay. Remember - spit, don’t rinse

18.01.2022 St Helens Dental has installed an OPG x-ray machine at their surgery. On a single film, which takes less than 20 seconds to take, it will display all of the teeth on the upper and lower jaw. It provides valuable information of the wisdom teeth, bone loss, orthodontic assessment, jaw trauma and dental pain. This machine which was not previously available on the east coast of Tasmania now saves our patients time and travel of having to go to Launceston or Hobart.

09.01.2022 Do you suffer from sensitivity? If your teeth are sensitive to the touch of hot, cold, sweets or very acidic foods and drinks (even breathing in cold air!) then come in for a visit so we can assess the cause and discuss your treatment options. It may be a simple superficial problem or it may be the early sign of something more complex. Simple problems can often be fixed by applying fluoride varnish to provide added protection or simple suggest trialling of;... A softer tooth brush. Toothpaste without high levels of abrasives. An arginine and calcium toothpaste. Or a fluoride rinse or toothpaste specially formulated to make you teeth less sensitive and provide extra protection against decay. Book a consult today by phoning 6376 2359 to find a solution.
