Gum Cleaning
Regular visits to see the Dental Hygienist are important to removing the build-up of Plaque and Tartar around teeth and gums. Without this, Gum Disease may develop into Periodontitis which destroys bone around teeth leading to loose teeth

Fissure Seals
Dental fissure seals are a protective layer applied on the chewing teeth (the molars) to reduce tooth decay. Applying a sealant is quick and painless and can save a lot of pain and money in the future.
The grooves in the back molars (known as fissures) are the most common locations for cavities in the teeth and sealants provide a barrier against the bacteria that can get into these fissures and cause plaque and tooth decay. Fissure sealants are a white or clear composite resin, similar to a white tooth filling so will not change the colour of your teeth like the old amalgam fillings
White Fillings
White fillings are now the preferred material for filling teeth, and advances in materials and techniques mean that our white fillings are even more natural looking, more polished, and have an improved combination of strength, finish and longevity than ever before. You can expect better bonding properties that hold firmly to your existing tooth structure and a more direct procedure.
Gentle Dental Ashgrove offers white fillings as an option for restoring your tooth after cavity removal, and as a replacement for any old amalgam fillings you may have. Many people have replaced their amalgam fillings with the new restoratives simply out of health concerns. Despite its extremely low mercury exposure, amalgam fillings have been known to pose a health safety risk.
Root Canals
Root canal treatment is a procedure carried out on a tooth that becomes infected or inflamed and cannot recover on its own. Our trained and professional dentists will first complete a thorough examination of your tooth and talk through our pain-free treatment options with you. Our root canal procedures can usually be completed in one session – saving you time, stress and money. We can check the full cost with our HICAPS unit before going ahead with any treatment plan
