General Dentistry in Bull Creek

Our approach to kid’s dentistry is a little different from the rest because children need and deserve special treatment. They require a more friendly and comfortable environment for getting the dental treatment. Our friendly dentists provide you the best tips and treatments to make children’s dentistry smooth and hassle-free.

Along with the correct diagnosis of the child’s dental condition, our dentists believe that prevention is always better than cure. Children should learn healthy oral hygiene early in their life. Good mouth hygiene will keep their teeth in the best condition for the rest of their lives. Our dentists are adept in providing the best oral care tips and measures to the children to maintain a healthy mouth and smile forever.

Ensure a regular oral check-up of your kids’ teeth. This is imperative to detect all the tooth-related concerns in time. We suggest that the parents must speak to their children and keep explaining the importance of oral dental hygiene, from time to time. This will encourage the kids to visit a dentist every six months.

As per the Australian Medicare, all the kids between the ages of two years to seventeen years receive dental care benefits. This scheme was introduced in January 2014 which offers a Child Dental Benefits Schedule. You can avail the kids’ dentistry services for up to $1000 per child. This amount covers the treatment such as general examination, preventive treatment,

restorative treatment, etc., including dental cavities, x-rays, root canal, or RCT.

We are firm believers in quality care, preventive technology, and using child-friendly tools to conduct diagnosis and treatment. We assure you of providing convenient and comprehensive dental treatment.
