What Is General Dentistry?
General Dentistry covers all the essential treatments that protect, maintain, and restore your oral health. It’s the foundation of good dental care — helping to prevent issues like cavities, gum disease, and tooth loss before they develop into serious problems.
At Melbourne Family Dentist, we take a preventative approach to oral health. Our regular check-ups, professional cleans, and modern diagnostics ensure early detection and treatment for lasting results.
Our General Dentistry Services
Our clinic offers a comprehensive range of general dentistry services to maintain your teeth and gums’ health at every stage of life.
Routine check-ups and professional teeth cleaning in Melbourne are the easiest ways to keep your smile healthy.
During each visit, our dentists will:
- Examine your teeth and gums for early signs of decay or disease
- Gently remove plaque and tartar build-up
- Polish your teeth for a smooth, fresh finish
- Provide personalised tips for oral hygiene and diet
We recommend visiting every 6 months for a check-up and cleaning to maintain your healthiest smile.
Our tooth-coloured composite fillings repair cavities while blending seamlessly with your natural enamel. Durable, aesthetic, and mercury-free — perfect for restoring both health and appearance.
Protect your teeth during contact sports with a custom-fit sports mouthguard. Unlike store-bought guards, ours are crafted from durable materials for a secure, comfortable fit that doesn’t affect breathing or speech.
When a tooth can’t be saved, we perform gentle, pain-free extractions using advanced techniques. We also discuss tooth replacement options, such as implants, bridges, or dentures, for full smile restoration.
We utilise modern digital X-rays for accurate and safe diagnostics, with up to 90% less radiation exposure. Instant imaging enables us to detect hidden issues, such as decay, infection, or bone loss, early.
Fissure sealants are thin protective coatings applied to the grooves of children’s back teeth to prevent decay. This quick, painless procedure helps protect growing smiles for years to come.
For patients with missing teeth, our custom dentures in Melbourne restore their smile’s appearance and function. Whether you need full dentures or partial dentures, we ensure a secure and comfortable fit, along with a natural-looking result.
Our gentle Kids Dentistry services ensure your child feels safe and comfortable at every visit. We make dental care fun and educational to build lifelong healthy habits.
We use advanced pain-management techniques, numbing gels, and modern anaesthetics to provide a pain-free dental experience. Patients with anxiety can also request sedation options for added comfort.
Root canal treatment saves damaged or infected teeth from extraction. Our gentle approach and digital imaging ensure precise, comfortable procedures to eliminate infection and restore tooth strength.
If dental visits make you nervous, you’re not alone. We offer a calm environment, empathetic communication, and sedation options to help you feel relaxed throughout your treatment.
Pregnancy can affect oral health due to hormonal changes. We provide safe, gentle dental care for expectant mothers — from cleanings to managing gum sensitivity and decay prevention.
Dental emergencies can strike unexpectedly. Our Emergency Dentistry Melbourne team offers same-day urgent appointments to treat pain, swelling, or injuries quickly.
If you grind or clench your teeth at night, a custom occlusal splint protects against wear, jaw strain, and headaches. Our splints are thin, durable, and designed for comfort.
Jaw pain, headaches, or clicking sounds may indicate TMJ disorder or bruxism. We use a combination of splints, relaxation therapy, and bite adjustments to relieve symptoms and protect your teeth.
