Dental Hygiene Treatments Edgecliff

At Edgecliff Dental we deliver a higher level of preventive care to maintain optimal dental and general health.

The emphasis on good oral hygiene is a very important part of our preventive care.

At the check up and clean visits, the dentist will carry out a comprehensive examination including a specialised periodontal (gum) and soft tissue examinations, checking of Jaw joint function, take diagnostic x-rays (when required), clean the teeth and apply fluoride.

  best way to look after your mouth.
• Dental education for patients so that they have a better understanding of their problems.
• Dietary advice in relation to tooth decay.
• Re-mineralization advice on how to stop or prevent tooth decay if required.
• Removal of plaque and calculus (tartar) above and below the gum.
• Screening of the oral environment for cancer and other oral pathology.
• When necessary, X-Rays will be taken.
