The best way to maintain good oral hygiene is to brush and floss your teeth twice daily and to visit your dentist regularly, normally once every 6 months. Our dental professionals at Sherwood dental practice treat patients from Sherwood, Indooroopilly, Graceville, Chelmer and Oxley, and the surrounding areas, in order to help a wide range of people achieve a healthy, beautiful smile.
During your check-up we will examine your teeth for signs of decay or damage, and look for early signs of gum disease and oral cancer. We recommend that you visit our Sherwood dental office twice a year, although patients suffering from severe gum disease or a weakened immune system may need to visit our dental office more often.
We will first asses your teeth, discuss whether there have been any problems since your last dental check-up and discuss any new medication that you may be taking. Our general check-up appointments consist of:
If cavities are found or your oral hygiene needs to be improved, we will develop a treatment plan outlining the work to be carried out; you will then need to make an appointment for the necessary treatment.
To keep your smile healthy you may be required to visit for a follow-up treatment, our general dental treatments include:
We understand that for some new patients, visiting the dentist can be an anxious time. This is why we created our Handle Me With Extra Care program.
During your general check-up appointment at our Sherwood practice our Sherwood Dental professionals can identify if these treatments are necessary.
Our friendly team is here to help you!
