Your First Consultation
Your first appointment at may take around 40 – 50 minutes. During your appointment you will be greeted by your dentist, where all your concerns will be discussed carefully. Your dentist will run through your full history and get an understanding of your dental issues. During this time, a full oral examination will take place to assess your mouth, gums and teeth for any signs of concern. Your dentist may recommend taking x-rays of your teeth/mouth and may take some photographs and moulds of your teeth in some occasions where necessary.
This will be followed by a discussion of your treatment options and full estimates of the cost of treatment. We do offer flexible payment plans for larger treatments to make our services accessible for all patients.
Emergency Treatment
If you are in pain, please inform the receptionist when booking your first appointment. We will book you enough time to try to get you out of pain at this first appointment.
Your Child’s First Visit
We love treating children. We understand how important your child’s first visit is, so we try to make it a fun experience, like allowing your child to hold the mirror and count their teeth. Children love laying back in the dental chair to watch our cartoons on the kid’s tv channel on the television screen on the ceiling.
