Our Comprehensive Family and General
Dentistry Services
- Routine Dental Exams and Cleanings
Routine exams and cleanings are essential and are the cornerstone of preventive dental care. We recommend our patients to visit us once every six months for a thorough oral health examination combined with a professional dental hygiene cleaning.During these visits, we assess your oral health and, check for any early signs of decay, gum disease, or other issues. Our friendly, experienced hygienists provide professional dental hygiene appointments for dental cleaning to remove any tartar or plaque which may have built up on your teeth and gums. Our hygienists ensure that each cleaning is gentle yet thorough, and our dentists are always available to address questions or concerns regarding your dental health. Regular visits help keep your smile healthy and prevent small issues from becoming more serious.
- Fluoride Treatments and Dental Sealants
To protect against cavities, particularly in younger patients, we offer fluoride treatments and dental sealants. Fluoride treatments help in strengthening tooth enamel, thereby making the enamel more resistant to decay. Simultaneously, dental sealants create a protective barrier over molars, where cavities commonly occur. These preventive measures are quick, painless, and provide lasting protection, especially for children and teens. - Fillings and Restorative Dentistry
Cavities in the teeth can occur among patients regardless of age. At Erindale Dental Centre, we provide gentle, minimally invasive fillings to treat tooth decay and restore teeth to full function. We use tooth-coloured composite fillings, which blend completely with your natural teeth and are aesthetically pleasing. We also offer crowns, inlays, and onlays for more extensive decay or damage to restore and protect compromised teeth.
- Gum Disease Treatment
This cant be said often enough; gum health is vital for overall oral health. Gum disease, also called periodontal disease, is a common but preventable condition of the gums which if left unaddressed can lead to greater oral health complications. Our team is trained to identify the early stages of gum disease and provide effective treatment, including deep cleanings and periodontal maintenance, to help prevent progression. By addressing gum health, we can help protect your smile and support your overall health. - Root Canal Therapy
When the tooth decay or an infection penetrates to the inner pulp of a tooth, performing root canal therapy can potentially save the tooth from extraction. At Erindale Dental Centre, we perform gentle, effective root canal treatments. The root canal therapy removes the infected tissue, clean the root canals, and finally seals the tooth to prevent further infection. Our team is dedicated to ensuring this process is as comfortable as possible, helping to relieve pain and preserve your natural teeth. - Extractions
At Erindale Dental, our primary aim we aim is to preserve natural teeth. When this is not possible, tooth extractions are sometimes necessary to protect your oral health. We provide gentle extraction services when required, whether for severely decayed teeth, impacted wisdom teeth, or orthodontic reasons. Our team takes the time to ensure you are comfortable throughout the procedure and will discuss replacement options if needed. - Cosmetic Dentistry Options
In addition to essential dental care, we offer cosmetic dentistry services to help you achieve a smile that you want to be proud of. From teeth whitening to dental bonding or veneers, we can enhance the appearance of your smile in a way that complements your natural features. Our cosmetic treatments are designed to provide subtle, beautiful results that boost your confidence and support your oral health. - Emergency Dental Care
Dental emergencies are stressful, but do not worry, we’re here to help. If you experience sudden pain, a knocked-out tooth, or a broken filling, our team provides prompt emergency care to alleviate discomfort and effectively address the issue. We completely understand the importance and need of quick, and compassionate care in emergencies. We always try and prioritize getting you the treatment you need when it matters most.

While regular dental visits are essential, good habits at home make a big difference, too. Here are a few tips to help your family maintain excellent oral health:
- Brush Twice a Day: Brushing daily both in the morning and before going to bed helps remove plaque and prevent cavities.
- Floss Daily: The habit of flossing daily helps you removes food particles and bacteria from between teeth, supporting gum health.
- Limit Sugary Snacks and Drinks: Foods and drinks that are loaded with sugar can increase the risk of decay, so opt for healthier choices wherever possible.
