Preventative Dentistry in Melbourne CBD
Our preventative care program at Collins Street Dental has been in effect for over 30 years (through our sister practice). Each of our specially trained clinicians focuses on your whole health, as well as maintaining your smile for the years ahead. With proper home care and preventative therapies, you can enjoy optimal long-term oral health.
What’s good for your mouth is also beneficial for the body. By addressing dental risk factors, you may enjoy better overall wellness too.”
What to Expect
During your exam, our highly trained dental hygienists will carefully measure your gums at six sites around each tooth to create a baseline recording that we can monitor for the rest of your life. This concrete data reduces the risk of subjective treatment decisions in the future, allowing us to detect changes in your oral health, so we can treat them while they’re still reversible.
In addition to your scale and clean, we also offer fluoride and desensitising agents. Dietary counselling to prevent dental disease is also available if necessary. Our hygienists will discuss regular home maintenance techniques as they apply to your unique smile.
Each of our hygienists and oral health therapists completes a comprehensive induction program before joining our practice. We want to ensure that your visit with us is entirely comfortable and pleasant for all the many years we will look after your dental health.
We’re Here for Your Family
Our goal is to create a spa-like experience during your dental checkup. From enhanced patient comfort and a warm blanket to a cool towel at the end of your visit, no detail is excluded. You can plan for each checkup to be tailored to your needs. While we take the time needed for a thorough treatment, most visits are a little under an hour.
