Oral health education
We also understand the importance of establishing good dental habits early in life for your little ones. Our children's dentistry services are designed to create a positive and enjoyable experience for our young patients. We provide comprehensive dental care for children, including routine dental health reviews, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and sealants.
Our friendly team is dedicated to educating both children and parents on proper oral hygiene practices, ensuring a lifetime of healthy smiles. With a gentle approach and a fun, welcoming environment, we help your child feel comfortable and excited about their dental visits.
Routine dental visits
Regular dental health reviews and cleanings are the cornerstone of good oral health. During your visit, our team will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and mouth to identify any potential issues early. Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup that regular brushing and flossing can't reach, helping to prevent cavities and gum disease.
​
Early detection of oral cancer is crucial for successful treatment. During your dental health review, we perform a comprehensive oral cancer screening to identify any signs of abnormal tissue. This proactive approach helps to ensure your overall health and well-being.
​
Prevention is key to maintaining optimal oral health. Our dental hygienists provide personalised care and education on proper brushing and flossing techniques, dietary advice, and the importance of regular dental visits. We emphasise preventive measures to avoid common dental problems such as cavities, gum disease, and tooth loss.
A full oral health assessment includes carefully examining outside the mouth as well as inside the mouth. We check the skin and tissues around your mouth and neck, looking for any abnormalities. We then check the soft tissues inside the mouth again looking for any tissue changes; inside the cheek, the tongue, under the tongue, the throat area and around the gums. Oral Cancer generally doesn’t have symptoms until a late stage but we can spot early lesion. We then check your teeth. We may or may not take x-rays, depending whether or not the dentist feels you need them.
​
Dental disease (tooth decay, gum disease, oral cancer) tends to NOT show symptoms until it’s a big problem. That’s why regular dental health assessments are essential to identify and treat the disease before it becomes a bigger problem. We take photos of any problems noted so we can show you and discuss a solution. Our patients are actively involved in all decisions.
​
We usually recommend doing an oral exam/assessment every 12 months with the dentist and a clean/Scale & Polish every 6 months with the hygienist.
Oral health assessments
At D4 Dentist, we believe that dental restorations should look as natural as they feel. White fillings offer an excellent way to repair cavities and minor tooth damage without compromising your smile’s appearance. Unlike traditional metal fillings, white fillings are crafted to blend seamlessly with your natural tooth colour, giving you a healthy, discreet option for protecting and restoring your teeth.
​
White fillings are made from a durable, tooth-coloured composite resin that bonds securely to your natural tooth structure. They offer several advantages:
​
Natural appearance – White fillings are colour-matched to your teeth, so they blend in naturally.
​
Durable and long-lasting – Modern materials are strong and withstand everyday wear, giving you confidence in your smile.
​
Minimally invasive – Composite fillings require less removal of healthy tooth structure, helping to preserve more of your natural tooth.
​
Mercury-free – White fillings are mercury-free, which some patients prefer for peace of mind.
