As your local dentist in Darwin, we offer a range of treatments from general dental, cosmetic dentistry, orthodontic treatment to root canal treatment. A root canal therapy, sometimes also called endodontic treatment, repairs the damaged soft tissue inside a tooth by replacing the damaged pulp with a dental filling. This procedure may sound overwhelming, but it ensures the cause of your pain will cease, and our trained dentists will be with you every step of the way. We see patients for root canal treatments regularly, we’re confident we can get to the root of the issue both as quickly and painlessly as possible.

A dental cleaning appointment may feel like it comes around quickly however it’s important to schedule your checkups and clean regularly with your local dentist to help maintain your oral and overall health. This procedure is simple yet effective. At your dentist appointment, you can expect to receive an oral exam, x-rays if necessary, a scale that removes the tartar buildup on your teeth, followed by floss and polish. In some cases, fluoride may also be applied to help prevent cavities. Don’t forget to speak to your local Darwin dentist about any concerns you may have with your teeth and gums so they can look out for those issues during your check-up exam.

Dental hygienists are highly skilled in preventive treatments such as a dental check-up and clean to remove tartar. Tartar forms on your teeth over time and contains bacteria which, if not removed regularly, may lead to tooth decay or even tooth loss. During your cleaning, the dental hygienist will complete a thorough tartar clean using a variety of tools such as an ultrasonic scaler which breaks up and removes the tartar, and hand-held scalers that are used to scrape the tartar off the teeth. A dental hygienist will leave your teeth feeling fresh and clean after the buildup has been removed. You can book in to see an experienced dental hygienist at our National Dental Care Darwin dental clinic.

It’s recommended your child has their first oral exam by the age of two to ensure there are no serious issues with their teeth. Regular dental cleanings and check-ups are important for preventing tooth decay and cavities, as well as identifying any potential oral health issues early on. A dental hygienist will clean the child's teeth and may apply fluoride to help prevent cavities. The dentist will examine the child's teeth and gums and provide guidance on how to properly care for them. Regular dental visits can help establish good oral hygiene habits that will last a lifetime.
