Our dentists are all members of the Australian Dental Association (ADA), and we strive to constantly upgrade our skills and knowledge through further study. It{s our aim to provide the latest techniques in preventive, restorative and cosmetic dentistry.Dental Check-UpYou should get a dental check-up every six months. People at a greater risk for oral diseases should have dental check-ups more than twice a year. Going to your regular check-up will help to keep your gums and teeth healthy as well as detect any early problems such as cavities. The best way to prevent bad breath and periodontal (gum) disease, which has been linked to heart disease, is to visit your dentist on a regular basis.Oral HealthWith diabetes there is a thickening of blood vessels. This can impair the flow of nutrients and removal of wastes, which can weaken the gums, making them more susceptible to infection. In addition, if diabetes is poorly controlled, higher glucose levels in the mouth fluids will encourage the growth of bacteria that can cause gum disease. So, for diabetics regular dental check-ups are vital.Antibiotic CoverThe mouth is full of bacteria, which remains harmless while it is inside the mouth. But complications can occur if this bacteria enters the blood stream through the gums. If you have a heart murmur, heart valve replacement or artificial joint (such as knee or hip replacements) Advanced Dental Centre will prescribe a course of antibiotics before a major dental procedure. This will prevent bacteria from lodging in the problem area.
