Quality and Professional Dental Care From Our Friendly Dental Team in Hervey Bay

Dentists suggest that patients visit for checkups every six months or twice a year. However, depending on your oral health issues, more frequent trips to the dentist may be needed. Ask your Mary River Dental practitioner what frequency of visits would be suitable for you and your mouth’s needs.

Regular visits to the dentist are essential for many reasons. These appointments allow your Mary River Dental practitioner to check for any signs of oral diseases that may not be visible to the naked eye, such as cavities or periodontal disease. During these visits, you can receive advice on improving your oral hygiene routine, have a professional cleaning, and receive treatments such as fillings. Regular visits also allow any current dental problems to be monitored and managed quickly before they become more serious or require major intervention. By visiting your Mary River Dental practitioner regularly, you can keep your mouth healthy and prevent unnecessary pain or inconvenience. We can also give advice on maintaining oral health at home to help keep teeth and gums healthy.

At Mary River Dental, we understand that visiting the dentist can be intimidating for some patients. That’s why we make everyone feel comfortable and relaxed in our office. During your checkup, your dentist will examine your teeth, gums, and jaw to check for any signs of decay or disease. They may also take digital x-rays or impressions to evaluate your teeth’s condition further. Your dentist will discuss any issues they find with you and recommend a suitable treatment.

We recommend you bring your child for their first dental checkup when their first tooth erupts or when they reach one year of age. This allows us to begin monitoring the development of their teeth, provide early preventive care, and teach them good oral hygiene habits. We also want to check what’s going on with their teeth before they develop cavities or other problems.
