BIG NEWS .... Our carpark is under new management and now there are LOTS OF FREE SPACES for you to park. The entrance is under Tower 2 (yellow tower) off Lawson Street. There is no signage just look for the yellow triangle. You get 2 hours free. If you have a longer appointment with us we can arrange for security to let you out free of charge.

GET A CHECK UP BEFORE YEAR END

If you haven't seen us all year it's not too late for a preventative check up and professional teeth cleaning. Patients in a health fund should maximise their rebates before the end of the year.

TOP DENTAL TIPS FOR KIDS

+ Get your kids brushing early - even before their teeth have emerged properly you can use the brush to massage their gums

+ When their teeth do emerge brush them twice a day

+ Be a good dental role model for your kids and try not to pass on any negative feelings to them

+ Limit their intake of sugar including natural sugars found in fruit juice

+ Supervise brushing and flossing until about 7 years of age

+ Change their toothbrush every 3 months

+ Visit the dentist with your children at least once a year and get them onto a preventative program at an early age

+ If your child won't co-operate with teeth brushing hand them your tooth brush and get them to brush your teeth while you brush their's. Hopefully it will distract them and become a fun activity.
