Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

At Yes Dental we are committed to keeping our patients informed. Here are answers to some of the most frequently asked questions. If you have a question that isn't covered here, please don't hesitate to reach out to us directly.

How often should I visit the dentist?
Most people should see their dentist twice a year or once every six months. These regular check-ups ensure your oral health is in top shape, and potential issues are caught early. Depending on your specific oral health, we may suggest more frequent visits.
Why are regular dental check-ups vital?
Regular dental check-ups are crucial for cleaning and early detection of potential problems like cavities, gum disease, and even oral cancer. Identifying these issues early means treatments can be less invasive and more cost-effective.
How do I book an appointment?
We value your time, making the booking process a breeze. You can ring our clinic directly or use our easy online booking system. If you have specific concerns, please mention them when booking.
What should I do if I have a dental emergency?
Dental emergencies can be confronting. If you experience one, ring our clinic straight away. We'll provide immediate advice and prioritize getting you in as soon as possible.
Do you offer teeth whitening?
Absolutely, we provide top-notch teeth whitening services. Our professional treatments are not only effective but also safe, ensuring the health of your teeth.
How long does a teeth clean take?
A thorough clean usually takes between 30 minutes to an hour. This allows us to ensure your teeth are sparkling and to check for any underlying concerns.
What payment methods do you accept?
For your convenience, our clinic accepts a range of payment options, including cash, major credit cards, and several dental insurance plans. We also have payment plans for particular treatments; please ask for more details.
How can I maintain good dental health at home?
Regular brushing (twice daily) and flossing (once daily) are essential. Using an antiseptic mouthwash can further combat harmful bacteria. A balanced diet with limited sugary foods and no tobacco is also key.
Is teeth whitening safe?
Definitely. When performed by professionals, teeth whitening is safe and effective. We use TGA-approved products and adhere to best practices.
Can I eat after getting a filling?
It's best to wait until any numbness from the anesthesia wears off. For the first 24 hours, steer clear of very hot, cold, or sticky foods to allow the filling to set.
Do you offer Invisalign?
Yes, our clinic provides Invisalign, a popular and discreet orthodontic solution. It's a clear alternative to traditional braces, and we'd be happy to discuss if it's the right choice for your teeth straightening needs.
At what age should my child first visit the dentist?
It's a good idea to bring your child in by their first birthday or when their first tooth comes through. Early visits can set positive dental habits for life.
How can I prevent cavities?
Avoiding cavities involves regular dental hygiene, dentist visits, and a balanced diet with limited sugars.
Do you offer dental implants?
Yes, we do. Dental implants are a long-lasting and natural-looking option for missing teeth. Our team ensures they look and function just like your real teeth.
What's the difference between veneers and crowns?
Veneers are thin covers placed on the front of teeth for cosmetic reasons. Crowns, however, cover the entire tooth, providing both functional and aesthetic benefits.
Are digital x-rays safe?
Digital x-rays are a game-changer, exposing patients to significantly less radiation than traditional methods. They're not only safer but also provide clearer images.
Do you treat gum disease?
Absolutely, our clinic offers treatments for all stages of gum disease, from early gingivitis to advanced periodontitis.
What should I do about persistent bad breath?
Regular oral hygiene can often sort out bad breath. However, if it continues, it could indicate a dental condition, and it's best to come in for a check.
Can I book a weekend dental appointment?
Understanding the busy lives of our patients, we offer flexible hours, including weekend bookings. It's best to check our current hours or ring our clinic.
Do you cater to anxious patients?
We certainly do. We aim to make every visit as comfortable as possible. If you're feeling nervous, please let us know, and we'll explore options like sedation or other relaxation techniques.
Note: Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks.
