A general dentist is your primary dental care provider. When you visit your dentist for a toothache or any other dental complain, your dentist will examine you and do any simple procedure required.
If you have a complicated problem, they will determine if you need to be seen by a specialist. They will complete any / all simple treatments needed and will then refer you to a specialist.
Gum disease is an inflammation of the gums that can progress to affect your bone that surrounds and supports the teeth.
It is the initial stage of gum disease and the easiest to treat.
The direct cause of gingivitis is PLAQUE– the soft, sticky, colourless film of bacteria that forms constantly on the teeth and gums.
If the plaque is not removed by daily brushing and flossing, it produces toxins (poisons) that can irritate the gum tissue, causing gingivitis.
At this early stage of gum disease, damage can be reversed, since the bone and connective tissue that hold the teeth in place are not yet affected. However, untreated gingivitis can become periodontitis and cause permanent damage to your teeth and jaw.
Good oral hygiene is essential. Professional cleaning is also extremely important because once plaque has hardened and built up, or become tartar, only a dentist or dental hygienist can remove it.

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it could be an indication of gum disease. It is recommended to visit us so we can treat the underlying issues which could save expensive treatments or loss of tooth or teeth later down the track.
Our regular check-up and clean program has been designed to detect these issues at a very early stage and save you from the discomfort associated with gum diseases.
Six monthly checkups allows you to maintain your oral hygiene as well as detect issues early on, which usually means less treatment.
Delaying your visit until you have a toothache can be more painful and costly.
In most cases bad breath originates in the mouth and can be treated with improved dental hygiene. In some cases, however, bad breath can be a sign of a more serious condition such as diabetic ketoacidosis, kidney failure, or an infection.
If your bad breath isn’t improving with home treatment, consult our general dentists in Epping and we will diagnose and treat your condition.
During your examination our general dentists in Wollert will check for cavities along with any plaque and tartar through X-rays if necessary.
After your examination our dentists will proceed with the cleaning process. The process of cleaning is known as Scaling. The process is used with special equipment, typically with ultrasonic scalers which provide a deep clean within the gum line.
