ABOUT
Our Oral Health & Dental Unit is a state wide service which caters for the whole of Victoria and visiting interstate clients. We provide a holistic approach to oral health. Our core business is all aspects of dentistry. The treatments we provide are general assessments,check-up's including x-rays, fillings, scales and clean, extractions, anterior endodontic and dentures. Mouthguards can be done but the patient has to pay the laboratory fee. Any specialist services such as Orthodontic (Braces), Oral Surgery (Removal of difficult or impacted teeth), Periodontic (Gums) and Molar Endodontic (Root canal treatment) we can refer our clients out to have these treatments done and any payments the patient has to pay.
Each client that visits the dentist or dental therapist receives dental hygiene products toothbrushes, toothpaste, dental floss, mouth rinse and pamphlets and oral hygiene instructions during there visit.
Appointments
The Oral Health & Dental Unit works by an appointment system only so if you wish to see either the dentist or dental therapist you need to make an appointment. You can do this by contacting the dental unit on (03) 9419 3680.
Emergency appointments for toothaches are triage and given appointments the only thing is that they are double booked which means that there could be up to a 1-2 hour wait depending on how many patients are booked in for that day.
