Frequently asked questions

  • Yes, if it’s done under the guidance of a dental professional AKA us. DIY kits and mystery gels from the internet? Not so much. We make sure whitening is safe, tailored to you, and gives you the bright smile without the regret.

  • Usually around 60 minutes. Enough time for us to get to know your teeth, answer your questions, and map out a plan. We pride ourselves on taking no shortcuts to ensure you leave with a full understanding of what’s needed moving forward.

  • Absolutely. Toothache at 3am? Broken filling before a big meeting? We’ve seen it all. Give us a call and we’ll do our best to get you sorted quickly.

  • We can spot surface issues with our eyes, but x-rays let us see what’s coming. They pick up tiny cavities, hidden infections, or bone changes early - so you get solutions before things turn into painful (and expensive) surprises

  • Totally normal (and more common than you’d think!). We take things at your pace, explain what’s happening, and make sure you feel comfortable. No judgement here — promise.

  • For most patients, a clean feels more like a gentle polish than anything painful. If there is inflammation you might feel a bit of sensitivity, but our team works carefully to keep you comfortable. The fresh, smooth feeling afterwards is the real highlight.

  • Brushing is great (and strongly recommended), but even the best toothbrush misses spots. Plaque and tartar can build up like that one stubborn stain on your white shirt. That’s where we come in with the pro gear.

  • They’re the guardians of your gums. Hygienists focus on cleaning, prevention, and education to keep your smile healthy and help you avoid bigger dental dramas down the track.

  • We sure do. Some wisdom teeth behave, others like to stir up trouble. If yours are causing issues, we can assess and remove them if needed. For some work, a referral may be required.

  • Coverage can vary, but we’ll help you figure it out. In fact, we have a direct method of getting you in touch with Fair Health Care Alliance. These guys are able to review your cover and see whether you’re on the best option, or whether there could be more suitable policy that gives more back (it might even cost you less).

  • Right here 3/74 Prospect Road, Prospect SA 5082. Easy to find, great parking!

  • Whether you’re an early bird or sneaking in after work, we’ll try to have a slot that suits.
