Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about dentistry and booking a dentist
How often should I visit the dentist?
Most people should visit a dentist every 6 months for a check-up and professional cleaning. Those with gum disease or high cavity risk may need more frequent visits.
Is a root canal painful?
Modern root canal treatment is performed under local anaesthesia and is generally no more painful than a filling. Most patients experience relief from the toothache that prompted the treatment.
At what age should children first see a dentist?
Children should have their first dental visit by age 1, or within 6 months of their first tooth appearing. Early visits help establish good oral hygiene habits and catch problems early.
