This is one of our most asked questions before a treatment. Our dental team aims to make your treatment as comfortable as possible for you. With our on-site sedation facilities, we're able to provide anaesthesia when required. If you are concerned about pain during or after treatment, please talk to your dentist as they are more than happy to answer any questions.
At Hyalite Dental, we accept most payment methods, including Visa, Mastercard, AMEX (no fee), cash, cheque and EFT. We are also a preferred treatment provider for Medibank, Bupa, Nib and CBHS. We also offer Zip Money, which is a buy now pay later way to be treated with no interest for 6-12 months.
If you have a cavity, please make an appointment with our dentist. We will assess the severity of the cavity and provide you with our recommendation. Fillings are generally used for smaller hollows, while crowns provide more stability for larger cavities.
The purpose of having your teeth professionally cleaned is to help keep your gums healthy. While cleaning will reduce any stains on your teeth, we recommend booking in for a teeth whitening treatment if making them whiter is your goal.
We understand! At Hyalite Dental, we regularly work with patients who are anxious about visiting the dentist. Our dental team are friendly and caring. If you let them know you are feeling anxious, they will help you feel more comfortable with your treatment
It is recommended that children have their first dental check-up at one year of age, unless an issue occurs prior to their first birthday. If you have any concerns, our dental team are happy to assist you..
Even if you have pristine oral health, we recommend you visit us every six months for a check-up and routine clean. This will help us to catch any minor problems before they become more serious.
Any situation where you have ongoing bleeding around your gums or have severe pain in your mouth, please call our emergency after-hours number.
The most important part is that you use a toothbrush. Our dentist will be able to advise you what type of toothbrush is best suited to your needs. We can also show you the best way to brush and floss.
Great question! Everyone knows brushing and flossing daily is important for the health of your teeth and gums. Did you know avoiding sugar and tobacco, eating a healthy, balanced diet and using products that contain fluoride will also help maintain your oral hygiene? If you want to keep your teeth whiter for longer, we also recommend avoiding coffee and red wine, or drinking them with a straw.
