Preventative Dentistry

As the name would suggest, preventative dentistry is the field of dentistry that’s concerned with the prevention of dental disease. At Hunter Family Dentistry, our preventative dental treatments are designed to prevent cavities, gum disease and detect early orthodontic issues with children. Our dentists provide a dental prophylaxis, which is a thorough teeth cleaning procedure. By removing food debris and plaque, we work to halt and prevent the progression of gingivitis and periodontal disease. As the proverb goes: prevention is better than a cure. So, get in touch with our friendly dental staff at Hunter Family Dentistry in Terrigal today to invest in your oral health. We look forward to seeing you.

Restorative Dentistry

Restorative dentistry is the diagnosis, rehabilitation and management of dental diseases. Our kind dentists provide an oral exam to determine if fillings need replacing and/or teeth require more protection. By using an x-ray, we can discover cavity severity and determine whether crowns or fillings are needed. Once restorative treatments have been made, our dentists focus on general and preventative dentistry, where we aim to reduce the number of dental restorations required in your lifetime. In doing so, this allows you to keep your beautiful, vibrant smile, while still maintaining the healthy structure of your teeth and gums. Keeping your teeth for the rest of your life with minimal intervention is of the utmost importance. Preventative dental care greatly minimises your risk of developing tooth decay and periodontal disease (gum disease) and works towards maintaining your natural teeth for life.
