Nurture Generations of Healthy Smiles with Your Trusted Dentist in Atwell & Cockburn

The frequency of regular dental check-ups can vary depending on individual dental needs. However, as a general guideline, it is recommended to schedule a dental check-up at least once every six months. These regular visits are crucial for maintaining oral health, as they allow for early detection and treatment of potential issues, such as cavities or gum disease.

During these check-ups, your dentist will examine your teeth and gums for any signs of problems. They will recommend the necessary treatment to address your needs or preventive care to help avoid future dental problems.

It’s important to note that some individuals may require more frequent visits, particularly those with existing dental problems or at higher risk of oral diseases. For more information, please consult your dentist at Atwell Smiles Dental.

Our dental clinic invests in the following dental technologies:

• Rotary endodontics.
  This modern technology is used in root canal therapy. It employs electrically powered instruments, which allow for more precise, efficient, and comfortable endodontic treatments than traditional manual methods.
• Digital X-rays.
  A digital X-ray is an advanced imaging tool used for dental diagnostics. It produces clear and detailed images, which are crucial for a precise diagnosis. Moreover, digital X-rays significantly reduce radiation exposure compared to conventional X-ray techniques, making them safer for our patients. This innovative technology is integral to thorough examination and meticulous treatment planning.
• OPG (orthopantomogram) or full mouth X-ray on site.
  It provides a panoramic view of all the teeth of the upper and lower jaw on a single film. This is crucial for comprehensive assessment and treatment planning, particularly for dental implants, braces, tooth extractions, and wisdom teeth issues.
• Clear aligners.
  Clear aligners offer a modern alternative to teeth straightening. It uses custom-fitted, removable trays to guide the teeth in their proper position. This appliance suits individuals who prefer a subtle approach to orthodontic treatment.

Each of these technologies significantly contributes to treatment precision, patient comfort, and overall quality of our dental treatments. They allow us to offer our patients the latest advancements in dental care.
