Composite Restorations (White Fillings)
Composite restorations are an effective way to repair cracked or broken teeth and replace old fillings. These restorations are crafted using high-quality materials that blend seamlessly with your natural teeth, ensuring a beautiful and functional result.
At Mittagong Dental Care, Dr. Michael Burgess carefully selects from a range of shades to match your teeth to deliver a seamless, natural appearance. Composite restorations are designed to restore the strength and integrity of your teeth while enhancing your smile. With precise techniques and attention to detail, we provide durable, long-lasting solutions tailored to your dental needs.
Teeth Extractions
Tooth extractions, also known as exodontia, are sometimes necessary to address issues such as severe decay and impacted wisdom teeth, or to create space for orthodontic treatment. At Mittagong Dental Care, Dr. Michael Burgess offers extractions in the clinic.
Dr Burgess is experienced in the area of dental extractions. As a tutor at the University of Sydney Dental Student Clinics, he guides future dental surgeons. You can rest assured you are in the most capable hands when you come and see Dr Burgess for an extraction. Whether for wisdom teeth or other dental concerns, you can trust in professional care and a supportive environment.
Regular Check Ups
Regular dental check-ups are essential for maintaining good oral health and overall well-being. During a check-up, your dentist will thoroughly examine your teeth, gums, tongue, and oral cavity to monitor their condition and detect any early signs of issues.
Check-ups are also an opportunity to discuss any concerns you may have about your oral health. By identifying problems early, such as plaque build-up or gum disease, treatments can be less invasive and more cost-effective. Dentists can also assess oral hygiene habits and provide tailored advice to improve them, helping to reduce future dental treatments and ensure long-term health.
X-Rays
Dental X-rays are a crucial tool for understanding the health of your teeth and gums beyond what is visible during a standard examination. Taken as part of regular check-ups, X-rays provide detailed insights into areas below the gum line, such as tooth roots, bone health, and early signs of decay or infection.
This valuable information helps dentists identify potential problems early and determine the most appropriate course of treatment for your individual needs. By using X-rays to detect issues that might otherwise go unnoticed, patients can benefit from timely, effective care and maintain better overall oral health.
Scale & Polish
A scale and polish is a non-invasive treatment designed to remove tartar, or hardened plaque, from the surface of your teeth. Tartar can accumulate despite regular brushing, and its removal is essential to maintaining healthy teeth and gums.
During this procedure, the dentist carefully removes the tartar and gently buffs the teeth, leaving them smooth and plaque-free. For significant tartar build-up, a separate visit to a dental hygienist may be recommended for a more thorough clean. Regular scaling and polishing help prevent gum disease, protect tooth enamel, and ensure a fresher, healthier smile over time.
Restorative Services
Restorative dental services focus on replacing or repairing teeth that have been lost or damaged due to trauma, disease, or decay. These treatments aim to restore the functionality of your teeth, helping you chew, swallow, and speak comfortably.
Common restorative procedures include dentures, implants, bridges, fillings, crowns, and root canals. Your dentist will assess your individual needs and recommend the most appropriate treatment to achieve the best results. By restoring the structure and function of your teeth, these treatments improve both oral health and quality of life, supporting a more comfortable and effective daily routine.
