General Dental Treatments In Georgetown, Newcastle
Brite Smiles Dental provides general dental treatments in Georgetown, Newcastle, including white fillings, root canal therapy and tooth extractions.
What Are General Dental Treatments?
General Treatments We Offer
White Dental Fillings
If a tooth has decay, a crack or a small area of damage, a white filling can help repair it.
The material is matched closely to your natural tooth, so the repair blends in without the dark look of a metal filling.
Root Canal Therapy
Root canal therapy may help save a tooth when infection or damage has reached the inside.
The infected tissue is removed, the inside is cleaned and the tooth is treated so it can stay in place where suitable.
General And Wisdom Teeth Extractions
Sometimes a tooth cannot be repaired or is causing an ongoing problem.
An extraction may be needed for a badly damaged tooth, an infected tooth or a wisdom tooth that is painful or affecting nearby teeth.
Your dentist will assess the area first and explain whether removal is the right next step.
When Should You See A Dentist For A Dental Problem?
If a tooth is painful, cracked, sensitive or damaged, it is worth having it checked before the problem becomes harder to treat.
At Brite Smiles Dental in Georgetown, Newcastle, we assess the tooth first and explain what may be causing the issue.
You may need a filling, root canal treatment or extraction depending on the condition of the tooth.
If the tooth is missing, visit our Missing Teeth page.
If the tooth may need a crown, visit our Crowns And Bridges page.
For severe pain, swelling or another urgent dental problem, call 02 4968 9666 or visit our Emergency Dental Care page.
