Most people should visit the dentist every six months for a check-up and
professional clean.
At Main Street Dental, we recommend regular visits to help prevent tooth decay, gum
disease, and other oral health problems before they become more
serious. Some patients may benefit from more frequent reviews
depending on their oral health, medical history, or specific dental needs.
Regular check-ups help maintain healthy teeth, gums, and a confident
smile.
You should see a dentist urgently if you experience:
At Main Street Dental, urgent dental issues are assessed promptly to relieve pain,
treat infection, and prevent further complications. Early treatment can
save your tooth and protect your overall oral health.
You should see a dentist urgently if you experience severe or persistent
tooth pain, facial swelling, bleeding that does not stop, signs of
infection (pus, fever, bad taste), or trauma to the teeth or jaw. At Main Street Dental,
urgent dental care focuses on relieving pain quickly and treating the
underlying cause to prevent further complications.
What causes tooth pain and how can it be treated?
Tooth pain is commonly caused by tooth decay, gum disease, cracked
or broken teeth, dental infections, or teeth grinding. Treatment depends
on the cause and may include fillings, root canal treatment, gum
therapy, bite adjustments, or pain management. At Main Street Dental, we assess
the source of the pain and provide targeted treatment to restore
comfort and protect your long term oral health.
You can improve your oral health by brushing twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, flossing or using interdental brushes daily, limiting sugary foods and drinks, and avoiding smoking. Maintaining a healthy diet and drinking plenty of water also supports strong teeth and gums. Regular home care combined with check-ups at Main Street Dental helps keep your smile healthy long term.
Dental treatment today is designed to be as comfortable and
gentle as possible. At Main Street Dental, we use modern techniques and effective local anaesthesia to minimise discomfort during treatment. For patients who feel anxious or fearful, we offer
sedation options, including sleep dentistry under general
anaesthesia (GA) and other forms of dental sedation, depending
on suitability. These options allow anxious patients to receive
dental care in a calm, controlled, and stress free environment.
The cost of dental treatment in Australia varies depending on the
type and complexity of care required. At Main Street Dental, treatment fees
are discussed transparently after a thorough examination and
personalised treatment plan. We aim to provide clear information
upfront and offer payment plan options to help make dental care
more accessible. Our team is happy to discuss costs, options,
and flexible payment solutions to support your oral health needs.
