Dental phobia is a common problem, and one that we are trained to help you get through. We want you to feel as comfortable as possible if you are having a dental crisis. We are here to help you, don\u2019t hold back.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Natural-looking fillings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Here at our <strong>dentist in Walkerston<\/strong> we use the latest composite resins on the market for fillings. This resin is designed to be strong and look natural. We use this composite resin material to fill any holes of a small or medium size, repairing areas of decay that may be causing pain. The beauty of using composite resin for fillings is that we are able to match the colour of the filling to the colour of your tooth, meaning the repair should be almost unidentifiable.<\/p>\n<p><strong> Wisdom teeth and tooth extractions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Appearing in people\u2019s late teens, 20s or 30s, wisdom teeth can cause havoc to what is seemingly a settled set of teeth. Often there is too little room available in people\u2019s mouths to properly accommodate these late arrivals and they need to be extracted. This can be done safely, either by a <strong>dentist in Walkerston<\/strong> in our practice with nitrous oxide (happy gas), or for complicated cases, under general anaesthesia at the nearby Mater Hospital.<\/p>\n<p>For all other teeth, we will try to help you preserve your natural teeth in all cases. Tooth extraction is a final resort and can be carried out quickly under local anaesthetic and we can provide various tooth replacement options for you to consider.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here at Walkerston Dental in Walkerston GP SuperClinic, Queensland, we advise most of our patients to visit us every six months for a check-up examination along with a deep clean scale and polish.
