A dentist is a medical specialist that is qualified to treat conditions and carry out procedures that have to do with the teeth and the gums. Dentists specialise in the repair and extraction of teeth as well. Common procedures that dentists carry out include inserting dental implants, whitening teeth, inserting fillings, and many more procedures. Dentists also work on preventing oral and dental disease and carry out regular checkups and scale & polish appointments as well.
Most of the dentists in Australia are general dentists which means that they treat all kinds of diseases in the teeth, mouth, and gums, but there are also specialist dentists such as orthodontists who conduct more surgical treatments like treating crooked teeth and poorly aligned jaws.
It is extremely important to have regular dental checkups to keep up the health of your teeth and gums. The general rule is that you should visit the dentist twice a year. Dental decay is easily preventable by consistently visiting your dentist every 6 months. Additionally, if you’re experiencing any new pain in your teeth or strange sensations then you should consider booking an appointment with your dentist.
The cost of going to the dentist varies depending on the treatment you get. A periodic checkup is the most common dental procedure and typically costs between $156 to $296 in Melbourne depending on the dentist, which includes an examination of your teeth, scale and clean, and fluoride treatment.
Fillings are extremely important for restoring cavities and helping improve the health of a damaged tooth. The average price of a white filling in Melbourne is $250.
Professional teeth whitening from a dental specialist is the safest way to whiten your teeth. In Melbourne, professional teeth-whitening in the clinic can cost up to $210 per tooth, or you can get a take-home teeth whitening kit from the dentist that typically costs around $610. Both are good and safe options, as long as you consult a doctor first.
Both dentists and orthodontists can fit orthodontic pieces, such as Invisalign and braces. However, an orthodontist is much more specialised in diagnosing and treating jaw and teeth alightment problems.
