General Dentistry

At Care Dental Cashmere you will receive a very thorough examination and we will be educating our patient about their oral health, current condition, any problems they need to know about and all available options for treatment. This would include the pros and cons of each option, the length of time the treatment is likely to take, a detailed fee estimate, and possible negative outcomes if treatment is not carried out.

We understand the common fear or anxiousness our clients may feel when visiting a dentist. For this reason, we do our very best to make sure that everyone’s dental visit becomes easier each time and that all our patients walk out the door with a smile on their face. It is also our goal, as your first choice for expert dentistry in Brisbane, to ensure a thorough general dentistry service.

Taking care of your teeth can be a difficult task to maintain, especially given that only a portion of each tooth is visible to the human eye. For this reason, we take radiographs to assist in correctly diagnosing any concerns that our patients may have and to assists in the detection of any early decay or infection which can further prevent any major problems in the future. There are many types of x-rays used and, as your local dentist in Brisbane, Care Dental Cashmere have the equipment to provide these for our patients to eliminate the need for travelling or waiting for radiographs to be produced.

An OPG, or normally referred to as a full mouth X-Ray, is a one X-Ray exposure that shows the whole mouth. This provides us with a quick glance at the condition of your teeth and allows us to predict if they are healthy or not. It also shows how much damage gum disease may have caused to the support system of the teeth. The OPG also shows the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and the changes in your jaw joint, as well as showing possible tumours, cysts, and more which allows for the prompt treatment to correct these issues if found.

Other types of X-Rays used are Bitewing X-Rays that detect small cavities between the teeth and Periapical X-Rays which are used to view the entire length of the tooth and are very valuable when completing a root canal treatment. In some cases, there may be the need for a 3D X-Ray which requires special procedures and equipment that only very few centres operate. All of this, and more, is why you should choose Care Dental Cashmere as your local dentist of choice from Brisbane general dentistry services.

Instead of using the traditional, large, old-fashioned needles to apply local anaesthetic, our professional team have a new and modern technique called the STA machine. The Single Tooth Anesthesia (STA) System is the first computer-controlled local dental anaesthetic system. The STA system continuously measures and monitors the pressure of anaesthetic solution as it is being applied. Even before the STA system is used the dentists apply a topical numbing gel to the area to further eliminate any possibility of discomfort.

Nitrous oxide, otherwise known as happy gas, is also a very common and safe choice for helping anxious patients to relax. It’s also very effective with children that are old enough and cooperative enough to make the effort to steadily inhale through their noses. It works by supplying a mixture of nitrous oxide and oxygen and is administered through a nosepiece, which the patient will breathe through, and will make you happy and relaxed whilst your general dental treatment is being completed.
