Frequently Asked Questions
What happens after a general check-up and clean at Killara Dental?
After your general check-up and clean, we will identify any areas that may require further dental care and discuss your treatment options with you. This helps you understand your current oral health and any recommended next steps. Where needed, we will create a personalised treatment plan to address any concerns and support you in maintaining good long-term oral health.
Does teeth cleaning hurt?
Teeth cleaning is generally a comfortable experience for most patients. However, some people may experience mild discomfort if they have sensitive teeth or have not had a dental visit for some time. In these cases, your dentist may recommend a local anaesthetic to minimise discomfort. Regular check-ups and cleaning can help reduce sensitivity over time by preventing excessive plaque and tartar build-up.
Which suburbs do you offer general check-up and clean services to?
General check-up and clean services are available to patients across East Killara and the surrounding North Shore suburbs, including Lindfield, Pymble, Roseville, Turramurra, St Ives and nearby areas. Patients from across Sydney may also attend for ongoing preventive dental care and treatment.
Teeth Cleaning Process
Dental cleaning at our East Killara clinic involves a thorough examination of your teeth and gums, followed by gentle scaling and polishing. We use a special ultrasonic scaler that vibrates against the teeth to effectively remove plaque, tartar and debris without damaging the tooth enamel. Once the teeth are clean, the surfaces are polished, which can improve the appearance of your smile. Lastly, the mouth is rinsed, leaving your breath feeling fresh and clean.
If necessary, we may recommend another appointment for deep scaling. This process removes hardened deposits (tartar) that have built up beneath the gums. Removing tartar supports the health of your gums and can help reduce the risk of gum disease and bad breath. If left untreated, these issues may worsen over time and lead to more advanced periodontal concerns.
