Treatments

General dentistry

Family dentist care in Dandenong for teens, parents, and adults — restores what needs repair and still starts with prevention. Hygiene, fillings, crowns, and root canal or extractions are quoted in writing, explained in plain language, and paced so you stay informed, including after a long gap.

The typical visit

A typical check is calm, clear, and unhurried

We take a history, look at gums and restorations, and explain options in plain language. You stay informed throughout, whether you are new here, booking after the kids, or it has been years since the last clean.

  1. Talk first

    We ask what has been bothering you, which medicines you take, and how the mouth feels day to day. Nothing starts until we have heard you.

  2. Look together

    We check teeth, gums, and existing restorations, then talk through what we see in words you can follow. You can ask as we go.

  3. Take a plan home

    You leave with clear next steps. Treatment that is not part of a simple exam comes with a written quote before we begin.

For adults

General dentistry for parents and adults in Dandenong

This is the adult side of the same David Street clinic. General dentistry at Fresh Smile in Dandenong still starts with prevention where we can, quotes repair in writing, and keeps children's appointments separate so a first dental visit never has to share the room with someone else's treatment. Hygiene, fillings, crowns, and root canal each have their own page.

Adult services in one clinic

Hygiene and preventive care is the usual starting point. Tooth coloured fillings repair decay while keeping healthy tooth. Crowns protect teeth that a filling can no longer support. Root canal and extractions are for infected or unrestorable teeth.

Each page explains the visit, the quote, and when that treatment is actually the right next step.

Quotes, extras cover, and a long gap

Treatment that is not part of a simple exam comes with a written quote. We itemise care so you can claim extras cover. Rebates depend on your policy. Call 03 8909 9337 if you want fees or CDBS talked through before you book.

If it has been years, start with a look. Plenty of Dandenong parents book their own hygiene after they have settled the children in. We explain without rushing you into fillings on the same day unless something cannot wait.

One dental home for the household

Children's dentistry stays next door in the same building, with parents in the room and a slower first visit. Adult repair can still happen here without turning the children's hour into a watching-someone-get-numb experience.

Tell us if you are nervous, if gums bleed, or if a tooth has cracked. Book online or phone the clinic. We would rather explain twice than start treatment you have not agreed to.

General services

Care that keeps mouths comfortable and teeth working

Each general dentistry visit at Fresh Smile has its own page — hygiene, fillings, crowns, root canal and extractions — and we recommend each one only when it fits your risk, comfort, and what the tooth still needs. Read the service page before you book if you want the visit spelled out.

Book appointment

Tooth coloured fillings

Treat decay with a written quote first, and keep as much healthy tooth as we can, where the material will last.

Crowns and restorations

Stainless steel crowns for baby teeth and tooth-coloured crowns for teens and adults — when another large filling is not enough.

Root canal and extractions

Save an infected tooth when we can, or remove it gently, with a written quote and a clear talk about what comes next.

Who it is for

Adults, families, and later years

Parents, carers, and older adults are welcome. The same clinic can look after a whole household over years, not only one appointment.

Comfort focused care that protects teeth, gums, and the ability to eat well as the years go on.

Between check-ups

What helps between appointments

Whether you are booking a check up, hygiene, or treatment, general care does not stop at the door. These are the habits and warning signs we talk through with adults at our David Street clinic.

Before you book

Questions adults ask about general care

Quiet answers about check ups, a long gap, tooth coloured fillings, written quotes, extras cover, and feeling nervous as an adult at our Dandenong clinic.

You stay informed

You are part of the visit, not left guessing. Ask anything. We would rather explain twice than start treatment you have not agreed to.
