A wide variety of dental treatments in Mitcham.
Let us answer your questions or concerns.
At the Mitcham Dental Clinic, we offer a wide range of dental treatments from cosmetic procedures to general day-to-day health improvements. We are often asked the same questions so we’ve put together some answers for your reference. If your question is not answered below, please get in touch with our team!
We offer an in-chair or take home treatment to whiten teeth. Contact us for more information.
Dental implants are a permanent way to replace missing teeth so you can smile, eat and speak with confidence. A dental implant is a titanium screw implanted into the jaw bone so an artificial tooth can be attached and act as a natural tooth. It is the closest alternative to your original teeth. Contact us for more information.
There are multiple treatment options if you have suffered from the loss of more than one tooth. These include: bridges and crowns, implants (including mini-implants and All-On-Four) and SnapOn Smile. Arrange a consultation with us to see which treatment would work best for you.
Yes, we can restore your outdated fillings with tooth-coloured composite resin fillings that will restore the aesthetics of your smile. Composite fillings are a durable option and pose no health concerns to the body. These fillings are easily completed in the one visit. To learn more about composite fillings, contact us today.
At the Mitcham Dental Clinic, we employ preventative oral health methods to ensure the health of your teeth. We also have an in-house hygienist who scales any built-up calculus away from the teeth and gums, using deep cleans and polishes.
Most importantly, our hygienist can educate patients on preventative measures to ensure oral and gum health. It is vital to have regular check-ups to ensure teeth and gum health is in order so that no further health concerns can arise. If your teeth are in need of salvaging, we provide restorative treatments to save as much of the natural tooth as possible. Contact us to learn more about preventative oral health today.
If you sometimes wake up tired and breathless in the middle of the night, you may suffer from Sleep Apnoea. Sleep Apnoea occurs when the tissues in the back of the mouth become so relaxed that they collapse, blocking the airways and disrupting breathing patterns. Contact us to learn more about the treatment options we can provide.

Cold Sore Related Questions
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) , we should only see patients with active herpetic lesions (cold sores) when they require emergency treatment for dental conditions or treatment of the cold sore lesions themselves- did you know we have a laser that can help your sores heal faster? No other treatments are recommended whilst lesions are active.
Cold sores are blisters around the mouth and nose, caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV).
Cold sores will get better by themselves except in cases where they get infected by bacteria, occur in the eye or become widespread in people whose immune system is suppressed.
The spreading of this disease in the dental setting is well documented. The vesicular fluid has the most condensed virus and it diminishes as the blisters rupture. Viral shedding continues from even a healing lesion which is asymptomatic or can be spread when blisters are not present, particularly in saliva. There is also evidence of transmission of HSV to health-care workers from patients and from dental workers to patients. Unfortunately gloves and glasses are not a complete protection against this virus. So to help keep your dental experience comfortable and stop the spread of the virus we recommend postponing your appointment, unless you catch the sores early and would like us to treat the sores themselves.
The use of painless dental laser therapy can reduce the severity and duration of cold sore outbreaks. Unlike other cold sore treatments, like creams or ointments, lasers get to the root of the problem. They destroy the herpes simplex virus that actually causes cold sores. Laser treatment as soon as you feel the symptoms of a cold sore can in some cases prevent the sore from developing. The outbreaks can be minimised so they do not occur as often, and the symptoms can be alleviated to provide more comfort for the individual.
