General Dentistry

Check and Cleans

Check and Cleans

One of our dentists or tooth fairies will take a good look at the key areas in your mouth, especially your teeth and gums. To make sure you remain in tip top shape, and so we can screen for early signs of tooth and gum disease, sometimes we'll require X-rays for closer looks. Then, we'll descale and polish your teeth, and apply a fluoride treatment for extra protection against tooth decay. Your mouth will feel so fresh and clean after a session with our team.

Fillings

Fillings

White composite fillings look natural and can be colour matched to the surrounding teeth. 


Tooth Fairy & Co. no longer use amalgam/silver fillings at our dental practice.

Crowns

Crowns

A crown (sometimes known as a cap) is custom moulded and is the strongest

remedy for the loss of natural tooth structure. They can be made of porcelain or gold.

A crown is completed over two visits.

Bridges

Bridges

A bridge consists of two crowns placed on the teeth on either side of a gap which is

created by the loss of a tooth with a pontic (false tooth) attached and supported

between the crowns. This is just one option for tooth replacement.

X – Rays

X – Rays

At Tooth Fairy & Co. we use digital X-rays, which subject patients to much less radiation, and use lead aprons for taking intra-oral X-rays. We also have the facility on-site to take OPG panoramic X-ray images for a more complete view.

Dentures

Dentures

We all deserve a confident, healthy smile and the ability to make positive first impressions. Look and feel your best!


Partial Dentures

If you are only missing a few teeth, partial dentures are an excellent option to restore your dental function and fix your gappy smile.


Complete Dentures

Complete dentures are made if all the teeth have been removed. They restore function and are custom made with your input to achieve the best natural look, giving the wearer confidence.

Wisdom Teeth Removal

Wisdom Teeth Removal

Not everyone needs their wisdom teeth removed, but if you are having pain or discomfort, we can do an assessment and, if needed, make arrangements for removal either with us, or refer you to an oral surgeon for removal under general anaesthetic.

Gum Disease

Gum Disease

Also known as periodontal disease, if undiagnosed or left untreated periodontal disease can result in the loss of adult teeth and jaw bone and is known to have a major impact on a person’s overall health.

Grinding and Clenching

Grinding and clenching can lead to excessive use of the teeth and jaw muscles. As such, it's not uncommon to start to see signs of:

  • Broken, flat or worn down teeth
  • Jaw pain and joint disorder, such as TMD/TMJD
  • Frequent headaches
  • Broken fillings and crowns

Treatment options for grinding and clenching include wearing an oral splint appliance, medications to relax your muscles, relaxation techniques or even cognitive behavioural therapy.

Root Canal

Root Canal

Sometimes it's best to get to the root of your problem. With an infected tooth, preservation may require the removal of the nerve inside your tooth. 


Root canal treatment is usually completed over three visits, and once complete we strongly recommend placing a crown over the tooth to strengthen and protect it. 

Dental Implants

Dental Implants

Dental Implants are a another way to replace a missing tooth. Unlike partial dentures or a bridge, a dental implant consists of a titanium screw permanently fixed in the jawbone with a crown attached to the top of it, and has ultimate stability and a more natural feel.

Amalgam Removal

Amalgam Removal

Whether you are removing amalgam fillings because you're worried about mercury-

based fillings, or because you don't like the way they look, we have strict guidelines and use the utmost care to ensure minimal potential mercury exposure.

Tooth Fairy Appointments

It's normal for children to be nervous about going to the dentist - there are all sorts of machines and procedures, strange noises, and close proximity to other people. These factors can be especially traumatic with autistic or phobic kids, or kids with behavioural issues. 

At Tooth Fairy & Co. , we have an amazing team that understand children of all ages and all phobias and know how to make the process less intimidating for kids, with our fairy forest and child friendly environment, complete with music and costumes.

Fissure Sealants

Food and bacteria can become stuck in the fissures (pits / groves) of your teeth, particularly in the back molars. Children’s molar teeth are very vulnerable to decay as the pits and fissures can be deep, making it more difficult to clean. Decay can then set in and if left untreated can lead to cavities. To prevent plaque and tartar build-up and decay developing, fissure sealants are often applied.


Applying fissure sealants is a pain-free procedure, as there are no drilling or invasive processes involved. It is a purely preventive measure and only takes approximately five minutes per tooth.


Fissure sealant is applied to fill the deep grooves and after only a few minutes sets hard, creating a protective barrier between the tooth enamel and plaque. The sealant material is tooth coloured, and also contains fluoride for added tooth protection.


The best time to apply fissure sealant is immediately following the emergence of your child’s first permanent molars, at around age 6. We then advise fissure sealant also be applied to the second permanent adult premolars when they come through, which usually occurs between the ages of 11-13.

Anxious Patients

It's perfectly normal for adults to suffer from anxiety about seeing the dentist as well. That's why we offer inhaled and oral sedation for patients with minor anxiety surrounding dental procedures they are about to undergo.

Inhaled sedation

Inhaled Sedation

Inhaled sedation, also known as laughing gas, provides a feeling of relaxation and happiness. This form of sedation is commonly used because it can be administered in doses depending on the patient and takes only minutes to take effect. Recovery is quick. Inhaled sedation is a great solution for patients who experience minor anxiety surrounding dental procedures.

Oral Sedation

You will need to be assessed for oral sedation prior to your dental treatment. Oral sedation is taken in pill form, and patients usually remain awake during the procedure, but will be drowsy.

Myofunctional Therapy

For people with minimal crowding issues, Clear Correct systems (like Invisalign) use clear retainers (aligners) that most people won't even notice you are wearing. They are comfortable and removable so you won't need to make drastic changes to diet or hygiene like you would with braces.
