Booking now enquire usAn appointment with a general dentist at CLDC will help you improve the health of your teeth and gums. Our team will guide you through proper brushing and flossing habits so you can maintain your healthy teeth at home.
A dental bridge is used to replace one or two missing teeth. Two crowns are attached to teeth adjacent to the gap. An attached crown replaces your missing tooth, bridging the gap. Bridges are fixed permanently into the teeth and are not removable.
Learn MoreProper oral hygiene is vital in maintaining the long term health of your teeth and gums. Correct brushing and flossing habits will prevent many problems from occurring. At CLDC, we will examine your teeth, gum and jaw health to determine how to maximise your overall dental health.
Learn MoreRestorative dentistry is used to repair damage or decay to teeth and includes fillings, Inlays, and crowns.
Learn MoreThe materials used for fillings need to have specific characteristics and must be durable enough to withstand the force of chewing. At CLDC, we prefer to use composite resin. This filling material will result in a tooth coloured filling that blends in with the rest of your teeth.
Learn MoreInlays are fillings used to repair moderately damaged back teeth. They need to be extremely strong and are often made of porcelain, ceramic or composite material. Specialist cement is also used to increase the strength of the bond between your tooth and the inlay.
Learn MoreCrowns restore the functionality of damaged or weakened teeth. Like a cap, a crown is placed over a damaged tooth to enclose the damaged area and reinforce the underlying structure. They are used in situations with extensive damage that cannot be repaired through fillings.
Learn MoreCosmetic dentistry improves the overall appearance of your smile without compromising on the structure and health of your teeth. At CLDC, we are industry leaders in cosmetic and aesthetic dentistry and have many years of experience working with our patients to give them their dream smiles.
Our porcelain veneers are thin pieces of custom created ceramic porcelain that we bond over the top of your existing teeth. Veneers can be used to change your tooth’s shape, colour and size and are often used to correct discoloured, damaged, misshapen or gapped teeth.
Learn MoreTooth bonding are shaped by hand onto the teeth by our expert dentists to suit each patient’s smile and surrounding facial features. They are bonded onto the teeth and are a more affordable alternative to porcelain veneers.
Learn MoreCLDC was the first dental practice in Australia to introduce Glamsmile veneer technology to our patients. Glamsmile is a fast, painless, and affordable porcelain veneer system that can help with discoloured or worn teeth.
Learn MoreTeeth can become discoloured from age, diet, illnesses, or poor oral hygiene. To combat this, CLDC offers a range of teeth whitening services, including Natural Plus Teeth Whitening, LaserBrite Teeth Whitening, Non-Vital Internal Bleaching (for dead nerves), and At-Home Professional Whitening Kits.
Learn MoreA dental implant is used to replace missing teeth. The implant is surgically inserted into the jawbone, and a crown placed on top to fill the space left by the missing teeth. Dental implants can be used to replace a single tooth or a complete set of teeth.
Learn MorePermadent Platinum is a fixed whole arch replacement that uses a durable zirconia bridge with 6 to 8 standard dental implants. We believe that this is the best whole-arch replacement system at CLDC since it utilises less invasive surgical techniques.
Learn MorePermadent 3 Hour is a removable whole arch replacement that attaches to a minimum of 5 dental implants. This process uses the latest computer technology and less invasive surgical techniques and only takes a few hours to complete.
Learn MoreThe All On 4 dental implant system is used as a permanent whole arch replacement. The treatment consists of only 4 dental implants to restore the functionality and strength of your teeth. It is a popular choice around Australia and will last you for years to come.
Learn MoreIf you have existing dentures, they may be suited for an implant denture conversion. This will adapt your dentures to a dental implant system so that they can be fixed more securely in your mouth while still being removable for easy cleaning and maintenance.
Learn MoreA smile makeover at CLDC will involve one or more dental treatments that combine to create a beautiful new smile. Our dental practice emphasises combing dental health with a stunning smile and will personalise a smile makeover process for each smile.
Learn MoreMuscle relaxing injections are used to relieve TMJ symptoms caused by excessive grinding or clenching of the jaw. Injections will relax the jaw and reduce the pressure exerted on your jaw, helping soothe symptoms such as headaches, facial pains, or tooth wear.
Learn MoreYour smile goes beyond just your teeth. Creating a harmonious look with your face’s surrounding tissues and structures goes a long way towards creating a balanced and beautiful smile.
Learn MoreUsing a combination of dermal fillers and anti-wrinkle injections, the 8 Point Facelift is a non-surgical facelift that can have drastic results, restoring volume and rejuvenating the face. Compared to a traditional facelift, it is much less invasive, requires no downtime, and is a fraction of the cost.
Learn MoreAnti-wrinkle injectables use a pharmaceutical-grade exotoxin to relax targeted muscles. This will help to smooth out wrinkles in the face and is also used in TMJ therapy to relax the over-active TMJ muscle.
Dermal fillers are used to add volume in various areas around the face. Typical applications include using fillers to add volume to uneven lips or filling in darkened spaces between teeth or dental implants.
Some dental services require the expertise of highly skilled and trained specialists. At CLDC, we have a roster of available specialists, including endodontists, orthodontists, periodontists and oral surgeons, for all your specialist dentistry requirements.
If you have wisdom teeth that need to be removed, our talented oral surgeon will ensure your surgery is performed with maximum safety and comfort. All our surgeries are performed under hospital-grade infection control and sterilisation conditions.
Learn MoreIn-chair surgery is an affordable option for complex treatments. CLDC’s oral surgeons are skilled in performing various surgeries, including teeth extraction, bone grafting surgery, dental implant placement, and gum surgery.
Learn MoreMicro dentistry is a minimally invasive form of dentistry whose philosophy centres around the prevention and early detection of tooth decay. Our micro dentistry tools include microscopes, lasers, and detection dyes for the most optimal viewing of your teeth’s condition.
Learn MoreSome patients tend to get more anxious or fearful at the dentist due to past trauma or negative connotation associated with the dentist. To help combat this and ensure a comfortable environment for all our patients, CLDC offers sleep dentistry and sedation.
Learn MoreA natural alternative to dental sedation, hypnosis is helpful in fears and anxieties at the dentist. Using relaxation and subconscious suggestion, anxious patients can be calmed down and relaxed during their visit with us.
