Family Dental Care
Dr Berera believes it is important to teach children good habits from a young age. This is why it’s important to start bringing your children to the dentist regularly as soon as possible.
From proper tooth brushing techniques to preventive dental care or early orthodontics, we perform all children’s dentistry in a fun and safe environment.
Have you let your regular dental appointments lapse and lost your usual hygiene routine? Has your family failed to have their oral health looked after properly for some time? Do you have dental work that needs to be completed but you just never got around to it?
At our practice, we are not just cosmetic dentists. We provide comprehensive dental care for people of all ages. Dr Berera enjoys all aspects of general dentistry, especially looking after whole families. As a family-friendly local dentist and an active member of the Leichhardt community, Dr Berera strives to give you and your family the best dental experience each time you visit.
We offer all dental treatments at Dr Nidhi Berera including:
Why Is It Important To See The Dentist?
We recommend everyone see a dentist twice a year for regular preventive care visits. These appointments allow Dr. Berera to monitor your oral health and screen for any developing conditions that can compromise the health of your teeth.
The primary aim of routine dental exams is to help prevent problems that may occur later on. Your dentist can help detect areas that could possibly lead to severe complications in the future. For the most part, regular check-ups help maintain a healthy smile by maintaining your oral health.
A typical routine check-up appointment includes:
Clinical examination
Preventive teeth cleanings
Oral cancer screenings
Necessary dental X-rays.
By having your check-ups performed on a routine basis, you can prevent problems such as:
Gum disease
Untreated decay forming in teeth or under old dental work
Broken fillings
Cracks in teeth
Dr. Berera examines the health of each one of your teeth, as well as your other oral tissues, to ensure there are no existing or early forms of disease that can quickly progress into severe problems later on. Not only does this minimise your treatment needs, but it also helps reduce your investment in dental treatment, by cleaning your teeth and correcting problems when they are smaller while the treatments are less invasive.
How Often Should You Get A Dental Check-Up?
We recommend that all patients see a dentist at least twice a year for routine check-ups. This is the ideal frequency for removing tartar deposits from the teeth, conducting screenings, and intercepting any developing cavities since the last visit. If it’s been longer than 6 months since your last appointment, we invite you to visit our dental office so that Dr.Berera can help you once again gain control over your oral health.
Going back to the dentist for the first time can be a little unnerving. That’s why we strive to make our patients feel as comfortable as possible and listen to their individual needs throughout the entire visit. From working around your busy schedule to discussing treatment options with you, Dr.Berera is focused on individual, personalised care that exceeds your expectations.
