What to Expect at
Port Smiles Dental
Port Smiles wants to create the most comfortable environment possible for our patients. Make yourself at home in our lounge while you wait. One of our dentists
will sit down with you to discuss any concerns or questions you have prior to beginning any treatment. We will take a detailed patient history so we can do our jobs correctly and conduct a thorough examination of your mouth to pinpoint any issues or areas of concern.
What happens next?
Following your examination, our team
will present a personalised analysis, including any recommended treatments to you. We will then fully explain these treatments to you, including the costs and any risks involved. We will answer any questions you may have so that you can make the most informed decision. We can also discuss any concerns you have about cost. Call us to get started.
For Nervous Patients
At Port Smiles, we understand that a trip to the dentist can be severely distressing for some, preventing treatment of dental problems. Our dentists are extremely gentle and skilled in all aspects of pain-free dentistry.
We understand that pain can occur at any time. This is why we have dedicated Emergency times every day and are open all day Saturday.
For the extremely anxious patients, our team offer IV (Intravenous) sedation, which avoids hospital visits and is part claimable through Medicare. It can be done for any long procedure and we make sure it’s 100% pain-free. You won’t remember a thing! Our first consultation allows us to take non-invasive, digital records to provide a personalised treatment plan which can be complete in the one scheduled sedation appointment.
Ask our friendly team about how we can make your experience pain-free and if IV sedation or any other sedation is the right choice for you.
