A healthy diet is a balanced diet that includes the major food groups such as fruits, vegetables, grains, meat and beans, and milk in the right servings. A healthy balanced diet is not just essential for overall growth and development of a child but also required for teeth and gums to develop properly.
Frequent intake of a diet high in sugar puts a person at extra risk of tooth decay. Sugar can be found in soda, juices and many foods especially the processed foods. It can also be found in milk. We have to look beyond the sugar and candy dish when checking for sugar. This does not mean that we have to give up all foods with sugar; the key is to select and serve wisely. Foods that are sweet and sticky have more potential to cause cavities. Sugary foods are safer for teeth when eaten with a meal than as a snack. You can ask your paediatric dentist to help assess your child’s diet.

Yes. Please call answering service operator on 6533 0088 and ask for one of the "on-call" dentists from TP Dental Surgeons. Our dentist will get back to you as soon as possible and if necessary, arrange to see you immediately at our practice.
Except for emergency problems requiring immediate treatment, patients are seen by appointment. If you are unable to come at the appointed time, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can rearrange the appointment.
Some people are very frightened of dental treatment. For these patients, we will use relative analgesia (laughing gas) to relieve their anxiety. Ask any of our staff about this and they will gladly explain it to you.
Yes. We have all the specialists in all dental specialties in our clinic.
Our dentists and staff will gladly explain our costs to you before the commencement of any treatment.
You can pay by cash, cheque, NETS or credit card (Visa, MasterCard, American Express or Diners). Normally, payments are expected at each visit. However, for extensive work, you will be required to pay a deposit on your first visit and to settle the balance when the work is completed. Advance payment is also accepted.
Many of our patients have insurance to help pay towards the cost of their dentistry and our fees are the same, regardless of whether a patient has insurance or not. However, it is our policy that patients are responsible for ensuring that their bills are paid in full. Therefore you will need to make your own financial arrangements before receiving treatment and will need to ensure that the bill is settled in full at the end of your treatment. Should there be a dispute between you and your insurance company, it must be handled directly you and them. However, we will gladly provide any relevant information to help settle the matter.
