Important COVID-19 UpdateMore Info

Dear Valued Aardent Dental Centre Patient, It seems that all we hear and talk about these days is COVID-19(Coronavirus). Nevertheless, we want to reassure you that we are taking extra measures in addition to our usual stringent hygiene practices. The health of our patients, staff and anyone who enters the building is of paramount importance to us. We are taking a multitude of precautions as recommended by the appropriate health authorities (and some of our own). These include,

  • Spacing of waiting room chairs by a minimum of 1.5meters.
  • Removal of magazines, newspapers and children’s toys from the waiting room.
  • Offering patients to wait in their cars if they prefer.
  • Insisting that all people who enter the building use hand sanitiser (provided).
  • Asking all people to practice high levels of cough/sneezing hygiene.
  • Requesting that anyone with a temperature/flu like symptoms contact us and postpone their dental appointment.
  • Regularly sanitising building surfaces like doorknobs etc.
  • Requiring patients for some procedures to rinse with 1% hydrogen peroxide solution (known to kill coronavirus in the mouth).
  • Availability of non-contact body temperature devices for patient screening if the situation escalates.

Please rest assured that we are open for business and able to continue our excellent level of treatment for you.

As you will be aware the situation is ever changing as will be our response. We will endeavour to keep you informed along the way.

Kindest regards,

Richard Williams

Did you know that most dental problems can be avoided? The key is a balanced diet, good oral hygiene practices and routine preventative care, like scheduling a checkup and clean at our family practice every six months.

 

Dentistry Tailored for You

During your recall visits, we adjust your services to fit your specific oral health needs. Whether you’re experiencing slight gingivitis or have a family history of gum disease, we cater each screening and educational resource to fit your situation.

Diagnostic Digital X-rays

We can take individual x-rays inside your mouth or a larger x-ray from outside called an Orthopantomograph or OPG. Both of these use digital technology which means they are quick and most importantly have very small radiation doses.

Why Routine Checkups Are Important

If you’ve never had dental problems or it’s been a long time since you last visited a dentist, you may be wondering whether or not it’s beneficial to take time out of your day to schedule a checkup and clean.
Because most dental problems are better to treat early on, these routine appointments provide us with an opportunity to diagnose issues when they are still small. Doing so keeps treatment costs lower; waiting to address problems only leads to more invasive and expensive therapies in the future.

Dental problems like gum disease or tooth decay do not heal themselves. Waiting until you’re in pain or the symptoms get worse can drastically compound the problem.
Our mission is to show patients how to intercept common dental diseases and reverse them or treat them earlier, making care less invasive (and more affordable)!

Earlier Diagnosis, Better Care

We encourage you and your family to schedule a routine check and clean every six months so that we can screen for signs of tooth decay in its earliest stages. In many cases, we can give you resources to lower your cavity risk.
