How Long Do They Last?
Fissure sealants can last for many years, but we can renew them if they begin to look chipped or worn. They are a great way to protect these tooth surfaces and we suggest applying them soon after the adult teeth erupt as they can only be used on teeth that do not have any fillings.
Treating Tongue Tie
Sometimes the lingual frenulum will stretch or loosen over time, but otherwise we can carry out a quick procedure to free the frenulum using our dental laser. The frenulum contains few nerve endings or blood vessels so any discomfort will be minimal and we take great care to ensure our young patients are comfortable and relaxed during dental appointments.
If your kids are aged 2-17 years, they could be eligible to receive $1,026 of free dentistry under the Child Dental Benefits Schedule (CDBS). At Lakeside Dental Spa Hervey Bay, we bulk bill for CDBS, so there is no gap for you to pay.
For appointments, please call us on (07) 4191 4787. Our practice is located at 180 Main St, Kawungan QLD 4655.
