Dental Services We Offer on the Gold Coast
Choosing a dentist is about much more than cleaning your teeth twice a year. It is about knowing that everyone in the family can walk into the same clinic and receive gentle, expert care at every stage of life. At Bundall Dental and Implants, we have spent more than 25 years providing Gold Coast residents with exactly that level of confidence. Below is an overview of the dental services we offer, why each service matters, and how you can decide which option is right for you. 1. General and Preventive Dentistry Regular check-ups are the cornerstone of a healthy smile. During a standard visit we perform a comprehensive oral examination, professional scale and clean, and digital X-rays when required. These appointments allow us to detect early signs of tooth decay, gum disease, or oral cancer before they turn into bigger (and costlier) problems. Key services: Routine examinations and professional cleaning Fluoride treatments and fissure sealants for cavity prevention Digital radiographs and intra-oral photographs for precise diagnosis Custom mouthguards and night guards to protect teeth during sport or sleep Our article on understanding oral care explains how routine visits can save your teeth and why regular dental check-ups matter. 2. Children's Dentistry Healthy habits start young. The Australian Dental Association recommends a child's first dental visit by their first birthday. We create a fun, welcoming environment to help kids associate dental care with positive experiences rather than fear. Paediatric highlights: Gentle exams from first tooth through adolescence Age-appropriate brushing and flossing instruction Fissure sealants and topical fluoride for extra protection Early orthodontic assessments to spot alignment issues Management of common concerns such as teething pain or thumb-sucking If you are preparing for that inaugural visit, our guide on your child's first dental visit walks parents through every step. Learn more about building healthy habits in children and preventive dental care for kids. 3. Cosmetic Dentistry A confident smile can open doors both socially and professionally. Our cosmetic services focus on improving colour, shape, and alignment whilst safeguarding tooth structure. Common cosmetic options: Professional teeth whitening for brightening discolouration Dental bonding to repair small chips or minor gaps Porcelain veneers for comprehensive smile transformations Clear aligners for discreet straightening Tooth-coloured fillings that blend seamlessly with natural enamel Learn about addressing teeth discolouration and the difference between teeth whitening and scaling & polishing. 4. Restorative Dentistry When decay, injury, or wear compromises a tooth, timely restoration prevents further damage and restores full function. We provide: Composite and porcelain inlays/onlays for medium-sized cavities Full-coverage crowns to reinforce extensively weakened teeth Root canal therapy to save infected teeth Custom bridgework to replace one or several missing teeth Same-day CEREC options for select cases, reducing the number of visits Learn more about root canal procedures and essential guide to root canal treatment. 5. Dental Implants and Tooth Replacement Solutions Missing teeth affect speech, chewing efficiency, jawbone health, and self-esteem. Dental implants are a highly effective solution because they integrate with bone and function like natural roots. Whether you need a single implant, an implant-supported bridge, or a full-arch "All-on-X" restoration, we can tailor a solution. We also offer conventional full and partial dentures as well as implant-supported dentures when appropriate. For an in-depth comparison of your choices, see our post on the importance of replacing lost teeth. Learn about understanding dental implants in our comprehensive guide. 6. Emergency Dental Care Toothaches, broken teeth, and dental trauma rarely occur at convenient times. We reserve daily emergency slots so you can be assessed and treated quickly often on the same day. If you experience persistent pain, swelling, or a knocked-out tooth, phone us immediately. Rapid attention greatly improves outcomes. Tip: Our article why do my teeth hurt? explains the most common culprits behind dental pain and how to manage them whilst you organise an appointment. Learn about preventive dental care as your shield against emergencies. 7. Senior Dental Care Oral health challenges can intensify as we age: medications may cause dry mouth, manual dexterity can wane, and bone density changes make tooth loss more likely. Bundall Dental provides: Regular screenings for gum disease and oral cancer Treatment plans for managing xerostomia (dry mouth) Implant-retained overdentures to improve denture stability Tips for easier at-home care, including specially designed brushes Find additional advice in our guide to dental care for seniors. 8. Periodontal (Gum) Therapy Healthy gums are the foundation of every treatment we provide. We perform thorough periodontal charting and offer deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) or laser therapy if needed. Treating gum disease early not only saves teeth but also supports systemic health, with growing evidence linking periodontal inflammation to heart disease and diabetes. Explore the mouth-body connection in why gum health is essential and oral health for overall health. 9. Technology and Patient Comfort We invest in proven modern technology to make your visit faster, safer and more comfortable. The clinic is wheelchair-accessible and designed with family-friendly amenities. Calming music, ceiling-mounted TVs, and noise-reducing handpieces help nervous patients relax. Where appropriate, we can provide oral conscious sedation after a thorough medical assessment. Learn about overcoming dental anxiety. 10. Personalised Treatment Planning Every mouth is unique, so cookie-cutter dentistry does not cut it. We combine your oral health goals, X-ray findings, and medical history to create a roadmap that prioritises both immediate needs and long-term stability. Transparent cost estimates and phased scheduling help patients make informed decisions. Our experienced team provide tailored care with over 25 years of expertise serving the Gold Coast community.

Teeth Cleaning Gold Coast: How Often and Costs
Keeping your smile healthy is about much more than brushing twice a day. Professional teeth cleaning removes the stubborn calculus and biofilm that home care simply cannot reach, protecting your gums, freshening your breath and helping your teeth stay brighter for longer. Yet one question Gold Coast residents ask our team at Bundall Dental every week is: "How often do I really need a clean, and what will it cost me?" Below you will find evidence-based guidance on recommended cleaning intervals, a transparent look at typical fees on the Coast and practical tips to make every appointment great value. Why Regular Teeth Cleaning Matters Left undisturbed, plaque mineralises into calculus (tartar) within about 48 hours. Calculus is rough and porous, making it the perfect hiding place for pathogenic bacteria that cause: Gingivitis and, eventually, periodontal disease Tooth decay, particularly around the gumline and under fillings Persistent bad breath Staining from coffee, tea, red wine and tobacco The Australian Dental Association (ADA) notes that periodontal disease is still the leading cause of tooth loss in adults. A professional scale and clean is the single most effective way to prevent gum disease, because it physically disrupts biofilm below the gumline where toothbrush bristles cannot reach. How Often Should You Book a Clean? Twice yearly cleans have become a rule of thumb, and for many healthy adults, that is spot on. However, modern preventive dentistry personalises recall intervals according to individual risk. The ADA's Oral Health Tracker and most private health funds now back this risk-based model. Risk Category Typical Indicators Recommended Clean Interval Low Non-smoker, stable gums, no history of decay, excellent home care Every 6–12 months Moderate One or two small fillings in the past three years, mild gingivitis, orthodontic appliances or pregnancy Every 4–6 months High Smoking, diabetes, active periodontal disease, numerous crowns or implants, reduced manual dexterity Every 3–4 months Key takeaway: Ask your dentist or hygienist where you sit on the spectrum and book accordingly. Skipping recommended appointments can let early gum inflammation spiral into bone loss, turning a simple clean into more complex periodontal therapy. What Happens During a Professional Scale and Clean? Comprehensive oral examination (and medical history update) Removal of calculus using ultrasonic and hand instruments Stain removal with air-polishing or prophy paste Fluoride varnish to strengthen enamel Personalised instruction on brushing, flossing and interdental aids Bite-wing X-rays when due (usually every two years) Most appointments take 30 - 45 minutes. If significant gum pocketing is detected, your clinician may recommend quadrant-based deep cleaning over two visits, sometimes with local anaesthetic. Teeth Cleaning Costs on the Gold Coast in 2025 Prices vary slightly between suburbs, but, factors that influence the final fee Amount of calculus and stain (heavier buildup takes longer) Whether you see a dentist or an oral health therapist Deep cleaning or periodontal charting if gum pockets exceed 4 mm Need for diagnostic X-rays Use of sedation for anxious patients Your private health insurance rebate and annual limits Important: Always confirm details with your insurer, as yearly limits, waiting periods, and policy levels vary. Coverage depends on your specific policy and annual benefit limits. Bundall Dental's Approach to Affordable Preventive Care Bundall Dental & Implants is an independently owned practice, not a corporate chain. That means we can keep our fee schedule competitive whilst allowing extra time for personalised care. Key benefits our patients mention include: Transparent quotes before any treatment Reduced-gap scale and cleans for eligible members of major funds (call to confirm coverage) Wheelchair-accessible Because fees sometimes change with supplier costs, the most accurate way to know your out-of-pocket expense is to request an on-the-spot itemised quote. Contact us or use our online booking portal to secure your spot. Stretching Your Dental Dollar: Five Smart Strategies 1. Schedule your next clean before leaving the surgeryPlanning avoids missing the optimal window and keeps small issues small. 2. Track your extras limitIf your rollover date is 31 December, a June and a November clean will generally be covered within your annual limits. 3. Upgrade brushing toolsAn oscillating-rotating electric toothbrush can significantly reduce plaque compared with a manual brush. Learn more about dental health habits that actually work. 4. Replace floss with interdental brushesIf you have larger gaps or fixed retainers, interdental brushes may be more effective. Better daily plaque removal means less chair time. 5. Quit smokingAside from the systemic benefits, research shows former smokers respond to scale and clean treatments far better than current smokers. Read about the hidden dangers of smoking on oral health and lifestyle choices that are dangerous for dental health. Ready to Book a Teeth Cleaning on the Gold Coast?

Dental Health Habits That Actually Work
Sticking to a dental routine should be simple: brush, floss and see your dentist. Yet an ocean of social media trends and well-meaning advice can make it hard to know which habits genuinely protect your smile and which are marketing hype. Below, our Bundall Dental team breaks down the daily dental health habits that actually work backed by solid science and the Australian Dental Association (ADA). Commit to these fundamentals, and you will lower your risk of decay, gum disease and costly treatment down the track. 1. Brush Twice a Day, But Technique Matters More Than Timing A 2024 ADA position statement confirms that brushing twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste significantly reduces cavities. The why is straightforward: fluoride remineralises weakened enamel, while the mechanical action sweeps away plaque before it hardens into calculus. Key technique points: Use a soft-bristled manual or electric brush Place bristles at a 45° angle to the gumline and make gentle circular motions scrubbing side-to-side erodes enamel Cover every surface: outer, inner and chewing areas, plus the tongue for fresher breath Brush for a full two minutes (most electric brushes have a built-in timer) Upgrade tip: Replace your brush head every three months or earlier if bristles splay. 2. Clean Between Teeth Daily More than one-third of a tooth's surface hides between neighbouring teeth, where decay and gum disease thrive first. Floss or an interdental brush once a day to dislodge biofilm your toothbrush cannot reach. Not sure which tool is right? Read our guide on floss picks versus traditional floss. Wider gaps, orthodontic wires or bridges often benefit from interdental brushes; tight contacts may require traditional floss. If bleeding occurs for the first week, stick with it bleeding usually signals inflamed gums that will improve as plaque is removed. Persistent bleeding warrants a professional check-up. Learn more about why interdental cleaning protects your overall wellbeing in our guide Why Gum Health is Essential for Your Overall Health. 3. Eat (and Drink) for Strong Teeth Diet is the silent architect of oral health. Sugary snacks fuel acid-producing bacteria, while acidic sports drinks and sparkling water can erode enamel even when sugar-free. Research shows that sugar-sweetened beverages significantly increase caries risk, whilst calcium-rich foods buffer acids and rebuild enamel crystals. Smart dietary habits: Choose whole foods that require chewing apples, carrots and nuts stimulate saliva, the mouth's natural cleanser Pair acidic items (citrus, tomatoes, vinaigrettes) with dairy or rinse with water to neutralise pH Limit grazing; teeth need roughly two hours between meals to recover Sip tap water. Queensland's supply is fluoridated, adding a micro-dose of cavity protection For a deeper dive, read The Impact of Diet on Dental Health: Comprehensive Insights for a Healthy Smile. 4. Stay Hydrated: Saliva Is Your Superpower Dry mouth (xerostomia) multiplies cavity risk, causes bad breath and makes swallowing tough. Common triggers include certain medications, mouth breathing and dehydration. Aim for 6 8 glasses of water a day and breathe through your nose when at rest. Sugar-free chewing gum containing xylitol can further boost saliva flow and disrupt harmful bacteria. 5. See Your Dentist Twice a Year (or as Recommended) A professional clean removes hardened calculus you cannot budge at home and allows early detection of decay, gum disease and oral cancer. Our Bundall Dental clinicians use digital X-rays and intra-oral cameras to spot problems before they hurt and cost less to fix. Learn what happens during a preventive visit in Understanding Oral Care: How Regular Check-ups Can Save Your Teeth and discover why you need regular dental check-ups. 6. Ditch Tobacco and Moderate Alcohol Smoking significantly increases your risk of severe gum disease and dental implant failure. Alcohol complicates matters by drying the mouth and, in excess, heightening oral cancer risk. Quitting is challenging, but support programmes and nicotine-replacement therapies raise long-term success rates. Explore specific oral risks in The Hidden Dangers of Smoking on Oral Health and learn about lifestyle choices that are dangerous for dental health. 7. Protect Your Teeth From Trauma and Grinding Custom sports mouthguard: Dental injuries frequently occur during sport. A dentist-made mouthguard fits better than a pharmacy kit, so athletes actually wear it. Night guard for bruxism: Many adults grind or clench in their sleep, leading to cracks and sensitivity. A fitted acrylic splint cushions teeth and relaxes jaw muscles. Learn more about grinding and bruxism: causes, symptoms, and treatments. 8. Align Oral Health With Overall Health Conditions like poorly controlled diabetes can accelerate periodontal disease, whilst untreated gum inflammation can worsen blood-sugar control. Share your full medical history and medications with your dentist so care is truly holistic. Explore the connection in Oral Health and Overall Health. Habits That Don't Work (and One That's Overhyped) Charcoal toothpaste: No scientific evidence shows activated charcoal whitens teeth long term; its abrasiveness can scratch enamel. Oil pulling as a replacement for brushing: Swishing coconut oil may slightly reduce bacteria but cannot dislodge plaque biofilm. Use it only as an adjunct, never a substitute. Whitening strips every week: Excessive peroxide use dehydrates enamel and irritates gums. Follow product limits or opt for dentist-supervised whitening. Building a Personal Routine That Sticks Anchor habits: Brush whilst listening to the same two-minute playlist each morning Reminders: Set calendar alerts for six-monthly check ups our reception team can pre-book your next visit before you leave Family modelling: Kids emulate parents; brush together after dinner.

Book your appointment today at Bundall Dental and discover personalised dental health strategies that actually work. FAQs How long after brushing should I wait before eating breakfast?Wait at least 30 minutes, especially if you consumed acidic drinks like orange juice first. Brushing immediately on softened enamel can cause erosion. For more guidance, read our article on dental care routines. Is a water flosser as good as string floss?Water flossers reduce bleeding and plaque but may miss tight contacts. Most dentists recommend using them in addition to traditional floss or interdental brushes, not in place of them. They're particularly useful for patients with bridges or implants. Are sugar-free soft drinks safe for teeth?Whilst they remove sugar, many contain phosphoric or citric acid. Frequent sipping can still erode enamel consume in moderation and rinse with water. Learn more about diet's impact on dental health and tooth discolouration causes. How often should children see a dentist on the Gold Coast?Every six months from the eruption of the first tooth or by their first birthday, unless your dentist advises otherwise. Read our comprehensive guides on children's dental health and first dental visits for more information. What's the best way to prevent teeth grinding at night?A custom-fitted night guard (occlusal splint) is the most effective solution. It cushions teeth, prevents wear, and relaxes jaw muscles. Bundall Dental creates custom guards tailored to your bite. Learn about bruxism causes and treatments in our detailed guide.
