What can my family see a dentist for?
A family dentist provides preventive and restorative care for patients at different stages of life. Visits may include an examination, advice on brushing and flossing, cleaning where appropriate, and assessment of concerns such as toothache, sensitivity, damaged teeth or changes to the gums. The right care depends on your oral health and priorities, which we assess in person.
Dr Chalita le Roux, BChD cum laude from the University of Pretoria in 2020 and a member of SAAAD, provides personalised care from consultation through treatment. She explains findings and discusses suitable options with you. For children, adults and older patients, the visit is shaped around the individual rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
What happens at a first dental appointment?
Your first visit starts with a conversation about your dental concerns, health history and goals. The dentist examines your teeth and gums and may recommend imaging or digital scanning if it is relevant to your assessment. You can ask questions as the findings are explained, and we assess treatment decisions in person rather than relying on a description alone.
If treatment is needed, the dentist discusses the available options, their benefits and limitations, possible risks, aftercare and expected follow-up. You can take time to consider the information before deciding how to proceed. If you have pain or a broken tooth, mention this when booking so the practice can understand your concern and advise on an appointment.
Can a crown or veneer be completed in one visit?
CEREC CAD/CAM technology and digital scanning allow many suitable crowns and veneers to be designed and made during a single visit. A digital scan records the shape of your teeth, and the system is used to plan and produce the restoration. For patients travelling from Discovery, this may mean less time away from work or family and fewer trips to the practice.
A same-day restoration is not suitable for every tooth or every clinical situation. The dentist needs to examine the tooth, consider your bite and oral health, and decide whether this approach is appropriate. We assess this in person and explain the process, possible risks and aftercare before treatment begins.
What affects the cost of dental treatment?
Dental costs depend on the treatment needed, the materials used, any laboratory work, the number of teeth involved and the complexity of your case. For crowns and veneers, the choice of material and the work required to plan and make each restoration can affect the overall cost. How long a restoration may last also depends on factors such as oral health, bite and care after treatment.
As a relative guide, simpler care may fall into a $ tier, more involved treatment into a $$ tier, and complex restorative work into a $$$ tier. These tiers are not prices or a substitute for an assessment. An exact, personalised estimate is given after the consultation, in writing, before any treatment starts.
