Using modern equipment and a gentle approach, we aim to make each visit to our Melbourne dental clinic both effective and comfortable.
Affordable Dental Care for Families
Preventative and general dental care is essential to keeping your smile healthy and avoiding more complex treatments later on. At Hume Dental Group, we offer family-focused general dentistry designed to support patients of all ages. We recommend check-ups every six months, including comprehensive exams and professional teeth cleaning to help maintain optimal oral health.
We also welcome children, helping them build healthy habits from an early age through fun, educational dental visits. Our services are competitively priced, and we strive to make top-quality care affordable for every household.
In addition to general care, we offer a range of services such as cosmetic dentistry, emergency dental care, and orthodontic options—including clear aligners and invisible braces.
What Is General Dentistry?
General dentistry focuses on the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of everyday dental issues. It includes essential services such as cleanings, fillings, extractions, and treatment for gum disease. Unlike restorative procedures that address more severe problems, general dentistry aims to maintain oral health and catch issues early—before they develop into something more serious.
Why Regular Dental Check-Ups Matter
Routine dental visits play a vital role in keeping your teeth and gums healthy. During these appointments, our team can detect and address concerns that may not yet be causing symptoms. Early detection often leads to simpler, less expensive treatments. Regular cleans also remove plaque buildup, reduce the risk of cavities and gum disease, and give you the opportunity to learn better oral hygiene practices.
Our General Dentistry Services at Hume Dental Group
Wisdom Tooth Removal
If your wisdom teeth are causing pain, overcrowding, or decay, we offer safe removal options with various sedation methods to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure and recovery.
Root Canal Treatment
To save a severely infected tooth, our dentists may recommend root canal therapy. This involves removing the infected pulp, sealing the root, and restoring the tooth’s function.
Tooth-Coloured Fillings
We offer composite resin fillings that blend with your natural teeth. These white fillings are durable, biocompatible, and aesthetically pleasing—an ideal alternative to metal.
Gum Treatments
From gum contouring to grafting, our gum procedures are designed to treat periodontal issues and improve both gum health and appearance. Laser options are available for minimal discomfort.
Dental Hygiene & Cleaning
Our oral hygiene team provides thorough plaque removal and tailored oral care advice to prevent decay and gum disease. Regular hygiene appointments help you maintain a bright, healthy smile.
Tooth Extractions
When a tooth can’t be saved, we ensure a stress-free extraction process with expert care and aftercare guidance.
Dental Implants & Oral Surgery
We offer implant surgery for patients needing permanent solutions for missing teeth. Implants restore both appearance and functionality while supporting jaw health.
Sleep Apnoea Devices
We provide custom-fitted dental appliances that reduce snoring and help manage sleep apnoea for more restful sleep.
Preventative Sealants, Scaling & Root Planing
Sealants protect back teeth from cavities, while deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) treats gum infections by removing tartar beneath the gumline.
Discreet Orthodontics
Straighten your teeth with confidence using clear aligners and invisible braces. These modern orthodontic options are ideal for teens and adults seeking subtle smile correction.
