Delivering A Range Of Services

At Dentist on Tweed, we offer a range of general services for our patients in Tweed Heads and Southport. These services include the following:


White fillings: Unlike traditional silver fillings, white fillings are near impossible to detect. They provide the same functionality and durability as silver fillings but allow you to smile and laugh without worrying about them showing.


Inlays and onlays: Also known as fillings, inlays and onlays are an alternative to a dental crown, requiring 2 visits to perform. Unlike normal fillings, inlays and onlays are made in a dental laboratory before being bonded to your teeth. Our dentists will take the time to discuss all your options.


Periodontal disease management: Periodontitis is an advanced form of untreated gingivitis. If left untreated, it can cause damage to your teeth, gums and bone structure, which can eventually lead to teeth falling out or requiring extraction.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is general dentistry?

    General dentistry involves the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of a wide range of dental conditions that affect your oral health. It includes routine dental check-ups, cleanings, fillings, root canals and more. A general dentist is your primary dental care provider who helps maintain the overall health of your teeth and gums.

  • How often should I visit the dentist for a check-up?

    It is generally recommended to visit the dentist every six months for a routine check-up and cleaning. Regular visits help prevent dental issues, such as cavities and gum disease, and allow the dentist to monitor your oral health, addressing any problems early.

  • What do I do if I have badly bitten my lip or tongue?

    If your lip or tongue is bleeding, apply direct pressure with a clean piece of cloth or gauze. Swelling can be reduced with a cold compression. For severe cuts, call your dentist or doctor immediately.

  • Should I go to the dentist if I have a toothache?

    An ongoing toothache is a definite sign that you should make an appointment with your dentist. Until you can see your dentist, we recommend rinsing your mouth out with water and flossing to help remove debris, which may reduce pain. If you have any swelling, apply a cold compression to your cheek. 


    You may use painkillers, although avoid aspirin as they are known to prevent blood from clotting.

  • Is there a way I can stop my braces or retainer from being uncomfortable?

    We find if you place a tiny bit of cotton ball or little piece of wax over the end of the wire, it will stop it from being irritating or uncomfortable.


    If the wire has pierced your cheek, please call your dentist immediately. Do not attempt to remove the wire yourself as it may cause you more harm.

  • Can a tooth that has been knocked out be put back in?

    It can! You have about 30 minutes to call our emergency dental service to rescue the tooth. Until you arrive, gently clean the tooth with water only and place it back into the socket the right way up. If the tooth cannot be replanted, place the tooth in a container of milk or water. Alternatively, you can place the tooth inside your cheek until you reach your dental office.

  • What do I do if I have broken or chipped a tooth?

    Make a dental appointment straight away. In the meantime, clean the chipped tooth segment with water, milk or your own saliva. To help reduce swelling and minimise pain, apply a cold compression to the area.

  • What do I do if I have badly bitten my lip or tongue?

    If your lip or tongue is bleeding, apply direct pressure with a clean piece of cloth or gauze. Swelling can be reduced with a cold compression. For severe cuts, call your dentist or doctor immediately.
