Dentistry you can’t wait to tell your friends about.
Patient Anxiety
If you feel any form of anxiety related to visiting a dentist, you should know that you are not alone. Our gentle, experienced dentists will provide pain-free dentistry with understanding and empathy. We utilise a variety of tried and tested methods in administering to patient anxiety.

COVID-19
If you have travelled overseas or think you may have been a close contact of a confirmed case of coronavirus, special restrictions apply to you. you must isolate yourself, which means you stay at home and do not attend public places, including work, school, childcare or university. For the latest advice on who needs to isolate, go to www.health.gov.au.
While coronavirus is of concern, it is important to remember that most people displaying symptoms such as fever, cough, sore throat or tiredness are likely suffering with a cold or other respiratory illness-not coronaviruses.

Root Canals
Save the day with a root canal treatment. This refers to the precise removal of an infected tooth nerve to reclaim a troubled tooth. Root canal symptoms include severe toothache, swollen gums and sensitivity to hot/cold food and drinks. Presenting with any or all of these, we will give you a complete oral assessment (this may include x-rays) in order to determine if a root canal is suitable for your situation.
There is no real substitute better than your own tooth. So even if there’s an existing infection or bad damage, our approach at Camp Hill Dental is to step in as your professional root canal dentist. We try to avoid the need for extraction (tooth removal) in every case that we possibly can. If a tooth is too severely damaged to repair, we may have to recommend tooth extraction and replacement. We urge you to keep on top of your check ups and/or make an appointment to see us as soon as possible to reduce the likelihood of this occurring (and the infection spreading to surrounding teeth).
Wisdom Teeth
Quite often the jaws are not large enough to allow wisdom teeth to erupt or take up their correct position. Wisdom teeth are often painful as they are trying to erupt through the gum. The bacteria and food becomes trapped and it particularly hurts when the top tooth smashes onto the lower inflamed gum. Generally these teeth need to be removed as they can cause decay in the next tooth, are painful and are never going to erupt properly.
Jaw Pain
Jaw pain can have you feeling anything from a dull ache to a stabbing sensation – and just about everything in between! Jaw joint pain and tooth pain in your jaw may be related to several conditions. Often enough, it originates from excessive teeth grinding or clenching during sleep. Cracked teeth can lead to tooth abscesses. In this and all else, Camp Hill Dental identifies and treats the problem at its source. We should be able to restore your smile – sometimes education and a night splint are all that is required.
Sports Dentistry
Sports and physical activity are a part of a healthy lifestyle, but accidents do happen. With dental injuries presenting a real risk to those who play contact sports and/or are intensively active at any age, we recognise the need for specialist solutions. At Camp Hill Dental, we are experienced in Sports Dentistry and offer practical measures that are designed to help make life easier for active families.
