Services
Dental Implants
Dental implants at Diamond Dental Care offer a permanent solution for missing teeth, combining titanium posts with custom crowns for natural aesthetics and function. Our process includes bone assessment, implant placement, and restoration, supported by advanced imaging technology. Patients benefit from improved chewing ability, facial structure preservation, and long-term durability, with options for sleep dentistry to ensure comfort during procedures.
Orthodontics
We provide comprehensive orthodontic solutions, including traditional metal braces, ceramic braces, and Invisalign aligners, tailored to correct misaligned teeth and bites. Early assessments from age 5 ensure optimal jaw development, while digital scans and X-rays enable precise treatment planning. Our team addresses both aesthetic and functional concerns, such as headaches caused by poor bite alignment, with flexible financing options available for long-term care.
General Dentistry
Our general dentistry services encompass fillings, extractions, and restorative treatments using modern white fillings and sedation options for anxious patients. We prioritise preventive care through regular check-ups, cleanings, and fluoride treatments to maintain oral health. Advanced tools like ceiling-mounted TVs and noise-cancelling headphones create a relaxed environment, ensuring patients of all ages feel comfortable during visits.
Children's Dentistry
Specialising in child-friendly dental care, we create positive early experiences with gentle cleanings, exams, and education on oral hygiene. Our team addresses common concerns like cavities and orthodontic screenings, offering fluoride treatments and tooth-coloured fillings. We cater to children with special needs, providing a welcoming atmosphere and emergency care, while parents benefit from transparent cost discussions and insurance claims via HiCAPS.
Preventive Care
Preventive dentistry at Diamond Dental Care focuses on early detection and maintenance to avoid costly treatments. Services include bi-annual cleanings, plaque removal, and dietary advice, supported by digital X-rays and Airflow hygiene techniques. We educate patients on home care routines and offer fluoride applications to strengthen enamel, ensuring long-term dental health for families across the Sunshine Coast.
