It may not be as glamorous as having your teeth whitened or having veneers fitted but having regular check-ups provides the solid backbone required for any future cosmetic work. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-embev\" class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1atvN _2QAo- _25MYV _2WrB- _1atvN public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">At <strong>Brisbane General and Laser Dentists<\/strong>, we pride ourselves on making sure that all of our patients have top oral health, thanks to our team of <strong>general dentist in Coorparoo<\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-74aad\" class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1atvN _2QAo- _25MYV _2WrB- _1atvN public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">While having check-ups is important, there are many other important treatments we can offer when you visit us, to help keep your oral health in top shape. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-81cm7\" class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1atvN _2QAo- _25MYV _2WrB- _1atvN public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\"><strong>Root canals<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-9ee7t\" class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1atvN _2QAo- _25MYV _2WrB- _1atvN public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">While many people worry when they hear that they need a root canal, this procedure is actually extremely beneficial. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-15dob\" class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1atvN _2QAo- _25MYV _2WrB- _1atvN public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">Typically performed after an infection has afflicted the pulp of the tooth,a root canal removes the root and preserves the tooth, while also preventing the decay and infection from spreading. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-1qdh1\" class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1atvN _2QAo- _25MYV _2WrB- _1atvN public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">Our <strong>general dentist in Coorparoo<\/strong> may have to perform your root canal over 2 sessions, which can be up to an hour long. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-egq03\" class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1atvN _2QAo- _25MYV _2WrB- _1atvN public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\"><strong>Extractions<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-69rvp\" class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1atvN _2QAo- _25MYV _2WrB- _1atvN public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">When a tooth is too damaged by either extensive decay or injury, or there is extensive periodontal disease, our team may recommend an extraction. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-5h1d1\" class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1atvN _2QAo- _25MYV _2WrB- _1atvN public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">Don\u2019t worry!

If you notice an unpleasant odour, taste or are in extreme discomfort, see a medical professional as soon as possible. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-cbh3c\" class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1atvN _2QAo- _25MYV _2WrB- _1atvN public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">If your teeth have been extracted due to periodontal disease, our team may prescribe antibiotics, to reduce the likelihood of an infection occurring.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-es2lb\" class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1atvN _2QAo- _25MYV _2WrB- _1atvN public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\"><strong>Chipped teeth<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-48vta\" class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1atvN _2QAo- _25MYV _2WrB- _1atvN public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">When you chip a tooth, you need to see a member of our team; if left untreated, a chipped tooth can become very troublesome in relation to sensitivity. <\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-5leob\" class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1atvN _2QAo- _25MYV _2WrB- _1atvN public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">When you visit our team at <strong>Brisbane Dental<\/strong>, we have many solutions for fixing a chipped tooth or teeth, which will depend on the severity of the chip.<\/span><\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-7bi9q\" class=\"XzvDs _208Ie _1atvN _2QAo- _25MYV _2WrB- _1atvN public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\"><span class=\"vkIF2 public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr\">One of the most common ways we repair chipped teeth is through a composite filling and or dental bonding.
