Our Wollongong Dental Services
Here are some of the family dental treatments we can offer you in Wollongong.
Check-Up & Cleaning
Geared towards detecting any dental problems, our Wollongong dental check-ups are an essential part of general dentistry. Through this treatment, we can obtain information on the oral health of new patients. After, we can work closely with them to develop a plan that will keep their mouth healthy.
Though family dental check-ups are a crucial part of managing your oral health, they are not the only preventative service we offer Wollongong residents. We also offer cleaning services meant to remove tartar and plaque from your gums and teeth.
Depending on our assessment of your dental health, our professionals might recommend an additional fluoride treatment to strengthen your tooth enamel.
We recommend getting in touch with us to make a check-up appointment every six months. If you are at a higher risk of developing oral health issues like periodontal disease, you should consider having more frequent treatments.
If, after assessing and cleaning your teeth, your dentist finds a need for additional dental treatment, we have a team of experienced professionals who can assist with your dental needs.

While regular check-ups and cleanings will limit the likelihood of experiencing dental emergencies, emergencies can still happen. That’s why it is crucial to have a dentist in Wollongong that you can trust.

What To Do During a Dental Emergency
While the list of dental emergencies is almost endless, with each emergency needing patients to take different measures, we thought we’d share with you the steps to take when dealing with the emergencies that we often come across here in Wollongong.
Toothaches
- Start by rinsing your mouth with warm water to remove any debris or food particles.
- If this does not work, try flossing to remove the debris.
- If any swelling is present, you could use a cold compress to bring it down.
- Take pain relief medication and contact Dentist 4 U as soon as possible
Knocked-Out Tooth
- Using warm water, clean debris and tooth fragments from your mouth.
- Store the fragments in a container filled with milk. You could use water or your saliva if milk is unavailable. The important thing is to keep the fragments moist at all times.
- If there is bleeding, control it using gauze or a towel.
- If the lost tooth results from trauma, place a cold compress on the outside of your cheek and visit our family clinic for treatment as soon as possible.
Cuts To Mouth Tissue
- Using a towel or clean gauze, apply and maintain pressure for at least 10 minutes to control the bleeding.
- Use a cold compress to control any swelling.
- If you are bleeding uncontrollably, reach out to our Wollongong dentists right away.
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our dentists also offer an extensive range of cosmetic dentistry services to give patients the perfect smile they desire. Here are some of the cosmetic dental treatments we can offer Wollongong residents.
Dental Crowns
Dental crowns are artificial teeth used to permanently restore your smile and other cosmetic issues you might have. They are made to mimic the colour and shape of your tooth and can be used to:
- Fix a broken tooth
- Restore a worn-down tooth
- Strengthen a weak tooth
- Replace a broken tooth filling
Dental Implants
Dental implants consist of a titanium steel rod with a crown or bridge placed on top. They are the only cosmetic dental procedure that replaces your entire tooth, offering you several advantages in the process, including:
- More comfort
- Longer lifespan
- Restored speaking and eating
Teeth Whitening
One of the best ways to make a good first impression is flashing a bright, white smile. Through various factors such as aging, dental injuries, medications, and dark foods, we can end up with stained teeth.
Fortunately, thanks to the professional whitening services we have in Wollongong, you can get that bright smile you have always wanted. This comfortable, non-invasive procedure makes use of a whitening product to lift stains and dark spots. In a few sessions, a patient in Wollongong can make their teeth several shades whiter and their smile much brighter.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long will my first appointment last?
First appointments usually take an hour or more, depending on the patient’s current condition. This length already includes the initial check-up and dental cleaning. If additional diagnostics like X-ray is needed, it may take more time.
How do I get the most out of a dentist appointment?
For first appointments, we suggest you complete the entire comprehensive examination that our dentists will recommend. This includes close oral examination, screening for oral cancer, X-rays if needed, and full dental history. It’s also ideal to get dental cleaning whenever you visit the clinic, except for follow-up check-ups.
How long does it take to get a dentist appointment?
You can usually get a schedule within 3 days through our online booking system. You can select the schedule that will best suit your preferences. For urgent concerns, we have after-hours appointments which you can book using our emergency hotline 02 4214 4848.
How can I pay at Dentist 4 U?
We accept all major health funds such as WestFund, HCF, MediBank, UniHealth, etc. We also provide installment payment plans such as AfterPay, DentiCare, and OpenPay.

Yes, we are always available to accept emergency concerns. You can call our emergency hotline at 02 4214 4848.
Is cosmetic dentistry worth it?
Yes! Patients who have successfully received cosmetic dental treatments confirm that the improvements on their teeth and smile are very much worth it.
How safe are dental X-rays?
Like medical X-rays, dental X-rays are perfectly safe, quick, and painless. Dental X-rays are even safe for pregnant women because the amount of radiation is very low.
Is a dental implant painful?
The procedure of embedding a dental implant is painless because we will be using anaesthesia to numb the gums. After the procedure, it is normal to feel some pressure and discomfort but these are perfectly manageable with over-the-counter painkillers.
Why do my gums bleed?
Bleeding gums suggest gingivitis, the early stage of gum disease. We recommend setting an appointment with us so that we can take a closer look and apply the necessary treatment for your gums.
Do crowns feel like normal teeth?
At first, a crown may feel foreign, especially when you bite. However, you will get used to it after some time.
