General Dentistry in Altona North
At Altona Gate Dental, we take a proactive approach to keeping your teeth and gums healthy – not just treating issues as they arise, but preventing them altogether. From check-ups and cleans to fillings and root canal therapy, our team provides thorough, compassionate care for patients of all ages.
Our Approach to General Dentistry
We believe healthy smiles start with trust and education. At Altona Gate Dental, our team takes time to explain every step of your care, helping you understand what’s happening and why. We’re family-friendly, prevention-focused, and committed to helping you maintain great oral health for life.

Our General Dentistry Services
From preventive check-ups to restorative treatments, our general dentistry services cover everything you need to keep your smile healthy and confident. Whether it’s your child’s first visit, a routine clean, or managing more complex issues like root canals, we provide gentle, thorough care designed for comfort and long-term results.
Check-Up & Clean
Regular visits are the foundation of lifelong oral health. Our Oral Health Therapists provide professional cleanings, fluoride treatments, and gum therapy – all with a gentle touch.
We’ll chart your teeth and gums, check for early signs of decay, and take X-rays when needed to ensure nothing goes unnoticed. For children, we make every visit fun and educational, helping them build strong habits from a young age.
Occlusal Splints
Do you wake up with a sore jaw or tension headaches? You may be grinding your teeth at night – a condition known as bruxism.
Our custom occlusal splints (night guards) are designed to protect your teeth and relieve pressure on the jaw. Each splint is custom-made for comfort and precision, helping reduce wear, pain, and muscle strain.
Dental Fillings
Cavities may be sneaky, but they’re easily stopped in their tracks. Our composite (tooth-coloured) fillings restore your tooth’s strength and appearance while preventing further decay.
We remove the decay gently, clean the area, and restore the tooth’s natural shape – all with minimal discomfort.
Root Canals
We know, the words “root canal” sound scary. But at Altona Gate Dental, they’re nothing to fear. Modern techniques and local anaesthesia make the procedure comfortable and pain-free, often relieving rather than causing discomfort.
We remove the infection, clean the inner tooth, and seal it to prevent further damage. A final crown or filling restores your tooth’s strength and appearance.
