Frequently asked questions
The most common questions about appointments, payment and treatments.
General
What are your opening hours?
We are open 09:00–20:00 on weekdays and 10:00–17:00 on Saturdays; closed on Sundays. During opening hours we arrange same-day examinations for acute pain.
Do you accept private health insurance?
We obtain pre-approval for the private and supplementary health insurance policies we have agreements with. Call us with your policy number before your appointment to check your dental cover.
Treatments
Is implant treatment painful?
The procedure is done under local anaesthetic, so you do not feel pain during it. Mild pain and swelling may follow for 2–3 days, controlled with prescribed painkillers.
How long does an implant take?
With enough bone, it usually takes 2–4 months from placement to the crown. Bone grafting can extend this; we give you an estimated timeline at planning.
Does whitening damage teeth?
Done under supervision at the right concentration, it does not permanently harm enamel. Temporary sensitivity for a few days can occur.
Can clear aligners be seen?
Aligners are transparent and not noticeable unless looked at closely. In some cases small tooth-coloured attachments are added, which are usually invisible too.
How many sessions does a root canal take?
Most are completed in 1–2 sessions of 45–90 minutes. An abscess or retreatment of an old root canal can add sessions.
When should my child first see a dentist?
When the first tooth appears or by the first birthday at the latest. The first visit is for getting to know each other; we guide you on care at home.
Appointments
Can I book online?
Yes. Choose a treatment, dentist and day on the appointment page; our coordinator will call you during opening hours to confirm the time. You can also message us on WhatsApp.
Can I cancel my appointment?
Please cancel or reschedule at least 24 hours in advance so the slot can go to another patient. A call or WhatsApp message is enough.
What should I do with acute toothache?
Call during opening hours and we will arrange a same-day examination. Out of hours, if you have rapidly increasing facial swelling, fever or difficulty swallowing, go to the nearest hospital emergency department.
