General Mobile Dental Check Ups
Regular dental visits are imperative for treating and preventing gum disease and dental decay, particularly in elderly patients. For patients in aged care facilities or nursing homes, or patients with mental or physical limitations, dental care used to be difficult or even impossible to obtain.
Fortunately, Aged Care Dentistry’s specialised knowledge and state-of-the-art equipment enable us to provide mobile dental care that is equivalent to a traditional dental office.

We Answer Your FAQs
Most dentists recommend patients have at least two dental checkups and cleanings each year.
We treat patients from Meadow Springs south of Mandurah to Yanchep north of Joondalup. Our Perth mobile dentist can provide a detailed breakdown of options and costs after a dental assessment.
Dental checkups are essential for both natural teeth or dentures. Appointments every six or 12 months are recommended for everyone, including individuals who wear dentures. Regular dental checkups help prevent potential complications.
Even if your teeth feel and look fine, regular dental checkups are still important. Even if your teeth appear fine on the surface, problems may exist that you cannot see or feel. It is imperative to recognise problems such as tooth decay as early as possible to prevent possible complications.
