Comprehensive Examination
Maude Street Dental thrives in providing proper oral health for patients; attested by our comprehensive check-ups where we examine every part of your oral health. Our all-inclusive check-ups guarantee optimal dental care for patients.
Gum Disease Management
Periodontal disease, otherwise known as gum disease can vary from mild inflammation to severe forms, bringing about permanent damage of soft tissues and bone which support teeth. Leaving gum disease untreated can cause severe pain leading to the loss of teeth. Research findings indicate a linkage between periodontal disease and systemic conditions including cardiovascular diseases and diabetes.
Dental Crowns
A crown is a form of restoration that assumes the shape of a tooth, encasing the whole tooth surface so as to improve the appearance and strength of a tooth. Severe tooth break-down requires the use of crowns since a filling is incapable of providing the necessary strength and support. In such cases, our Shepparton dentist provides patients with custom made Australian ceramic crowns for beautiful smiles.
Root Canal Treatment
Despite the painful experience often associated with root canal treatment, Maude Street Dental makes every effort to ensure that you’re comfortable during your treatment. The inflammation or infection of the pulp inside a tooth requires root canal treatment. Patients can experience continuous pain, persistent or extreme sensitivity to cold or hot foods or drinks. Tooth discolouration and facial swelling are also associated symptoms.

Dental Extractions
Maude Street Dental believes that the seamless maintenance of a natural smile and teeth is based on retaining our natural teeth. However, tooth extraction can be the only treatment option available in some cases. Tooth extraction is necessary when there is heavy tooth break down or decay, severe periodontal disease and split roots or vertical cracks.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Wisdom teeth, also referred to as third molars appear last in the mouth, often between 18-25 years and can be a major cause of pain and discomfort when left unattended. Maude Street Dental dentists advise patients first have an OPG to determine the health and positioning of a patient’s wisdom teeth. When a need for extraction is identified, an appointment can be organized for safe and efficient removal by our dentists.
Custom Mouthguards
A mouthguard is crucial for protection during contact sports or where teeth grinding is involved. Mouthguards are custom made such that there is fitting and protection that provides the most benefit whilst also being comfortable to use. Having seen emergency patients with sporting injuries, the team at Maude Street Dental recognises the importance of using a mouthguard for the prevention of injury.
