At Collingwood Dental Practice, our focus is on prevention over cure. Good oral health starts with routine care, and our dental clinic in Richmond and Collingwood preventive dentistry services are designed to keep your teeth, gums, and overall oral structures healthy for life. We believe that regular dental visits, early detection, and proactive treatment—including our dental new patient offer—are the best ways to avoid complex and costly dental problems down the track.
Whether you’re an individual, parent, or carer looking for trusted, family-friendly care in the heart of Collingwood, our experienced dental team is here to support you with personalised preventive treatments tailored to your needs.

Fluoride treatment is an excellent way to reduce the need for fillings in the future.
A professional clean is more than just a polish—it’s a critical part of preventive care. Even with excellent brushing and flossing habits, plaque and tartar can accumulate in hard-to-reach areas.
Our dental hygienists:
We recommend hygiene appointments every 6 to 12 months, depending on your needs.
Teeth grinding, also known as bruxism, can lead to:
We offer custom-made occlusal splints (nightguards) to protect your teeth from the damaging effects of grinding. These appliances are comfortable, durable, and designed to reduce muscle tension and joint stress while you sleep.
