Dental Treatment Under General Anaesthesia near Highfields

For some patients, dental treatment can be challenging due to dental anxiety, age or the nature of the treatment required. Withers Dental offers dental treatment under general anaesthesia at St Andrew’s Toowoomba Hospital, with dentists Dr Martin Ramlah and Dr Andrew Withers providing care, subject to clinical suitability and hospital arrangements.

General anaesthesia may be considered for some children and adults who find dental treatment difficult or require treatment that may be challenging to complete in a conventional dental setting. Your dentist will discuss your dental needs, medical history and individual circumstances, along with the available treatment options, to determine whether treatment under general anaesthesia may be appropriate.

If you or your child feels anxious about visiting the dentist, speak with our team about your concerns and whether treatment under general anaesthesia could be an option.

Same-day CEREC Crowns Near Highfields

digital dental technology

If you need to restore a damaged or weakened tooth, CEREC technology may allow a custom crown to be made. A CEREC crown is a ceramic crown that’s designed and made in our practice using computer-aided technology. It can cover and protect a tooth that’s cracked, broken or weakened by decay or a large filling. Depending on your circumstances, it may be fitted in the same appointment.

How a Same-day CEREC Crown is Made

Your dentist prepares the tooth by removing any damaged areas and shaping it to hold the crown.

A small handheld scanner takes a digital impression of the tooth and the teeth
around it, so there’s no impression putty to bite into.

The scan builds a 3D model, which your
dentist uses to design the crown on a
computer.

The crown is milled from a block of ceramic matched to the shade of your natural teeth.

Your dentist checks the fit and bonds the crown into place.

Same-day CEREC crowns suit many teeth, but not every case. Your dentist will check how much healthy tooth
remains, whether the gum needs treatment first and how your teeth meet when you bite.
