Dentist in MackayWhy should you choose Walkerston Dental?

We are a family owned and fully accredited dental clinic as part of the Walkerston GP SuperClinic, Queensland. We value the importance of being a family operated dentist in Mackay. We create a family friendly environment by welcoming you and your family into our Walkerston Dental family. We care about your results, and when you visit us for the first time we will talk you through our process and any treatments you are interested in having or any that we recommend.

Why cleaning your teeth at the dentist is important

Here at our dental clinic, we use a modern ultrasonic scaler to gently remove the plaque and tartar build-up that can form in the nooks of your teeth over time, even if you are cleaning and flossing your teeth regularly at home. This machine is virtually pain free. It is recommended to visit the dentist in Mackay to get a thorough cleaning done at least every 6 months to a year.

Why should you visit the dentist if you have gum disease?

If you have chronic gum disease it is recommended to have your teeth cleaned even more often. While gum diseases are typically painless, there is research linking it to cardiovascular disease and other systemic conditions. It also can lead to early tooth loss and much more invasive and costly dental procedures down the road.

Creating healthy habits young

It is important for children and young adults to learn healthy habits about their teeth from a young age. If parents can start teaching their children how to take care of their teeth at home and have them visit the dentist in Mackay early on, then it will help prevent them from needing other dental procedures later in life.

All treatment carries risks. Individual consultation is required with one of our practitioners to ensure that the treatment is right for you.
