Helping You Optimise Oral Health

At Nelson Bay Dental, we are passionate about empowering patients with the knowledge they need to protect their oral health. Our dental professionals can provide an array of services to help you improve the appearance and cleanliness of your teeth and gums. We also have invested in advanced technology – including an EMS Airflow machine – to ensure your hygiene visit is both thorough and comfortable.


In general, we recommend scheduling a hygiene visit at least once every six months. However, if you suffer from a gum or tooth condition, more regular check ups may be required. At Nelson Bay Dental, our dental professional will provide you with a comprehensive clean, identify any areas of concern, and provide you with the information needed to optimise your oral health.
