At Cambridge City Dental, we focus on prevention rather than intervention.
We believe that client education and preventative strategies are the best way to maintain good long-term oral hygiene.
Regular preventative care is essential to keeping your oral health in good shape and avoiding unnecessary medical or dental treatment. It is recommended to have a check-up with a general dentist at least twice a year so you can catch problems in their early stages.
If an issue is discovered, we will walk you through your options and create a personalised treatment plan for you. The Cambridge City Dental team are highly skilled in treating tooth decay, disease and trauma to the highest of standards so that you can be confident with your teeth and oral health.

Our General Dentistry Services
Our general dentistry services involve the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of a wide variety of conditions, disorders and diseases affecting the oral cavity, especially the teeth, gums and maxillofacial (jaw and face) region of the body.
The general dentistry services we offer at our West Leederville dental practice include:
Wisdom Teeth Removal
In your teenage years and early twenties, your wisdom teeth can begin to come through. Wisdom teeth can often present difficulties due to overcrowding, coming in crooked, or being unable to erupt.
Cambridge City Dental will be able to guide you to have your wisdom teeth effectively removed. If your wisdom teeth are beginning to cause you discomfort and pain, book an appointment with us today.
Custom Mouth Guards
For those who play high-impact sport, a mouth guard or splint is required to prevent damage to your teeth. Whether it’s boxing, rugby or AFL, never underestimate the need for teeth protection.
Cambridge City Dental can create custom-fitted mouth guards for the most comfortable form of teeth protection when playing sport.
Tooth Fillings
Fillings are necessary when one or several teeth have been damaged by decay. When this occurs, it’s important to close off the cavity to prevent bacteria causing further damage.
Before filling the tooth, your general dentist will consult with you about which material you want – your options include porcelain, composite resin, amalgam and gold.
Teeth Cleaning
At these appointments, your dentist will go through a comprehensive evaluation of your teeth, gums and surrounding structures. We’ll ensure that each tooth is examined, all gum areas are looked at and that there are no signs of potential problems. Then, we’ll remove all plaque and tartar buildup, leaving your teeth feeling cleaner than ever.
Sleep Dentistry
Our sleep dentistry treatments can help patients cope with feelings of anxiety and pain during their dental treatments.
Patients who have sensitive teeth, difficulty getting numb, a gag reflex, jaw soreness, back and neck problems, fear of needles or have had previous traumatic dental experiences, really benefit from sleep dentistry.
Our sleep dentistry treatments can help make your trip to the dentist easy and stress-free.
Tooth Extraction
When a tooth has become damaged or decayed and saving it with other solutions isn’t an option, an extraction can be performed. Our dentists want you to be comfortable and will make every effort to give pain-free care using an anaesthetic.
After the tooth has been removed, we can advise you on whether it needs to be replaced with a restoration. To avoid a tooth extraction, we recommend booking a general dentistry check-up every six months.
Family Dentistry
We have provided dental care to local Perth families since 1999. The range of general dentistry services at Cambridge City Dental are designed to meet the needs of your entire family. As children grow and their teeth develop, dental care appointments should be an essential part of your family’s healthcare routine.
Our friendly team are highly experienced in providing quality dental treatments for kids. Cambridge City Dental strive to help your child enjoy their visit while equipping you with the knowledge you need to keep your whole family’s teeth healthy.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Happens During a General Dentistry Check-Up?
All of our treatments the Cambridge City Dental team will perform begin with a general consultation and examination to assess the health of your mouth. A dental check-up is necessary to prevent long-term damage to your teeth. If we determine that treatment needs to take place, we will walk you through your options and draw up a treatment plan. In addition to general dentistry, we are also able to view all general treatments with a cosmetic and restorative approach, ensuring that you’re getting the best of all worlds.
Why is a Regular Dental Check-Up So Important?
Booking an appointment to see your dentist every six months is the easiest way to maintain healthy teeth and gums.
