General Dentistry
Comprehensive care for the whole family - from routine check-ups and cleans to fillings, X-rays, and personalised oral health plans.
Regular dental check-ups and professional cleans are the foundation of good oral health. At Shine Dental Newington, we provide thorough, personalised general dentistry care for patients of all ages - helping you maintain healthy teeth and gums for life.
During a standard check-up, Dr. Cho will examine your teeth, gums, and soft tissues - looking for early signs of decay, gum disease, and other issues that are far easier to treat when detected early. A professional hygiene clean removes tartar and plaque buildup that brushing and flossing alone cannot reach.
We take an honest approach to treatment planning. If a filling, extraction, or other treatment is needed, Dr. Cho will explain what is required, why, and what the alternatives are - before any work is carried out. You will always receive a clear explanation of costs upfront.
Shine Dental Newington is a preferred provider for CBHS and NIB. We accept HICAPS for on-the-spot health fund claiming.
